I've been struggling for days, ripping out row after row, and couldn't figure out how to do this without getting holes. Thank you SO much for this fantastic video. This works so well and the piece I've been stuck on is now flying through my fingers. You are a GEM to share this tutorial!
First of all, I just wanted to thank you. I have learned the majority of my knitting and fixing mistakes from watching your channel. I found myself in you described situation today where I was off by two purls. BAM! Turn to Very Pink Knits. :) Truly, thank you so much. 🥰
I had to fudge the count in this sweater I'm making and I immediately looked for a tutorial. The minute I saw Very Pink Knits I knew I was saved. Thanks bunches for your awesome explanations.
I watched so many videos on how to do this and couldn't understand but you explained it so clearly and showed the process perfectly. Thank you so much! ❤
This is hilarious -- when you explained when you usually use this, I just started laughing my head off. Because that's exactly why I'm learning the make 1 purl-wise! I love Very Pink's you tube videos and use and recommend them often. Thanks so much!
Wow! I was doing this all wrong! So glad I found your video to recheck something that didn’t seem right! I may have to watch a few more times! Thanks so much!
Thank you for this! I'm working a pattern that's called for this increase and I was going to just do it, hesitated then found your video. You confirmed what I instinctively was going to do :)
Thank you so much for the excellent tutorial. It looks similar to a M1L knitwise except for the last stitch. I have your video now saved in my favorites!!!
I just discovered I'm missing 2 stitches on a pullover sweater, which should have been a M1 at each edge right after the bottom ribbing. Oops. So now I'm working them in as I start the shoulder, plus the single M1the shoulder row 1 calls for ... a bit late, I know. What I like is this version (and I have watched others) leaves virtually no hole. So, thank you. :)
Could one pick up the bar from back to front, and then purl through the front loop, as normal? Thanks for your videos! (kind of like the companion increase to M1L?
It makes me feel so good to know that you too have to sometimes "adjust" a stitch count. Thanks posting this video. I'm not looking forward to doing this. I had lots of M1R and M1L in my Cowboys and Angels shawl, now I have to M1R (purl) and m1L (purl) ~ sigh.
I meant to say : " Could one pick up the bar from back to front, and then purl through the front loop, as normal?(kind of like the companion increase to M1L? Thanks for your videos!
You could use this purl wise increase when knitting a stockinette stitch sweater in the round, but inside out purling in Portugueseknitting style knitting.
thank you so much for this video! i'm starting the campside right now and it calls for both left and right leaning m1 purlwise increases. which way does this one lean? thanks again!
Trying to do this on a US1 -knitting socks- Question: can I just re-orient the yarn and purl thru the front then? Would that mean pu bar back to front instead? I’m confused!! Thank you! Your videos are my first choice for learning. ☺️
I have a PROBLEM please help !! I am knitting a cardigan vest open at the front with knitted lined pockets on right & left front. It's cute but I'm stuck on the pocket placement row e.g. K10 slip 27 days onto stitch holder knit across 27 sts from pocket lining. Knit to end of row. The pocket linings end with 27 sts WS on stitch holder. So do I just knit 27 sts from lining in the space left by slipping 27 onto stitch holder? I would appreciate also if you can demonstrate how to count rows when your row counter has slipped digest 😟
I can't really answer that question without knowing the pattern - please contact the pattern designer directly for pattern support. Good designers support their patterns and get back to you quickly with answers to your questions.
Question: I'm knitting a pattern that is using a reverse stockinette stitch to make a tree on the purl side. My M1 comes on the purl side of the work, but on a knit stitch that is the tree trunk. So what kind of a M1 am I using? Any help is much appreciated
Thank you for the note! The sweater on the mannequin in this video is called Ecuador. It isn't my pattern, so it's unlikely that I'll do a tutorial on it. But, if you'd like to learn more about it, I've added a link to the pattern in the video description field, just below the video. :)
I love your tutorials! I started making my own and I wonder how you get such a good angle on your hands. I can't seem to get my camera behind me without either having me in the way or it being on an angle. XD
The pattern I'm working actually calls for a m1p... I was like "m1p???" Now it makes sense. Your videos are a lifesaver!!
Thankyou! As always, simple, brief, perfect explanations with no unnecessary chatter!
Video tutorials are SO much better for knitting than books.

