A very late comment: (1 decade late!)
I'd like to comment that the narrator's voice is relaxing & soothing to listen to. Thank you for not adding background music to your videos.
This channel has some of the best video and easiest to understand tutorials for loom knitting. Thank you!
Hi Cassie, leaving your stitches a little loose is not a problem--it will actually make it easier to knit the stitches. The scrap yarn holds the "cast on" edge to keep it neat until you're ready to finish the ends. See the "Loom Knitting: How to Bind Off for Double Knitting" video to see when it's removed and finished. Hope that helps!
I have to say LionBrandYarn i had little troubles find the right video that shows what you did. thank you
@CurlyJuliaful Hi there, during the cast-on, the stitches will be on the loose-side for double-knitting. (This is because you'll go back and then finish off this edge with a crochet chain bind-off, which you can see in the double-knitting bind-off video.) In the meantime, it's fine to continue working on your project! Hope that helps!
Hi, Cassie. In this video, we used Martha Stewart Crafts Alpaca Blend, which is a bulky weight (category 5) yarn. A thicker yarn might help you get better results.
Hi there, you'll take it off during the bind-off process. Go to our video "Loom Knitting: How to Bind Off for Double Knitting" to see how that works. Hope that helps!
This video helped alot, and I also noticed my stitches were very loose, but I think I just need to pull a little tighter. But, i'm curious, why the scrap yarn in the beginning part? When you do take that out? What purpose does it serve?
What do you do with the slip not that you put on the green peg? Do you just leave it there? You don't knit that slip knot onto one of the pink pegs?
In addition to my last comment: In your next video: How to double knit it shows the slip knot still on the green peg but then in the video for: Loom Knitting: How to Bind Off for Double Knitting - the slip knot is not on the green peg anymore. Where did it go? Please respond - thank you.
Is it possible to leave the link to the other videos on Double Knitting in the box description? It would really facilitate the research. It would be very appreciated.
I'm wondering if the issue i'm running into is that i'm trying to double knit with a size 4 worsted yarn, acrylic, even on the small pegs with them beside each other (not skipping holes). it's just too thin i think. i just can't duplicate a double knit piece on the loom that looks like one i can make with needles.
When you're done what are you supposed to do? And what to do with the scrap yarn?
I've done exactly what you have showed in your video numerous times. It is TOO loose and not the look I want. I'm using a 4 but using 2 strands. Help I can not figure this out and I am beyond frustrsted.
when/how do you take the anchor stitch off?
Hi. I need help. Why is my loom so loose? It looks like spider web after the first weave.
Are you making a double blanket
This looks so easy, and yet it's not working for me! What am I doing wrong? The stitches are coming out SO loose. I swear I'm doing exactly what your doing! The only difference is that I have my loom set up like in the book, not in the video. (with green pegs in a row, no spaces in between, instead of your pink pegs with spaces)
