Thank you for teaching me this technique. I was just finishing a baby vest for charity last night and thinking to myself 'there must be a better way to get a nicer finish than sewing these hems. Some clever person must know how' . 😊 I'm very happy with how my work looks with the three needle cast off. Your an amazing teacher.
Wonderful! Good to hear that the technique went well for you, thanks so much for letting me know. It is definitely an ego booster to be considered clever! 😉
This video was very helpful to me. It especially helped me understand how to recognize the correct placement for picking up stitches. Thank you very much.
Welcome back Suzanne! QUESTION; If you’ve already bound off the edges, what is the advantage of picking up stitches and doing the 3NBO rather than just a sewn seam? Is it just the decorative value?
Great questions, Emily. There are times when you may want to join to fabrics that have a finished edge. For example, have you seen those throws that are worked with multiple squares of cable designs? Like a sampler? You would need to join those squares. This is just one method that you could employ. It is always good to have options. I am using this technique in the Cable Pillow Tutorial that I have on Ravelry - www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cable-pillow-tutorial
Suzanne also answers questions when she live streams on her Suzanne Off the Cuff RUclips channel. Hope this helps. :) ruclips.net/channel/UCQBgFUvQzjz1RUm9NsgEA1Afeatured
I am not clear on what you are asking Elaine, can you restate your question? Be sure to subscribe to my channel if you haven't already, happy knitting.
Shoulder bind off for shoulder.When pattern states bind off 3 rows give a slope for the shoulder that has to be sewn together from front to back . If I wanted to do a 3 needle bind off to eliminate the shoulder stitching, how could I get the slope without binding off so the stitches left on needle can be bind off on 3 needles ?
Your camera work and stitch definition are so clear. Thanks.
Thank you!

Suzanne, I had no idea how little I knew about the three-needle BO. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.
You are very welcome Jo McGinty! Happy knitting.
Oh this is exactly what I needed! Thank you so much, that extra row in the bindoff colour makes all the difference to the finish.
You're so welcome!

I've seen several videos illustrating working the three needle bindoff with a crochet hook. What is your opinion on this variation?
That's a great idea! It works great. Either way, the results will look the same. So if that works for you, go for it.
I have 52 stitches I need to put evenly on a back needle. I’m having trouble doing this evenly. Any advice?
Mam very pretty normally i bind off this method on wrong side for joining the shoulders can v do this joing on the right side pl share
You can use it on either side. I demonstrated the right side as most people already know how to work it on the wrong side. Happy knitting.
Shoulder sts. usually have a gradual bind off at shoulder, could I eliminate the bind offs and use 3 needle bind off with back bind off to attach ?

Ah, now I understand - try this video - ruclips.net/video/tYzRL2ETCME/видео.html
Could this be done in a K1, P1 bind off?
Try it and see what it looks like.