Your instructions are always so clear and your examples easy to see! Thank you for putting so much thought into your videos!
That made me feel SO much better when I heard you say why you use this increase! Thanks Staci:)

My response exactly!

Thank you Stacy! I also used this to get the correct stitch count-what a helpful technique!
I literally came to this video because I was one stitch shy of my count on a cable sweater set-up row. Thanks for validating my choice! 😂
That’s exactly why I was looking for how to make an increase on the purl side!
Thank you for showing this. I had a hard time figuring it out for some projects I’ve made
Thank you so much! I had been doing it wrong and ended up with holes in the fabric. This is so clear.
Thank you Staci for this video. I was having trouble with this stitch. Great tutorial as always
Excellent demo ! I feel confident I can do the M1P! Thank you!
Thank you for this! I'm working a pattern that's called for this increase and I was going to just do it, hesitated then found your video. You confirmed what I instinctively was going to do :)
Thank you for posting videos like this! Your style of instructing is really nice and i can follow you right along
Thank you so much! I laughed out loud when you said you used this stitch to correct your stitch count!! I needed to do this for the exact same reason.
awesome thanks on my way havent knitted for thirty years so these tutorials are ace
Thank you so very much! You saved my project from being totally frogged. 😊
Perfect, clear and concise instructions.
Thank you.
Thank you for this awesome video! You have finally explained and shown how this stitch goes..I was doing it wrong...my scarf looks better already.
Thank you so much for the excellent tutorial. It looks similar to a M1L knitwise except for the last stitch. I have your video now saved in my favorites!!!

Excellent! And as always, timely for the project I’m working on :)
Thank you for this tutorial! I was trying to follow a written explanation with diagrams and I just was NOT understanding. This video is very helpful!
A really helpful tutorial. Many thanks!
Thanks! How do you increase ay te beggining of a row? Do I have to purl ome stich and then do this one that you show in the video?
Just found this (Sept 2024)! Thanks so much!
You're welcome! The great thing about knitting techniques is that they don't expire! :)
@@verypinkknits And hopefully, neither will these great tutorials!

Thanks so much for the clear instructions. Doing a pattern now that calls for this, but it's for a RS row. Does that seem odd?
Thank you so much, very helpful!

@@verypinkknits thank you I have the advice and well on my way 🙂
Thanks so much. You are brilliant! I don't know what I was doing, but it definitely wasn't correct! Thank goodness for RUclips :)
Thank you once again. Viva la Texas knitters!
thank you! you saved my project!

I appreciate this video - thank you!
Is this a left or right leaning increase? I have a pattern that calls for M1Rp and M1Lp. So I’m trying to figure out the difference
Can you tell me would you use this when front of work is reverse stocking stitch.
Thanks
Mary S - yes, this is the increase I'd use when the front of my work is reverse stockinette.
Can someone please tell me how to m1p when you are on the knit or right side?
+sbkir - the technique is exactly the same, regardless of the stitches you see around the bar you want to make the stitch into.
I hate this increase but I’m kind of glad the pattern I’m using calls for it so I can learn to hate it less. Maybe.
Help ! How do you knit and M1P into a YO ? Also how do you M1P and then purl into another YO?
I love your tutorials! I started making my own and I wonder how you get such a good angle on your hands. I can't seem to get my camera behind me without either having me in the way or it being on an angle. XD
Thank you! But help. Is this the same as "M1 and purl it"? I hope so. :-)
I've never heard it said that way, but my guess is yes. To be sure, you might want to contact the pattern designer for clarity.
Thank you for that information.
Yes, either way works. :)
Thankyou so much!
Thank you! Helpful!
Thanks.
THANK YOUUUUUUU !
Not the correct number of stitches is exactly why I'm watching this video!
Yup, I’m here because I’m fudging! 😂🤪
Very clear, thank you
