Thank you for this tutorial! It was incredibly useful to me in making my first scarf after years of not knitting. Here are the timestamps for each of the five ways so other viewers can easily navigate the tutorial: 0:18 #1: Looks like a chain of stitches 1:37 #2: Looks like a chain of little beads 4:03 #3: Two garter stitches at each side 5:52 #4: Seed stitch at each side 7:52 #5: i-cord that is created as you knit
Thank you. The most helpful parts of this video were when you said explicitly to add and how many to add stitches to the cast on. Also every time you said "right side, wrong side, it doesn't matter." These statements seem simple, but they are extremely clarifying and make this video a tutorial that can actually be used!
This video is so simple and clear. Really well-made and extremely helpful. Also, I love this woman. She talks at the perfect pace, has a very pleasant voice, and I love her accent.
Thank you so much! I'm in my 60s and I just started learning to knit 2 weeks ago from these You Tube videos. My edges were so loopy and ugly, it was frustrating since I have no one to really ask what was wrong.I just came upon this video last evening. I tried the first couple of ways but without success until the third one. Its great that you show multiple examples. My last swatch is beautiful! Thanks again.
I have been knitting for at least 50 years and have never had edge instructions so clearly presented. Thank you for taking the time and being so detailed in your presentation. I'm looking forward to neater edges in the future.
Maryna, I have watched an insane number of knitting videos over the past 2 days. Yours and your techniques are top notch! Like many other less experienced knitters, I have been dissatisfied with my edges. Now that you have given excellent tutorials on how to finish the sides of a knitting project, I can feel more accomplished as a knitter! Thank you for all your tutorials!
BEST instructions for any level of knitters. I’m glad to start learning how to knit the right way with options too. Thank you very much for for your video.
I just found your channel and website today and I am so excited! There are no classes or knitting guilds in my area and other tutorials just didn't make sense to me. You are a very easy person to listen to, and your directions are easy to understand. My grandmother taught me to knit when I was 6. I would try now and again, but could never manage anything more challenging than a scarf. With your videos my ability has increased by leaps and bounds. Thank you so much!
Kate, I'm so happy to know that my tutorials make sense to you :-) If you need help with something that is not yet explained in a video tutorial, send me an email and I'll do my best to help. Happy knitting!
I have watched your teaching videos now for a few years off and on as well as other sites and I love yours the best! Your voice and explanations are so clear and easy for me that I have learned so many great techniques which has greatly improved my knitting. Thank you so much for being such a great teacher!!!!
This was a great overview of different side-edge techniques to give your knits a nicely finished look. I’m most likely to use the 1st method for my current project because it’s neither a straight stockinette nor garter stitch pattern and the first method will probably work best. I also appreciate the suggestion of doing a little swatch in the pattern to see how the various methods will look. Thanks 😊
Interesting! I always do an I-cord with slip all/knit all at the beginning/end of a row, never with alternating slip/knit stitches. Going to make a swatch today to see the difference between the 2 methods. Thank you for your video, very well explained! :-)
It is just another way of forming an i-cord-looking edge. This method doesn't leave long yarn floats at the edges. The method you use is also great and the floats normally disappear after blocking. Happy knitting :-)
@@10rowsaday Thank you for explaining this. I was just going to ask why you slipped two stitches in the I-cord selvage. That now makes logical sense as a way to eliminate the long float. Very helpful. Thank you for a very clear instructional video. Well done!
Excellent teaching! Thank you for making it clear (going step by step) as to what-to-do & how-to-do these added stitches "for every row" to get a nice, clean border without the curling. On to making some scarfs as gifts (Thumbs up!)
@@10rowsaday It was so nice to finally see someone who knits like I do. You hardly ever see anyone do it this way but it seems like it is so much easier and faster than the way everyone else does when they have to pick up the yarn and move it over with their hand!
I’m Amazed! I’ve been doing 1 and four; but these other three I will definitely utilize! Fabulous tutorial and I Thank You very much. Clear, concise, and inspiring!❤️🌹❣️
10rowsaday You are more than welcome! Now, I will watch all the other videos! I’m just getting back into knitting the last 6 months and these videos are the best I’ve seen to really help me get precisely the tools needed to perfect my work. Thank You very much🌹🤗
Great clear instructions! I am a beginner knitter... I am 3/4 of the way through a shawl, wished I would have seen this video first to make a nicer edge!
I am, like Terry Ann Sweeney, 75% done an infinity scarf, and wish I had seen this before starting my project. And this is only my 2nd knitting project. Thank you for the clear instructions!
So glad I found your knitting tutorials! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! 🤗 I'm a beginner knitter and the way you explain, it's easy to follow and attempt. P.s love your sweater, it's exactly the look I want to knit for a knitted tunic. Would you consider a tutorial for a knitted tunic top? 🙂🤩
Thank you, Helen :-) The sweater I'm wearing in this video is called Sideways Sweater. The pattern is at www.10rowsaday.com/sideways-sweater Happy knitting!
@@10rowsaday it's exactly what I've been searching the web for but couldn't find a pattern that was close until now! I'm so excited to purchase and knit this sweater next month 😍 I want to make it a bit longer to cover my behind. Do I increase the length of the body, is this okay to do? I know I'll get more confident as I do more knitting, I'm dreaming knitting, haha 😄 Helen in Canada 🇨🇦
That amusing thank you for teaching us it’s so helpful since I’m just beginner and I unfortunately wasting my yarn 🧶 by making ugly ages☹️ Take care 🌹🌹🌹🌹
You are most welcome, Vecky :-) I'm glad you like the methods explained in this tutorial. One of the good things about knitting is that we rarely waste yarn - we can always unravel a project and use the same yarn to make something else. Happy knitting!
Another amazing video! You have a wonderful way of explaining without talking down to us. Thank you. I do have an unrelated question- do you block your swatches before demonstrating. It just occurred to me while watching, that none of your swatches are curled.
Hi Karen. Thank you so much for watching my tutorials and for the kind words :-) Yes, I block most of my swatches because curling hides sections of the swatch and distracts from the knitting technique. Some swatches do well without blocking, especially the ones that have one garter ridge at the bottom. Happy knitting :-)
Thank you so much! I can't wait to start something so I can use one of your lovely edgings. And I personally really like the fine green yarn against the blue wall... and your beautiful hands!!
@@marcoshuster1642 I live in Tennessee. My husband and I retired here 5 years ago. We absolutely love it. The weather is kind and the people even kinder. I haven’t been knitting for a while due to tendonitis in my forearms. It is nearly healed. I look forward to starting up again.
Hi,I am from India today I have seen your video it's very useful for every knitter can I knit my cardigan,s button band by using this idea thank you so much
What an excellent, comprehensive and easy-to-follow tutorial! It is ready to help me as I embark on my first shawl, knitted flat. But one question I do have is whether any of these edges favor (or disfavor) working with them if colors are changed at the edge of the shawl. Can you expand on which of these edges might be an optimal choice for color changes and for carrying the yarn up the side if the pattern requires it?
Thank you so much for the kind words :-) I am happy you enjoyed this tutorial. As to carrying different colours up the edges, there is another tutorial that should be quite helpful, you can watch it at ruclips.net/video/iFuEgSLg2L0/видео.html Good luck with the shawl :-)
Thank you for this tutorial! It was incredibly useful to me in making my first scarf after years of not knitting.
