Question: i want to make a triangle shawl that is long and narrow not equal on all sides. Do you have a video of that? I believe it requires more than 1 increase per row. Thank you for any help you can give. Your video is excellent. The camera work and clarity are very good.
DK will work well - for a warm winter shawl. I like to use a 100cm/40’ circular needle. I think the longer straight needles might work too (like 14’) or the shorter ones for a smaller shawl. :)
hello Irina, i would like to ask you a question as i m trying to follow a pattern for a knitting helmet 1x1 ribbing and it says: to * inc. 1 st in each of the next 2 sts and then continue ribbing for a number of stitches before repeating from *...So i assume it means to increase 1 kfb stich for one knit stich and 1 kfb for a purl stich, am i correct? I tried that but the result is visible at the purl stitch increase, so i 'm kindly asking you what is the best invisible increase for 1x1 ribbing (for a purl stitch mainly) because in the knit stitch the 1 kfb increase works fine. Thank you
Hi Nella, it seems that in the pattern they do not specify the style of the increase (kfb or other). For the purl stitch try this: purl that stitch first, then insert the left needle tip under the horizontal top loop of the purl stitch in the row right below the stitch you have just purled, purl into that loop as if it were a purl stitch. It should look like two purl stitches side-by-side. Let me know how it worked. :)
Actually, just missed the fact, you are increasing the 1x1 rib. The best way to increase then is maintaining the knit-purl sequence. So it continues looking like a rib.
You can do this: knit a stitch, insert the left needle tip under the bridge between the knit and purl stitches from back to front, purl into this loop. Insert the right needle tip under the loop of the stitch below your purl stitch and place this loop onto the left needle tip. Knit into this loop from left to right. Purl the purl stitch. This should maintain the knit/purl sequence of the 1x1 rib, and avoid the holes. Let me know if that’s what you asked about, and how it worked. :)) ruclips.net/video/-LKEBC-9rGM/видео.html
@@irinarevo Exactly Irina, the point is to maintain the knit-purl sequence and yes the pattern doesn't specify the kind of the increase. I saw your video and I would really like to thank you so so much for the help and yes this was what i wanted to know. You are the only one who does such a great job with the videos and all the clear information you are giving us without confusing the viewer. Thank you again
Great video. Clear, great for a beginner but also for a long time knitter. Thankyou
You’re most welcome and thank you!😊
The best looking one was #5 but as a beginner I will try making a shawl using method #1 to get the little eyelet on one edge. Great teacher!
Thank you! #1 is a great choice - I hope you really enjoy making it!
Thank you very much! Very helpful! K.
Thank you, Katerina!

Thank you very much! I don’t have a video on such a shawl. There are many patterns on Ravelry you might want to check out.
Hello. Can this scarf work up like a kerchief scarf?
Hello, yes!
Could I use straight needles for this project? And a 300 yard dk weight yarn?
