How to Pick Up a Dropped Stitch in Knitting For Dummies

[lenses14]

Thank you SO much! I had a ribbed pattern, so I needed to pick up both knit and purl stitches, and your video saved my work and lots of time :)

So what happens if you've dropped a stitch but didn't notice it and kept working the stitches? On my hat, I noticed and picked up a stitch to replace the dropped one, but kept on going because I wasn't sure (until now) how to fix it. Is it too late?

I have watched several videos and still could not successfully pick up a dropped stitch, until I watched this video. Now, I can move along with my first knit project. Thanks for your help!!!

What about garter stitch?

In my short 9 months of knitting I was afraid of dropping a stitch but not now and never again! I don't even know why people told me to use a crochet hook because this was sooo simple!

This is very easy to understand. I've been knitting for awhile but totally forgot how to pick up a dropped purl stitch. Thanks for the quick, effective, easy reminder.

Thank you so so SO very much! I have taken my knitting apart *four times* so far because I didn't think you really could fix dropped stitches. This was so easy and clear to follow right along with. You saved my knitting (and my sanity!)
