Rachel shows how you can wrap your yarn multiple times while knitting a stitch, and then release those wraps in the next row to use for special effects.
This is very helpful, I was googling this but the directions in many sites were very vague. They didn't specify to di the wrapping in the middle of doing the stitch and not after or before. This cleared that up
Such a helpful video. Just wondering it a pattern says k4 wrap 4 times, is that for each stitch? There is nothing in the pattern glossary and I've had no response on ravelry to my question
Hi there! So, if the pattern says, "k4, wrap 4 times," then you'll need to knit 4 stitches, then after that 4th stitch, wrap the yarn around the needle 4 times. Eventually in either the next row/round, it should say to drop these wraps and pick them up like they're 1 stitch. What those wraps do is make a super long stitch that will be worked probably about 4 rows/rounds from where we're doing the wraps. However, being able to read the entire row/round instruction will help to give context. Feel free to email our Bean Aimee at aimee@jimmybeanswool.com and she'll be more than happy to assist you! :)
Oh my God, I can’t believe for some reason on the double wrapping stitch I was able to follow and then I was also able to drop the stitch on the next round but for some reason now I think I might’ve dropped a stitch and did not knit it. Is there a video that shows how to save it?
Hi Sally! For knitters who use English style knitting, knit and purl stitches wrap the yarn around the needle differently. This video might help you: ruclips.net/video/akcS6ViMdps/видео.html

Thank you this was very helpful. You seem like you have a sweet personality and I’m glad you make such helpful videos that are very easy to understand
Thank you so much. This was very helpful. I have a pattern that is knit 1 w2 and I could not find anywhere how to do this. :-)
Thank you for the video. I’m hoping this is what I was supposed to do. 4:23

I wish the camera focused more on the stitches. It is difficult to see.
+Barbara Healy I am wrong. After viewing again, I can see the stitches very clearly.
+Barbara Healy glad you were able to see the stitch more clearly on the 2nd viewing! -Leanne
