I've been having a bad day all around, as well as having to fix my knitting screw-up (TWO dropped stitches the edge of my work for 5 rows). Your tone of voice was so cheerful and your tutorial so clear and helpful (the crochet-hook method did NOT make sense to me in my state of mind) that I not only fixed my knitting but also am having a better day for having played your video 10 times and heard your calming voice in the background as I sorted out this mess. Thank you!
Thank you so much! Sometimes this happens to my fabric and till now I repaired it a lot more complicated although I knit for over 54 years. You showed me the easy way. I learned for my life here: again. Be blessed!
My dear knitting guru. I hope that you have been doing more than well. I was wondering if you could please touch base on some topics like ..1.What are the best buttons to use for knitting..and how best to fix them on for example..TOGGLE BUTTONS and best way to create button holes .. 2. How best to go about making a more FITTED ITEM as many knitting projects are not fitted... Thank you too much my dear angel🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much for the suggestions! Adding buttons to a project is not complicated but there are a number of things we should keep in mind. From my experience, the buttonholes are the same for toggles and the regular round buttons. Just make sure the buttonhole is big enough for a toggle because those buttons are usually bigger. I've made a tutorial about a simple way to make a buttonhole that doesn't stretch too much. This tutorial is at www.10rowsaday.com/one-row-buttonhole. I will definitely make a tutorial to show how to attach buttons to a knitted garment. Thank you once again for the suggestion :-)
Hi Janet, If you mean my comment about a garter stitch fabric made of knits in one row and purls in the next row, then @wellsent1 below did a great job clarifying this point - we do need to alternate knits and purls to keep the ridges. If you mean the second part of this tutorial where we fix dropped stitches of a swatch made my purling all stitches (instead of knitting all stitches), then yes, it does make a difference - we fix stitches in a slightly different way even though the texture of the fabric looks exactly the same as the texture of the swatch made by knitting all stitches. Happy knitting :-)

Thank you so much. So useful. I've always pulled out my rows to fix the edges. Didn't know how to do this before.
You are most welcome, Karynne. No more pulling out the rows :-)
thank you so much, that was extremely helpful.
Thank you, Barbara :-) Happy knitting!
Brilliant!
Thank you :-)
thank you soo much for this! 😊
Thanks again🌷
You're welcome 😊
Wow. Great tip
Thank you, Linda :-)
Great.. but garter stitch is every row knit. There is no purl row. Does this make any difference? But it is a very helpful tip regardless ...
Yes, it is all knit, but if you have the work facing you, you must pick up a dropped stitch as knit and purl alternately to keep the ridges.
