This video is a quick tutorial on how to knit a yarn over knitwise. A yarn over is a simple knitting increase that creates a lovely eyelet. A lot of lace patterns use this to great effect. Unlike almost all knitting increases, a yarn over has no slant. Here's how to knit it.
Step 1: Wrap the yarn around the needle counter-clockwise
Step 2: Continue with your knitting pattern (you may want to secure the wrap with your index finger before you continue)
Pay attention: A yarn over is just a simple wrap. The following stitch is not part of the yarn over! You can close the eyelet by purling the yo through the back loop in the return row.

Perfect

[@ReallyJillRogoff]

This is less confusing than the English way of making a yo. Thank-you.

[@nimbleneedlestwo]

yeah it is. I mean.it's basically couldn't get any easer, if you as me ^_°

[@rachelar6]

Thanks! Do you have a video about knitting YO on the next row (so closing them)? Like in a hat I have yo and the next round I need to knit them and no matter what they seem really open when doing this cable pattern

[@nimbleneedlestwo]

well, typically that is the way it's intended to. But you can knit them through the back loop to close them a bit.

@@nimbleneedlestwo thanks! Yeah they didn't say knit through the back loop but it seemed like I should be to make the stitch tighter lol
