Hi everyone! Thanks for all your comments, we are really pleased that we are able to give you a good tip to improve your knitting! We really mean it when we say that "knitting is cheating" so we will definitely think of some more things that you can do to "fix" mistakes in such a way that you don't need to rip up your knitting every time. I see a lot of people are mentioning Valentines day in the comments below and who thought that maybe we would do something Valentines-related on our channel this week, but actually, even though you can find some Valentines cards and other Valentine-related stuff in shops here in our country, we don't really celebrate Valentines day here in Norway so we didn't think about it... Well, there is always next year! Keep in mind that our next video will be a LIVE stream and will take place on Saturday February 16th at 6:00pm CET / 11:00am CST - and there will be no video published on Sunday February 17th. Have a great week ahead and we look forward to interact with you live, soon! Arne
???!!!!! That is not a small tip.... that's a LIFE CHANGER!!! In all my years of knitting , I've never heard of that! Honestly you are both such talented guys who underestimate how valuable your "small tips" are. Another HUGE thumbs up!!! Thank you!!
"Knitting is all about cheating", says Carlos. One of the billions of things that make me love watching your videos. "Carlosisms". And, of course, the casual way Arne handles problems that put us into panic mode. Thank you once again, guys. Besos y abrazos.
Wow fantastic idea. Ive been knitting since I was 8 (I’m now 63) and that’s a new trick to me. Thanks so much Arne and Carlos. Just love your podcasts. 🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶💙💙
I honestly think there are people who get on youtube and watch for new videos just to press the thumbs down button without even watching the videos, I swear. All the thumbs downs on your channel should be ignored and disregarded as nothing! Seriously, what is in this video (or ANY of your videos) to dislike?!?! Baffles and confuses me to no end! There is nothing but smiles, wonderful knitting and crochet tutorials, laughing (Arne-I LOVE your laugh!!), great information about other crafts, hints and tricks about gardening, providing for wildlife (bird houses, feeders and even insects!!), you both have great hair, Carlos has a warm smile, Arne is a huggable cutie. And the best part? We get to see Carlos go jump in the lake once in a while!! 😂🤣 Really, I love you both, thank you for this channel a million times infinity squared!! Also, seeing the fast forward of Arne knitting was cool, and to whoever did the video editing so you both were still talking normally (as opposed to the chipmunk chatter that usually accompanies fast forward action) great job!! Always looking forward to next Sunday with you guys!! Love, hugs, prayers and positive energy to both of you and your crew! 🤗💖
I second all of that. If you were my neighbor you would have to shooo me home, I would be at your house all of the time. You guys are so delightful and you seem so simpatico with each other, which brings me great joy since I have pretty much given up on relationships. I envy your camaraderie. Blessings!
in all my decades of knitting you showing me this was like a light bulb moment, may have even heard angels sing out lol. Great trick, thank you! had never ever even occurred to me. I feel slightly embarrassed to be honest.
ARNE, YOU ARE MY HERO! This is a life changer. Amazing solution...so simple. I had to watch it a few times to believe it! I laughed when I think of the countless hours of my 70 years that have been spent ripping out and casting on again because of a twist. The irony that the solution is to twist.
Hello Lovely Guys always a real pleasure to see you each Sunday evening. You are always a joy to watch and, yet again, I have learned something new tonight. I have struggled with twisted yarn for years but you have solved this problem for me. I just love watching you chat together with us all, just like old friends dropping in for a cup of tea and a slice of cake. Have a fabulous week ahead, you are my most favourite people. Hug and loves always xxxxxx Dorothy 😘🙋🏻❤️🌟
Love you guys! I had this exact problem last week when I cast on and tried to rib knit 232 stitches. Yes, I ripped the whole thing out and started over. :-(
Brilliant! Thank you so so much for this simple fix for the horror of finding you have twisted stitches. I've only done it once, but now I will no longer be in fear of doing it again!
This made me think of my mother she taught me that tip and other knitting tip. Miss her....Thanks A&C hope you feel much better now. Love Sundays with you and a cup of coffee👍👍❤️❤️😘😘
Love your tips and tricks! Was watching you and how well you play off each other, and was thinking that I watch your videos as much for the great chemistry you have with each other as I do for anything else.
