Thank you for your simple video it was very helpful to learn new stitches. Im going to knit a long coat and those were the stitches in yarn in front and back. THANKYOU!!🥀🧶💚
THANKS FOR YOUR SIMPLE VIDEO ALTHOUGH YOU KNITTED FAST AT FIRST, WHILE SHOWING. ITS NOW HELPED ME TO TRY THIS. I HAVE A PATTERN FOR A JUMPER AND IVE BEEN AVOIDING TO KNITTING IT. NOW ILL GIVE IT A TRY THANKYOU!!
Thank you, Hannah. I learned to knit English style, like you, from my grandmother in England and find knitting videos very helpful but because most do not knit English style it takes a bit of trial and error to get to the correct stitch. I will be using your site all the time from now on now I have found you knitting English style. Jill
Hi, yes I wish I could show that to you. Unfortunately at that time I was still filming with an iPodTouch, which didn’t have great resolution, so close-up wouldn’t have been very clear. I hope you can see it large enough on a desktop or tablet, so the fabric is larger on screen. Happy knitting and thanks for watching! 🧶
Thank you Hannah! I am getting back into knitting after a stroke-like episode and couldn't understand the pattern. I was worried s1 purlwise wyif meant I was adding stitches! Thanks for the clear demonstration and sample swatches. Now I know where my pattern should be heading :)
Hi Sarah, it's like you see diagonal lines on a chess board. It's the brain's interpretation of the slip stitches moving one stitch along with each row, similar to moss stitch. Happy knitting! 🧶
@@KnitWithHannah did you say you staggered the slip stitches? I don't think I quite caught what you said in the video properly to work out how you made the effect.
Hello Hanna your stitches are easy to understand - I'm making a head band and using your last bleu swatch - P1S1 - the loops on 1 side are the same but purling the reverse side does not give nice result as on your bleu example Why so my back looks like garter stitch???? I hope someone answers I'm knitting this for my granddaughter and was going to ask her which side she prefers Thank you Geraldine
Hi Geraldine, you're essentially purling each side which will give the same result as knitting each side - it's the nature of ho w the yarn moves when you're making each stitch. It's an ideal pattern to make a reversible headband. It'll be one pattern one side and different on the other. Happy knitting!
Hi Hanna that's what I wanted to do - pattern is a pretty on both sidesI Thank you I will give my granddaughter the choice Thank you for answering and have a great summer!
Hi! It’s linked in the description and I’ll drop it here for you too: To download the free pdf that links to all the jargon demos here on RUclips and on the Knit WIth Hannah blog, click here: KnitWithHannah.co.uk/demos
Possibly, for a looser drape you would just change the needle size - thicker needles=looser drape. So theoretically it wouldn't matter which yarn weight you chose, the needle size would make it feel right as you knit it. Happy knitting 🧶🎄
Hi Hannah, I am knitting a scarf with the following row: K1, P1, K2, P1, WYIF, SL 3 STS PURLWISE, P1, [K2, P1] TWICE, WYIF, SL 3 STS PURLWISE, P1, K2, P1 K1 -My question is, do I let the bar lay flat across the 3 slipped stitches rather than pulling it tight when I purl the stitch after the 3 SL stitches? Thank!
Yes, let it lie along the stitches without pulling right, otherwise the stitches either side will be tighter and the width of your knitting will change on the rows that you’re slipping. Happy knitting 🧶
Hannah, this was so very helpful BUT did not answer the problem I am having.. I am working on a Prismatic Scarf and am totally confused. Each row has 30 stitches and begins with a K 3 and ends with Sl 3, to make an iCord edging. My question is if the last 6 stitches are Slip 3 and then ends the row with Slip 3. How do I do this??? HELP PLEASE!
Not sure exactly what it’s suggesting, as pw is purlwise, saying the needle goes into the stitch as if purling, but might be saying to have yarn in front too. You can slip multiple stitches in a row, not just one. So it could be simply slip 2 stitches in a row. Happy knitting 🧶
Consider it as slip one, slip one, without moving the yarn between slipping. The last stitch from the previous row will anchor the yarn in place. This video shows that it's not unusual to do more than one slip stitch one after the other in patterns: ruclips.net/video/e_AYLt42qu0/видео.html Happy knitting 🧶 P.S. I like your avatar very much!
Hi I have an old project and I need help figuring out stitches names Could you help me with that Could I send you a close up picture and maybe you’d recognize it!
That might be difficult as the stitch patterns may be different depending on when and where the pattern was written. It’s the individual stitches that bring the patterns together that will be the clue. I don’t offer individual one-to-one support like this, so suggest you find a local knitting shop or online knitting coach who could help. Tonia from the RUclips channel @Nerdy Knitting is the only one I am aware of right now. Happy knitting 🧶
Hi there! I am beginning a scarf project and it starts with a moss border… I am a very new, basic knitter. The border rows each end with “SL 3 WYIF” so how would that go? I understand the slipping in your video, but I’m unsure about how to work it with 3 stitches
Keep the yarn in front and slip three stitches, one stitch at a time. Don't need to move the yarn in-between. I'd take a close look at any illustrations there are with the pattern it'll give you a better idea of what you're supposed to be replicating. happy knitting! 🧶
Hannah, I’m attempting short rows and I came across your video on the wrap and turn which was fabulous, thankyou for that. So do I always slip the stitch with yarn in front before wrapping it whether I’m on a knit row or purl row?
Hi Celine! If you'd like to see it slower, then change the settings to 0.5 or 0.75, and do watch all the way through as I repeat the stitch a few times over. Happy Knitting!
Hi Flying Cloud, If you'd like to see it slower, then change the settings to 0.5 or 0.75, and do watch all the way through as I repeat the stitch a few times over.. There's also individual knit and purl tutorials if that's what you'd like to see closer up, in the beginners playlist here: ruclips.net/p/PLnqw36aiAI0jrYkn9Nmr2_wctJ8_TDnge Happy knitting 🧶
Wonderful explanation - not just the how but the why - thank you so much!
Hi Libbyann, Glad it was helpful! happy knitting 😍

