    Oh my gosh, this is a REVELATION. Not only is this an incredibly well-made instructional video, but you have saved my life: I seem to have fallen into the "backwards" purl combined with the western knit stitch on my own, not even realizing it wasn't "normal". Rib stitches were much easier, yes, but I was finding the purling after the first round of rib stitches was a struggle, those stitches were "tight", and I couldn't figure out why. I'm starting a sweater project for the first time (co-incidentally, it is and Anker sweater), with thinner yarn than I am used to using, and I just can't seem to make it work with those tight purl stitches. I've unraveled my first two rows (of 96 stitches) at least 3 times since I started. I was ready to give up last night, but woke up this morning and decided to do a you-tube search on rib stitch with combined knitting. Yours was the first video I found. I never realized you had to knit into the _back _of the purl stitch! I'm about to do a practice round on some scrap yarn, but then I will re-start my sweater project with a new enthusiasm. I cannot thank you enough.

    I just got my chiaogoo interchangable set. I naturally was combination knitting the correct way. I thought I had to unlearn it but found as long as I knew about the leg position, the anatomy of the stitches it was fine. I wasn't following a pattern. Just trying out stitches and did some 2x2 ribbing. I've been crocheting a long time so that helps. I love it. I'm so happy. Now to scour my books and patterns I have saved for a pattern to try.

    Very nice video and techhnique. Nice, even stitches. This method can be employed wherever K turns to P. To reduce the larger last-K stitch, twist the 1st purl in a series as in this video. The edges of your cabling will look great, too. Just remember to pay attention to stitch mount on the next round. While working flat, Ktbl where you come to the back side of a twisted P, and twist the next stitch if a P

    I’m a new knitter and I was purling clockwise and didn’t even realize it. It felt so much more comfortable, I thought I was purling counter clockwise (not really looking at what I was doing obviously) I thought it was “wrong” and my purls looked so strange and I thought that was why so I fixed my purls by actually purling counter clockwise and saw that my purls finally looked right but super loose. Now I’m realizing it’s actually combination knitting and I was fine BUT I was always purling through the front and that’s why it was looking so weird instead of through the back. Thank you! Purling is sooo much easier in combination knitting. I did not know I had to do it through the back.

      It’s great to use on ribbing. Once you go back to stockinette, your first knit row may need you to reorientate the previously purled stitches. To do this knit the ones that you were purling before though the back loop on the first row.

    Nice to be reminded how combination knitting works. It does shorten the path of the yarn from the right needle to the new stitch so that tension may be improved. For a new knitter, it may be a little confusing because you must understand stitch anatomy (e.g. what a twisted stitch looks like).

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  3 года назад

      Yes, you are so right. It took me a little while to understand stitch anatomy too. I remember knitting my first flax light and deciding I didn't like 1x1 rib and did the ribbing with twisted rib instead after watching a number of tutorials on how to improve my ribbing, but was very overwhelmed at the time about the idea of combination knitting when it was all so new to me!

    Hi there, I have been looking into learning combination knitting since I wanted to purl faster than what continental purling has to offer. Am I right in saying that for knitting ribbing in the round using combination method, you would have to 'untwist' the purl stitches every other round to make sure they are mounted correctly? (so rounds 2,4,6,8,10 etc..)? Thanks again for this tutorial! It has helped me grasp this concept better!!

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  Год назад +1

      Hi! The way I continental purl for the rib in this video ensures that the purl stitches are not twisted. Once I do the set up row, I then purl through the back leg in the continental fashion to make sure that the stitches don’t get twisted. If you need to transition to knitting in the round after the purling is finished, you would knit the purl stitches through the back loop on the first round which would reorient the stitch to the usual structure. Once this round was done, you would go back to knitting normally through the front leg. I hope this helps!

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  2 года назад

      That’s right, the stitches will remain oriented the same way if you wrap the yarn the way I showed and so each purl stitch will be purled through the back loop. If you’re moving to stockinette after the ribbing, you would knit those stitches through the back loop for the first round to reorientate them again.

    Confused. Are you doing a set up row and then the second row again and again or only one set up and all the rest are thru the back on the purl?????

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  10 месяцев назад

      When you start the ribbing you need to do the set up row once and the rest of the rib rows are done with the second row. I mention this at about the 5 minute mark where I say ‘this and all subsequent rib rows’. I hope that helps ☺️

    Is the third round like the set up round the n?

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  22 дня назад

      If you're knitting in the round, the third and subsequent rounds are k1, purl though back loop clockwise. In combination knitting, the purl stitch is created by wrapping the yarn clockwise around the needle. This is different from the traditional purl stitch, where the yarn is wrapped counterclockwise.

    I am looking for a way to knit in rib in the round with no purling is that possible ?

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  4 месяца назад

      Yes, it's possible to knit ribbing in the round without purling! You can try using a technique called the 'helical' or 'spiral' ribbing method. It involves alternating between knitting and slipping stitches to create a ribbed texture without ever needing to purl. There are some great tutorials out there that can guide you through the process. Happy knitting!

    Would there be any difference in doing 2x2 ribbing? Is it possible to change to knitting through the back loop( higher loop) and purling through the front for ribbing?

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  2 года назад

      I find that my 2x2 looks much neater when I knit and purl in the usual way so haven’t needed to use this technique. If you knit though the back loop and wrap in the opposite direction that could work, otherwise you’ll end up with twisted rib which is also quite a beautiful alternative to a standard 1x1 rib.

      I reorient the stitches back to the normal set up on my final round of 1x1 rib by purling the usual way to get ready for the bind off row.

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  Год назад

      Yes, of course you can. I find I don’t need to use this for anything but 1x1 rib as other ribbing (2x2 etc) turn out neat, but it can be used for any ribbing.

    wow i love how loose you knit, the fabric you are knitting has really nice drape to it. I have a very hard time relaxing during knitting but I still love it, and love seeing how other people have their favourite methods.

    • @FibreBound
      @FibreBound  2 года назад

      Thank you for your lovely comment Mike, tension really is a funny thing. If you're new to knitting it will take a little time to get to a point where the process is relaxing and you can still maintain a consistent tension. I remember that this was my biggest issue when I was first learning a few short years ago, but with time and a variety of projects, you will find your rhythm. Best of luck!