Oh Arne!! This weekend I cast on 300 sts in Navy 4ply on 2.75mm needles. I was certain I had no twisted sts, until I put the work down and picked it up again, I think I must have twisted my needles round because 16 rows later I noticed I had a möbius!! I re-started the whole lot again. But a great tip to remember in the future. Thankyou for this vid. 😁👍
Sandy Grogg I know!! Thing is, until I see Arne explain how to untwist, made me realise that was probably HOW I put a twist in my work. It’s all learning though and I should have checked several times. It’s all going well now.
Hazel Donner Another thing you can do to avoid twisting, especially after casting on a large number of stitches, is to postpone "joining in the round" until you have knitted 2 or 3 rows as in straight knitting. You simply use the circular needle like a straight needle. That way, your row of stitches is less likely to twist. Then you can join in the round after knitting 3 rows straight, without any problem. You close the gap of the first two rows by sewing it together with your yarn tail using the mattress stitch.
I'm a crocheter and self taught knitter and these videos are so great. Yes, I have been frogging the twisted cast ons. Won't have to do that again! Thanks, you are great. 👍
Thank you Arne and Carlos! Could you please do a tutorial on how to calculate decreases for the crown of the hat you are making. Arne you make constructing a knitted cap look so easy, but how do you know how many decreases to start with on 64 stitches? Thanks again. Love how you calmly talk and cast-on so easily!
Happy Sunday Funday! Thanks for another great knitting tip. Last November I took a class from Ann Budd with her skirt pattern. (shout out to Ann and Cowgirl Yarn in Laramie WY) I cast on near the end of the class. It has a twist in it and its living on the needles, but now I can fix it with ease and carry on! 😍 (Keep calm, and knit on!) Thank you for saving me from the massive re-cast on! Whoop whoop! 🎉 Thank you so much for the weekly tutorials, crafting tips, and passing on some great pointers with us. Much appreciated! 💯❣️ Tusen Takk! Hello and love to Freja 🐶❤️
Thanks for posting such a helpful video. What I like best about your videos is that they are pretty easy to understand. I usually need to go over something several Tim’s before I get it, but yours are usually pretty easy to comprehend.
I have always been careful not to twist when knitting in the round. I am thankful you have such a simple solution if the need arose! Love your podcast!
I love, love, love you guys! You are so positive and supportive! Let’s face it; we all make mistakes. Thank you for showing us that it is not the end of the world, at least in our knitting, which is supposed to be our “Happy Place”. ❤️
I learned this magic trick from you guys and it has saved me a few times. No longer worried about twisted cast on but I always try to keep it straight.
Yes that's a great tip. I have used it before when this happened to me. Glad to see you folks are felling better. Have a sparkly week. See you next Sunday.
Good evening to you both. Thank you for the great tip its good to know you don't have to rip your knitting down. Look forward to to hearing more tips. I hope the two of you have got over the flu you look great in the video. Have a great week stay warm and take care till next Sunday xx
You guys Rock!!!! I love your sense of humor Arne!!! I love when you make up scenarios! Oh It's so twisted! I laughed so hard! You are funny! It is exactly what I said the first time I did it. I did it a second time and .... well. I'm a beginner so sometimes you get surprised by things that happen...Like what????? I have used the magic :) Your comment about the cast on row being so boring. I really resonate with that comment. Thanks guys for another great video!
Oh my goodness! I haven't twisted any of my stitches until yesterday. If only this video was out a day earlier I wouldn't have pulled it out and started again. Thank you! Now if it happens again I will know what to do!
Another great tip ! I have done this a few times when I realized I was twisted, made me laugh when Carlos said cheating is ok (because I do..lol ) Glad to know I'm not alone....have a wonderful week !
