  • you go WAY too fast!

  • Omg, Knitta please.

  • i going to use this excercise to make a plate mat or scarf for christmas. I dont have any money to buy a christmas.

  • what do you do with the excess string once you've bounded off the piece?

  • Thank youuuu! I am so glad, everyone was telling me use a crochet hook but I don't own one!

  • dose this make me weired to have watched this?

  • omg... my advertisment was so scary. i wanted to see what it was so i kept watching. im garuntee im gonna have night mares

  • this waz super helpful thx a ton!

  • Ugh too fast. Y U THINK WE HAVE LIGHTNING SPEED HANDS?!

  • WOAH WOAH WOAH Your way too fast no offence!

  • This did bot help @ all!

  • i had the same problem as endurelife! thanks this video really helped refresh my memory!!

  • I like the way you make your slipknots. I'm going to start a job teaching how to knit and I might choose to teach it that way. Thanks!

  • VERY HELPFUL!

  • ass holes

  • @MrLegoman32 if you think its lame than why the hell would you watch it?

  • Why every1 doing it hard way? i make it a littlebit different way but mutch more easy. :D

  • for anyone who hates knitting. ^_^ just try CROCHET ( CROSHEY ) it's just one needle with a hook. for example try the CROCHET A HAT lesson on threadbanger ^_^ ! ! ! ! !

  • I need it slo mo

  • Mine is nearly 8 feet now. ^^ I'm making a Superscarf.

    I found a way that works better for me. instead of holding the thread with my right hand, and having to let go of the needle every stitch, I hold the thread between my middle finger and forefinger. I find it a bit more flexible.

  • good tutorial, i think it'll help me with ending off. only thing is i wish you clarified which method you were using for the knitting because i'm learning continental and i think it is much easier (especially since I learned crocheting first).

  • This video has actually taught me how to knit... THANK YOU!!! xxx

  • Then why did you bother to look of a Knitting video if you hate it LIAR!!!

  • where can i get the knitting tools?

  • I HATE KNITTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I made knitting needles out of a metal coat hanger.

  • this is how my knitting experience went:

    oh okay, this is easy.... wait what did she just do?... okay, i think im getting the hang of it.. FUCK.... okay lets rewind... and start again... GAH I MESSED UP!... well there goes a couple more lines.. and a couple....

    it seems easy, but i might just be insane

  • @mayapapaya33

    haha! one of my friends said the same thing. i learned how to crochet first and watching this i can see where my crocheting skills can come in handy.

  • theres nothing easy in modern knitting

  • i hate khitting its too hard

  • @yehjeaner I AM TOO!!! haha i literally just went, " i think i wanna learn to knit mom, do we have chopsticks?"

  • awwh. thank you so much for this video!

  • Im using pencils to knit

  • 0.o the yarn between my needles keeps getting longer with each loop xD wtf!!

  • @imimaginingchaos lol, me too!

  • holy fucking shit this is difficult

  • i agree with erzin124 but all in all the video was grreat but next time yah make a video make sure yhu talk to us like we r retartds thnkx yah

  • you should make this in slow motion. I have to pause this and rewind like 5000 times.

  • ? i get how to make the first row but im not sure how to start second row @.@

  • @NinaAnny Same lol

  • Comment removed

  • im using pencils lol

  • it dosent make sence when it gets to the ex part :|

  • i seriously dont get this!!

  • toooooooooooo fast. im an absolute beginner and i kept having to reverse it OVER AND OVER again and i still didnt catch much. does ani1 kno another slower vid?

    

  • like i get how to cast on and all of that but once i get to my 3rd row i don't know how to do the rest can you explain it a little bit better

  • I already knew how to crochet, but I did not know how to knit. I saw knitting needles at a dollar store and thought I'll give it a try. I watch several how to video on you tube and I didn't get it. Until now, Wow I got it! You are a good teacher, thank you so much. I still feel like crocheting is like driving a car that's an automatic and knitting is like driving a stick shift, but thanks for the new skill. You Rock!!!

  • can you please teach me how to sew two things together? i have things that are ripped but still new and i wanna keep it. thankyou! :]

  • go a bit slower

  • My son asked me to come to his Teachers knitting class and even though it was my first time I enjoyed it, I think I am going to like this. Thanx Threadbanger!

