Thank you, I don't knit continental but just saw your video on M1A which definitely works for me knitting English style. I do have some speed, but nothing like your continental style. I've studied videos, etc, Your continental knitting is just so effortless and fluid. Good for you. I'm sure you get so much more done. Thank you for these videos. Just ordered some yarn from JB Wool and it came so fast. Thank you!
wow, I have been knitting all kinds of things for over 50 years and never heard of an away or towards increase??? beautifully demonstrated and explained, thanx I put it in saved videos ... where would you most likely encounter the request to be using this? Is it simply a make one?
Hi Barbara! Yes - This is a perfect increase to use if your pattern simply calls for make one, without specifying. We are focusing on these right now because our Blanket Club subscription pattern uses them, so we thought a tutorial would be helpful! Another customer suggested using the M1A for the thumb gusset in mittens.
@@jimmybeanswool thank you ... I love how knitting has become a fine art with all these refinements and paying attention to stitch slants and every possible nuance. I appreciate your knitting and teaching taents!
I've been trying to figure out these two stitches for the new Stained Glass blanket KAL. I think it would be simpler to wrap the working yarn over the LH needle either from front to back (M1A) or back to front (M1T) then slip this loop purlwise to RH needle. It seems to me to do the same thing. Or am I missing something? On a test swatch it seemed to work wonderfully well, and it's really s much much easier increase than M1L and M1R. The M1A leans left; the M1T leans right. And the fabric stays lovely and flat and even, which isn't the case with either KFB or M1L & M1R. I have done the first five rows of that pattern no kidding SIX times now, and I get all this weird laddering on the WS. I am beginning to suspect that my stitch markers are too wide and that's creating problems. But I'm tearing my hair out . . .
Hi Catherine! If it works, it works, we say! The laddering on your blanket is actually normal to begin with. It will work itself out once the triangle gets bigger! Here's a link to some videos from the designer, explaining. You can also email us if you need any more help! ruclips.net/video/f4iQtEDH-iI/видео.html ruclips.net/video/ZV_o75hA4gw/видео.html
