If you want to learn how to knit on double-pointed knitting needles, kindly watch this video: ruclips.net/video/3hV8ZY8VSHw/видео.html Please be aware that this is a slightly improved version of the basic technique I previously shared in other videos.
Hello there. hope you are doing well. So i was trying to do lace and I ran into some major difficulties - like not knowing what to do when I make a mistake. With regular knitting with knits and purls, I can ladder down or rip back my work a few rows and im good to go. but with lace .....im kinda stuck. There are all these yarn overs and knit togethers and stuff. So I dont know what im gonna do. So for now, I am selecting patterns that have what I call "rest" rows. That means that pattern repeats have like one or two rows of just knits and purls with nothing fancy going on. So If I make a mistake I can rip back to those rows and take it from there. But someday I would like to knit those patterns which have like overlapping leaves and whatnot (with no rest rows). But I want to know how to correct mistakes in them. I learnt about "lifelines". But, they done seem to work for those patterns.Dunno, maybe I am doing them wrong. it would be really helpful if you could do a video on that, or direct me to some good videos or websites that I can educate myself with. Thanks :)
@@wrongturnVfor lace IS complicated. You can also redo whole section of a work. here on my channel i have a video on fixing mistakes. maybe check that out.
@@NimbleNeedles Thanks for the reply. I know how to correct mistakes in regular knitting, i was getting confused by the yarn overs and stuff. I had to redo a section but I was trying to figure out if there was a way to avoid that in case I want to do a larger section. Anyway. Ill still check out that video, maybe something in there will help
I have been knitting and crocheting for decades (I'm 62), and I still learn something from almost every one of your videos. That last technique is amazing. Thank you, Norman. A person is never too old to learn.
Thanks for the tutorial Norman. A tutorial on magic loop would be really helpful. You help us to understand why certain techniques work better than others and that's what makes your tutorial's so different to many others. 🙂
Thank you for the work you do. I like how you take time to explain everything and not rush through or talk too fast. Your videos are a great help to me. By the way, your English is very good.
The timing of this video is impeccable. I’ve literally been searching videos on this the last few days, as I just got my circulars. it’s probably a small point of difference, but it bothers me a lot that most videos don’t knit continental style. this video is most helpful!
Wow Norman, I’ve been knitting since I was 8 years old, I’m nearly 67 now & still learning tips, but most of all I’m learning wonderful knitting tips from you...... thank you so much ❤️
Hi Norman. Thank you so much for making these videos. I have been knitting for 40 years and you have shown me a few things I never knew. Yes please do make a video about magic loop. I read about it once, but watching you knit and the concise explanations you give make it so much easier to learn. Thanks again. Barb from Ottawa, Canada
Hello Norman, you are my HERO!!! I have sever arthritis that is making my fingers crooked I used to knit socks on DPN’s and fast, well I picked up my needles and sock yarn, and I started, only to come to a fast stop, you see my pointer finger has contracted and I have no control of it, so I set out 3 weeks ago finding a new way, I tried so many video’s here on You tube, none of them worked for me, well on the last day to figure it out, and if I could not, time to send the sock yarn and needles out to the rubbish, but ALAS I stumbled upon your magic loop technique, two tries and I have it down!!!!! You are my HERO Thank You!!! I will go watch your other videos when my fingers need a break.
I sure hope it does! you might want to add one additional selvage stitch if you plan to close things with a matress stitch. Simply decrease by one in the row where you join in the round and use the additional stitch for the seaming.
I love your channel! so easy to understand and so innovative! I'd love to see a seamless knitting in the round in fairisle. Thank you for making us all better knitters...one video at a time. :)
that's what I can offer you: ruclips.net/video/DAMWLXdJFkI/видео.html Knitting perfectly jogless fair isle is impossible. BUt there are a couple of tricks to make it less noticeable.
My knitting mistakes have all been explained after watching all your videos, you demonstrate samples which are very helpful! You are a fantastic teacher :)
Thank you, Norman! I was frustrated trying to cast onto a circular needle, so I worked my first several rows of ribbing on straight needles before transferring to the circular needle and joining. I thought I had come up with something original! Still haven't seamed the gap, thank you for demonstrating that.
Dear Norman, I love you so much!!! You are always the solution to all of my knitting challenges! You have a way of understanding and explaining things so unique and utterly clear! I swear I come to your channel every time I need to learn how to do something. And every time I follow your guidance, things turn out PERFECT. Massive hugs from Argentina!
Wow! Glad I stumbled upon this video, at 6:00 it explains how when I change color in the round they’re always slanted even though I started changing in the beginning of the marker. Great work!! Very astute demonstration 🫶
Excellent tutorial, as always. Thank you for sharing all your expertise. As an advanced beginner (on a good day) who learned to knit via you-tube, I wish I'd found you much sooner!
