Very clear. Nice to see this covered, since beginners are likely to make a mistake of this type.

I like your videos, they're easier to follow than most I've seen. I can't seem to find out how to 'tink' a kfb stitch. Don't suppose you have a video for that knocking around :)Thanks for all your great videos.

may i ask a question?

im doing the front of a jumper, when im shaping the neck, i found myself instead of casting on 73 stitches, i casted 74 stitches, what can i do to fix this problem?

THX!

@mudq0209 You can work a decrease somewhere discreet, or just leave it. One extra stitch shouldn't make such a huge difference.

how do i "tink" a purl stitch?? i'm doing dome ribbing and need help

[elsteffo]

Thanks for the reminder! I have the 'tinking in purl' video and just forgot to put it up. Watch this space!

D'oh! That video is on a different hard drive which is currently being fixed...I'm not sure if the info will survive the procedure. In the meantime, the most important thing to watch out for when tinking is that the stitches on the left-hand needle are facing in the right direction. If you are a standard knitter, then the front leg will lead. If you are a combination or eastern knitter, then the back leg will lead.
