How to Knit Front and Back | Kfb & Kfbf Beginner Knitting Lesson | Increase Techniques
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2024
- This beginner tutorial walks you through the steps of knitting a kfb (knit front and back) and a kfbf (knit front, back and then front again) increase.
Increases are essential in knitting as they allow you to add more stitches to your needles mid-way through your project; allowing you to make an infinite number of knitted shapes.
The kfb and kfbf are 'left-leaning bar increases' because a) they cause stitches to lean a little to the left in your knitting, and b) a 'bar' of yarn is visible on your knitting where the increase occurs; they are visible increase techniques.
The kfb is a single increase, and the kfbf is a double increase.
I hope this lesson is useful...thanks for watching :)

You're the first person who's actually showed the process of turning the needles around to the back to make the increase....and in a speed that doesn't cause whiplash! Thank you!
Glad you found it useful!
Really easy to follow and easy to understand you too. Love that you used large needles and yarn. Useless to try and learn on minuscule needles and yarn you can't see! Thank you!
Thank you :D I'm glad it was useful!
Thank you! I liked the explanation of what exactly a Kfb is exactly and explaining it is not an invisible increase, as well as the slow pace of the example. This is a great beginner tutorial.
Glad it was helpful! :D
I'm self taught and have been avoiding kfb patterns for months because I couldn't figure out how to do it. Thank you so much for posting this and doing it in slow mode. I really appreciate it.
You are so welcome! I'm glad it helped you :)
After watching a number of kfb tutorials, this one is what made the most sense to me!
Excellent! Thanks for watching :)
Very clear and slow enough to watch and memorize the first time! I thank you for that.
You're very welcome!
Thanks for showing with the big needles

Thank you for doing it with big needles. I can see what you’re doing better.

Thanks for this. Your demonstration is clear & comprehensible. Explanations of this technique in my knitting books extremely confusing; had me about to shred my knitting!
Haha thank you! Glad I could help 🙂
Another easy to follow, clear and useful tutorial. Really loving your knitting based videos as I am a self taught newish knitter. Hope you continue 👍 Thanks :)
Thanks very much...I will be continuing with the knitting videos for the foreseeable :)

Tysm ⚘
Finally understood it:))
Excellent!
Great tutorial.🌟 I have trouble joining in the round on circular needles, any plans for a tutorial in future?
I am trying to cover as many flat techniques as possible first before moving onto circular knitting..so I will be doing a tutorial on that, but it'll be a while off yet I'm afraid. Thanks for watching :)
Great thank you.
Josephine Ward Thank you 🙏🏼
great video
really good
Thank you for the explanation. What kind of circular needles are you using? I have been considering getting a set.
I'm using the "KnitPro Symfonie Interchangeable (chunky) Needle Set", and I like them :)
Hii I know it’s 2023 but what does kfb, k1, kfb - 5 stitches mean??? Like 5 stitches how?
Hi! It means you'll have 5 stitches after knitting that row. Before the row you'd have 3 stitches, after that row you'd have 5 stitches (since you'll then have done 2 kfb increases) :)
@@RokoleeDIY I figured it out by myself but thank you so much so replying!!😊
Your needles are beautiful where did you get them
They are 'Knit Pro' needles :) Thanks for watching