This is the best tip! Thank you so much! I’m definitely one who has started completely over again if I had a twist 😟 I’m so excited to not be so stressed about this now that I know this. Yay! Thank you so much!
thanks for the knitting trick I loved it I look forward to you every week glad you got your 50.000 subscritation see you next week forgive the spelling
Guys I love your videos and thank you for this tip, In the past I would pulled it apart when I would get it twisted but no more I'm going to try your tip. Guys Is almost Valentine's day😜 I keep on thinking " Arne and Carlos will have somthing spectacular for it " and guys I haven't seen nothing yet, I'm getting worried I was hopping to get an Idea from you guys 😘 I love you guys😘🌻🌸🌺🥀🌹🍁🌷⚘🌾🌼 have a wonderful Valentine's day ...
What the heck! I am a stupid self taught knitter - and of course I am one of the ones who would rip it all out! Thank you - Thank you - great little lesson! Blessings to both of you today!
Thank you so much!! I have always gone back...un-knit it...and started it again...this is the best tip ever!! You guys are great...thanks for taking the time to show how to fix this!!
That's a great tip, thank you so much. If I was sitting at your table, I could not resist sorting your circular needles! Maybe time to knit a needle case or two.
Hi both ! Thank you for all the great informative podcasts. Im quite new to finding you both . Your tip for untwisting the round made me smile as it’s exactly what I’ve been doing - but assumed I should of really started again ! 🙏😊
It would be fun to hear all your favorite ways of cheating! Maybe using duplicate stitch to fix a colorwork mistake,.... or when you run out of yarn doing a long tail cast on and you can’t spit splice some more yarn on, picking up a couple of stitches evenly when you knit the first row....or maybe I cheat too much!🇺🇸❤️🇳🇴
I have given this trick to many a student over my 43 years of teaching. I have a friend who does production knitting doing lots of infinity scarves and cowls. Her trick for no twisting after casting on a large number of stitches is....as you cast on place a marker at the half way point. With all the stitches cast on, fold your needle cable at the marker.so the two halves are parallel then working back toward the points straighten the sts so the edge knots are all facing down. Turn the needles so they are facing each other and sat knitting. Do check the set of the sts. when you finish the first round.
Yes, thank you. That issue of twisted cast on stitches made me very wary of circular needles for years. Now I will try it again with more confidence and not be so disheartened if it happens again. In. fact, I welcome the challenge.
Thanks for this tip! It is such an easy fix but not what a lot of people would think of or try, they just rip it out haha!! Have a good week guys!! :) Sharon from California
Wish i could send you some pictures of my work i just finish crocheting a doll and now doing a crochet granny square to match the doll. Now when you start a hat or a project do you keep at it till it is done or start up another project lol like me i have a few not many now started
Hi Arne & Carlos. I see your tin can. I bought some at Christmas time. When I went to the city by jet 1 hour 30 minutes away I found small ones I wanted. I clean mine out let dry, cut felt material. It comes in many colors about size of sheet of paper & larger. I scratch inside of tin can & put Elmers Glue inside and cut the Felt fabric to size. I like them like that so my scissors and such don't make such a racket.
So glad to see the fun with your circular needle collection. What a great idea,I have a pretty one I kept for years from a gift given to My mother-in-law just sitting around. Now I can repurpose it with my circulars. Thank you!!
Great trick. You are saving lives here hahahaha But what i enjoy the most is the tender loving relationship that you have. Loving your love! Un abrazo/en sterk klem
Early in my knitting I knit a whole sweater with twisted stitches. I found out later why it had a different texture. My mother in law does love it. It was a simple stocking net stitch one color sweater. Knit and learn 💖
Greetings from Turkey. Thanks to you İ changed the way i knit and now I knit faster and don't have pain in my arms and hands. İ also enjoy your chats. You're the best ❤️

Arne, I have been knitting 45 years and have never seen this "fix." Thank you so very much. This old dog has learned a new trick, thanks to you!!!
Awwwwwww.......how many times, I started over....thanks!
Love you guys! I had this exact problem last week when I cast on and tried to rib knit 232

Brilliant! Thank you so so much for this simple fix for the horror of finding you have twisted stitches. I've only done it once, but now I will no longer be in fear of doing it again!
Starting over with numerous stitches on the needle puts a damper on the excitement of starting a new project. Thank you so much!
This made me think of my mother she taught me that tip and other knitting tip. Miss her....Thanks A&C hope you feel much better now.