THANKYOU!!🥀🧶💚
Enjoy! Happy knitting! 🧶
Thanks, Hannah. Saved my night! Love your teaching.
You're so welcome! Happy knitting 🧶
I realize this is probably simple for many people but new stitches are very tricky for me (usually). You've helped me immensely! Thank you, Hannah!! 🌞
You are so welcome! There's so much to learn in knitting, I feel like I'm only just starting to understand new techniques sometimes too. 🧶
👍 thanks.... Btw i like ur working side yarn holding technique. So fast and gracefully done.
You’re welcome! You can see the technique I use in more detail here: ruclips.net/video/bOyzsHp3Quc/видео.html happy knitting! 🧶

great! so glad you found me. Yes there are so many methods, it's a good idea to watch someone who uses the same one as you. Happy knitting! 🧶
It was easy to listen to the way it knitted thanks
Great, I’m so glad this helped. Happy knitting 🧶
My only criticism is that I would have liked a close up of the stitches. Thank you so much for the videos!!

That's a lovely effect. Didn't really understand how you got the diagonal lines though. Would you mind explaining it please?

Where is the PDF please? Great explanation for this technique, thank you!

Given this WYIF method creates a thicker outcome, would it be best to use a DK rather than a super chunky yarn for a scarf?
Possibly, for a looser drape you would just change the needle size - thicker needles=looser drape. So theoretically it wouldn't matter which yarn weight you chose, the needle size would make it feel right as you knit it. Happy knitting 🧶🎄

I'd do a knit stitch on the third stitch. Just to hold it together. slip 2, k1, slip 3. happy knitting 🧶
Hi Hanna! How do you do S2PW (yarn held in back and in front)? Is it done the same as this? Thanks for your help.
Not sure exactly what it’s suggesting, as pw is purlwise, saying the needle goes into the stitch as if purling, but might be saying to have yarn in front too. You can slip multiple stitches in a row, not just one. So it could be simply slip 2 stitches in a row.

@@KnitWithHannah Thank You Hannah!
Thanks Hannah! Very helpful video and explanation. I was stuck on my pattern, you made it easy!
Yay! so glad it was helpful for you. :D happy knitting, Kathy. :D
I am wondering about s1wyif and then a purl stitch. Not sure about where the yarn should be after the f when you have to then purl.
If you watch to about 3mins 40, that’s where I do exactly that.
What about sl 2 wyif at the very start of a ws row?
Consider it as slip one, slip one, without moving the yarn between slipping. The last stitch from the previous row will anchor the yarn in place.
