Miriam Tegels - the fastest knitter in the world?

[alospm]

I wonder if she slows down when she's knitting for pleasure... Sometimes it's nice to go slow and enjoy the process!

[pebbleHathayBunano]

Oh - that's quick. I find knitting to music really helps me to speed up but its not that quick :)

[TheGreendude0]

she has my last name.... :O

[bgrrrlie]

I don't know if I knit continental or not, but when I lived in London and was knitting while riding the tube (subway) people were staring at how fast I was knitting! I wasn't this fast tho,,,,

[FilmNoirFan1]

After watchng another youtube video, I discovered that I've been continental knitting. This is the method I've been using for 35 years and didn't know it.

[FilmNoirFan1]

I can knit that fast.......in my dreams! I did not know until reading these comments that there were different styles knitting. I don't see how she can move the yarn and keep the tension. Well I'll just keep to my slow pace. I'll never be this fast.

[misslady1908]

Is she single, that's all I wanna know!!?? LMAO.

[RateMyKnitting]

WOW!

Good luck!

RMK

[catmaniac8x]

Lol...2 years after posting that first comment and I STILL can't knit that fast...and I have no clue what my knitting style is..XD

[sarahscareAH]

WOAHHHH that is awesome lol

[fresh3o3]

holy crap.

[celestial4you]

I don't understand the point of being so fast. It seems to take away from the fun of knitting. But that's just my opinion.

[MyGreyLady]

@celestial4you it doesn't look like she is not enjoying herself, she was probably fast and just got faster with time, so it's just as fun for her I would suspect :-)

[Disneylover1023]

WOW !

[Shiranshoku]

The 'title' she's got, is because she's in the Guinness book. She can loose every championship, as look as no one else breaks her record and gets it registrated, she'll be known as the fastest knitter in the world.

[corbinlover6]

She makes the other people feel slow and they are all staring at her:)

[jomypowers]

hahaha! check out the guy in the back...

he's done, like... 10 stitches XDDD

[catmaniac8x]

I don't think I can knit that fast, my style of knitting is a weird combo of continental and english...I think...I could be using the tuck method for all I know. What is the tuck method?

[greentrigger]

I bet she could make me a knitted hat in 5 minutes.

[aaronah123]

what method is she using ?

[EmpressOrchid]

its the tuck method...that's ALWAYS faster than english OR cont. knitting!

[xlovestruck223]

Whoa.

[kamakaehukai]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!

[HOGRULER]

how can you knit that fast!!!!!!! seriously

[potatoesandcream]

she got her world record!! woo!! 118 stiches in one minute!

[jack1jack2jack3]

flimsy jimsy is a much faster knitter

[phoenixfire89]

My God! She's quick!

[VidBint]

And that's the magic of continental knitting! Woot!

[teresawoolies]

super fast, hard to believe itrs real time, i cant master holding the wool for continentl.i just cant keep grip and tension.argh!!! i can knit the other way, or normal way as i call it.

[stell66]

Its hard to believe that is real knitting, I would love to see more detail, i get its continental, and that the stitches are moving from needle to needle but the rest is a blur.

wow!