Good to see you both feeling good.
Thank you so much!! I have always gone back...un-knit it...and started it again...this is the best tip ever!! You guys are great...thanks for taking the time to show how to fix this!!
Thank you for this tip, just encountered this issue and now I can fix it without starting
over! Look forward to every tutorial. Love you guys!!
That's a great tip, thank you so much. If I was sitting at your table, I could not resist sorting your circular needles! Maybe time to knit a needle case or two.
Another enjoyable video. Makes me want to learn to knit.
Oh how smart is that! I’ve really only had a twist once I think. But I pulled it all off the needles. Now I know. Thanks again. ♥️
Hmm i see what you are doing there very good thank you
I REALLY needed to see this, very helpful. Thanks guys!
Hi both ! Thank you for all the great informative podcasts. Im quite new to finding you both . Your tip for untwisting the round made me smile as it’s exactly what I’ve been doing - but assumed I should of really started again ! 🙏😊
Good tip. Thanks for showing us how you do it.
What an excellent tutorial. If I make that mistake, I have always started over....not ever again. THANK YOU
What a great tip! Love your tin of circular needles.
Do you have a special or favourite guage for sizing your needles or lots of different ones?
Thanks for the tip!!!
It would be fun to hear all your favorite ways of cheating! Maybe using duplicate stitch to fix a colorwork mistake,.... or when you run out of yarn doing a long tail cast on and you can’t spit splice some more yarn on, picking up a couple of stitches evenly when you knit the first row....or maybe I cheat too much!🇺🇸❤️🇳🇴
Oh, now you tell me! Man, this could have been so useful (and I'm sure will be useful again).
I have given this trick to many a student over my 43 years of teaching. I have a friend who does production knitting doing lots of infinity scarves and cowls. Her trick for no twisting after casting on a large number of stitches is....as you cast on place a marker at the half way point. With all the stitches cast on, fold your needle cable at the marker.so the two halves are parallel then working back toward the points straighten the sts so the edge knots are all facing down. Turn the needles so they are facing each other and sat knitting. Do check the set of the sts. when you finish the first round.
Great fix. Thank you. Is there any particular reason you're working from the outside of the skein in, rather than the inside out?
This is AWESOME!! Thank you so much. This is so simple yet never occurred to me before. 💚
What a simple thing that changes our life. Thank you
You are welcome!
Yes, thank you. That issue of twisted cast on stitches made me very wary of circular needles for years. Now I will try it again with more confidence and not be so disheartened if it happens again. In. fact, I welcome the challenge.
Thanks for this tip! It is such an easy fix but not what a lot of people would think of or try, they just rip it out haha!! Have a good week guys!! :)

Wish i could send you some pictures of my work i just finish crocheting a doll and now doing a crochet granny square to match the doll. Now when you start a hat or a project do you keep at it till it is done or start up another project lol like me i have a few not many now started
Hi Arne & Carlos. I see your tin can. I bought some at Christmas time. When I went to the city by jet 1 hour 30 minutes away I found small ones I wanted. I clean mine out let dry, cut felt material. It comes in many colors about size of sheet of paper & larger. I scratch inside of tin can & put Elmers Glue inside and cut the Felt fabric to size. I like them like that so my scissors and such don't make such a racket.
Love the vintage tin!
Thanks Arne and Carlos, that's a life changer
Thank you so much for showing this! I've never had anyone show me this before and what a time saver! Wow thanks again!
So glad to see the fun with your circular needle collection. What a great idea,I have a pretty one I kept for years from a gift given to
My mother-in-law just sitting around. Now I can repurpose it with my circulars. Thank you!!
That is a tip that I will remember. Thanks.
Arne! You are magic!!! I appreciate you guys so much. The tip for closing the "hole" in the sock gusset is also brilliant. Much love from Kentucky!!!
Great trick. You are saving lives here hahahaha
But what i enjoy the most is the tender loving relationship that you have. Loving your love! Un abrazo/en sterk klem

One is never too old to learn something! I've never seen this hack in any books so THANK YOU guys!

Thank you Guys , because I am one of those that would have unraveled it All! : )