Thank you for such a clear video. I would be very interested in a video about magic loop. It looks very intimidating and I've never gotten the hang of it. Thank you!!💖
Hello Norman, I've knit socks for awhile and love the tip about slipping that first stitch to the other needle and pulling a stitch over it to join the round. Will remove the stress I have starting a new sock:) An aside: Just notice something about picking stitches that has me rethinking about using that technique now. When i tried picking, it created too tight a stitch. What I noticed here, is that it's not the picking causing my issue, it was that I did not allow enough space between needles when slipping the new stitch off the needle, hence my knitting was too tight. Another thank you :)
hmm? but I also show circular needles in this video? Or do you mean like small diamter circular needles. There's literally no difference to the first method I showed. What exactly are you looking for?
I'm a beginner and so far I've knitted two scarves and a simple sweater for my cat, knitting in the round is a bit scary but I really want to try something new for my fourth project 👀
I pull the short piece through the opposite needle, wrap it around to the knit side pull snug and knit the 2 pieces of yarn into the pattern a few knits. no more hole or separation.
I just wanted to say „Thank you!“ for all your extremely helpful and well structured videos. I am going to brave some socks now after having created a small supply of coasters and dishcloths in the past days. Though my family has deemed the dishcloths too pretty to be used…. 😅
@@NimbleNeedles I did, thank you! It‘s the one I intend to follow. =) I have already made and washed my little sample swatch and came here to make sure my first sock-row would be a nice one.
Please, please do a full tutorial on knitting the Magic Loop on circular needles! I love your style of teaching; it (almost) makes me feel as though I can conquer this technique. Haha
Thank you again for a fabulous video. I learn something from you with every video I watch. You even showed making the backward loop 😊 I do like to use a magic loop for some projects especially at the beginning and/or end of a project or for the leg portion of a sock. A magic loop tutorial would be most wellcome.
Hello Norman, thank you so much for sharing your knitting wisdom! I discovered your channel just a few days ago and I've learned so much. I started my current project over because I wanted to use some of the techniques I learned from you, and it's already looking much better. Bless you for the wonderful work you are doing here!
One thing on the first method that was not mentioned that took me a minute to figure out on my own, the way the video shows does NOT keep the stitches per needle even after joining. The extra stitch you cast on NEEDS to be accounted for on the first needle you start slipping stitches with to divide them. For example, the pattern I'm working calls for 6 stitches on the first needle, 8 on the second, and leaving 6 on the third. The first time I followed this video, I did 6, then 8, which left my 7 on the original cast on needle. Once I did the invisible join, I had 5, 8, and 7, because the join MOVES a stitch from the original to the first dividing needle. Had to start over. So make sure your extra stitch is counted on that first needle you start dividing the stitches with.
sorry about that. I thought that it was kind of obvious that if you move one stitch there is one stitch less. But yeah, you absolutely have to calculate that in :)
I was just wondering about this today! I am making hats and always get this one stich that is crooked and open and I cover it with a tag, but I would love a full video on this technique for circular needles using bulky yarn.
yep, lace is on my list. As for nova platina interchangeable. they are my personal favorite. very fast to knit and rather cheap. they won't last a lifetime, tho.
Hiya Norman! Thanks for the in-depth tutorial, your dedication and attention to detail is in a class of its own 😊 I'm wondering, does anyone know if you can knit bigger items such as sweaters on 8" DPNs or are they just for smaller projects like socks?
Hello Norman! I just discovered your very helpful channel by accident. You helped me understand some of my mistakes already. 5hanks a lot for that. I love knitting socks for my best friend and as I knit toe up I have a different problem of joining the round. When I cast off my socks the last stitch of the ribbing always stand out like it was the first stitch of the new round. I tried many ways to hide this stitch and join the round by sewing but I just can't get it nice and neat. So I would love a video of how to bind off in the round and how to join the last stitch with the round. Or maybe you did the video already and I just haven't found it so far?
This is brilliant. I have to redistribute the first stitch back to the first needle though. I'm too ocd to end up with 7 8 8 9 or in my case 18 19 19 20 for your glove pattern 😂
Do you have any helpful techniques for eliminating the jog when doing fair isle or stranded color work in the round? I find lots of tutorials on how to do this when knitting stripes but not more intricate patterns.
Hello Norman, I am wondering if you have a video of joining in the round from straight knitting to circular knitting though a requirement when a pattern requires it, please.

@@NimbleNeedles i just am so thankful for you and your video’s, out of all I saw, no one showed me how to join. Thank you thank you
I started my first DPN project (sock) using your techniques and a German twisted cast that I learned from Sheep & Stitch ❤
I love the idea of starting on a straight needle for a few rows! I think this is the secret to finally make my first sock ❤
I sure hope it does!

One thing on the first method that was not mentioned that took me a minute to figure out on my own, the way the video shows does NOT keep the stitches per needle even after joining. The extra stitch you cast on NEEDS to be accounted for on the first needle you start slipping stitches with to divide them.
For example, the pattern I'm working calls for 6 stitches on the first needle, 8 on the second, and leaving 6 on the third. The first time I followed this video, I did 6, then 8, which left my 7 on the original cast on needle. Once I did the invisible join, I had 5, 8, and 7, because the join MOVES a stitch from the original to the first dividing needle. Had to start over. So make sure your extra stitch is counted on that first needle you start dividing the stitches with.
sorry about that. I thought that it was kind of obvious that if you move one stitch there is one stitch less. But yeah, you absolutely have to calculate that in :)