  • this is why I love threadBangers super easy to follow and I'd like to say thank to you and utube lol.

  • you make it look sooooooo easy but IT ISN'T AND I JUST WANT TO LEARN HOW TO KNIT AND IM 10. PLUS CAN'T YOU MAKE AN EASYIER VIDEO

  • @KoakoKangaroo00119

    It isn't easy! I think they explained it very clearly.

  • Is she really using her fingers to bind off? Wow. That is fucking stupid.

  • Re: chopsticks to knit (love that comment!)- I use pencils and chopsticks to knit out of desperation to knit something! anything! quite often :) I am surprised I don't just keep emergency knitting needles in my purse :)

  • I keep getting a lot of excess string inbetween the needles on the first row. Is it ok? or what am i doing wrong?

  • confusing D:

  • This video is a good start...but to fully get it. You need an actual person that knows how to knit, to show you how and practice with you.

  • i don't get the first step of making a loop i'm dumb

  • Yeah, I better just stick to crocheting. Knitting looks much more difficult.

  • So I actually haven't tried to knit yet, am just looking for helpful videos as I and my best friend are expecting babies this spring. We decided we want to learn how to know baby booties. I can't wait to try, this video makes it look as though its not that hard. :)

  • This is soo confusing whenever i do it i made a slip knot !!! :(

  • I dont get it can u make a better ideo !!!

  • This is the most useful knitting video I've seen on Youtube. Thanks guys!

  • i love knitting wonderful video and yes it was helpful

  • No. I'm soooo confused.... I don't get how you're moving the yarn between the needles; every time i try to let the loop go off of one needle and onto the other, I lose my loop and just get string.

  • ok, i think i got it now. thanks!

  • this is way to fast to follow.

  • Um, pausing doesn't help when u can't tell what they r doing....

  • i didn't had the yarn or the needles so i used 2 pencils and the elastic strap from my gym shorts x3

  • diis iishx dumbb iive triied nnd& triied nn triied iiht dont wurkk maybeee yall nedd 2 b a liil slowerr 4 beggiinners .!

  • this is the most simple and easy way i've seen and i found it to be a coincidence im about to be an aunt and im going to knit the baby a blanket and its my first time knitting 

  • Holy sh*t people. Hit the pause button. 

  • no more metal chik?

    sniff sniff

  • this is one of the most helpful videos I've seen 4 knitting.

    I love you guys and your vids.

    This one is super old but its super helpful!

    Love Ya!!

  • LOL so many negative comments..can't you press the pause???

  • for somone who has never knitted before, this video went waaay too quickly

  • @ec101010 hit the pause button for each step then.

  • i still can't pass the first row. I'm done with transferring the cast on to the other needle, but now im stuck with the slip knot on one needle and a full row on the other. What do i do next?

  • @XAYSHUNEKSTASYX take the slipknot off of the needle and knit on the other row

  • Love this video. It was the easiest cast on I have ever seen. Can you tell me how to easily deconstruct a sweater to re-use the yarn?

  • umm...can someone make me a response so i canbeable 2 do the frist row? i really cant do it!

  • this channel is like a TV show...this is so cool!

  • a waste of 2 hrs tryin to fiqure this out. hahaha i think i broke youtubes pause button:)

  • you had 2 needles with row at 1:47..the video is fasted and in a suddent cannot see what did she do with the other row!!???

  • Comment removed

  • it says Work across 23 sts, slip next 22 sts onto st holder: with second yarn, work across 23 sts each side.

    Does work across mean to knit or purl as this is in the Neck shaping section

  • @2curling work doesn't mean knit or purl, it means the just knit the stitch that is to be used for that row

  • it says work across

  • omgg what is the point that is not how you cast on because when it comes to the end of your first stitch it goes wrong why ? no affence its rubishh

  • Dear ThreadBangers, OMMG, THAT MADE THINGS SOO CLEAR FOR ME ! THANKS YOU.

  • Dear threadbangers,

    love the videos, but would really love one on how to crochet a peruvian earflap hat as a great winter hat ;)

  • I think im doing it right but once i reached the end buy the slip knot i cant do the X thing to continue

  • i hate kniting thow i do it.

  • Hey do you have a teaching video for how to make a hiney cover? I would love to find one!

  • wow, i used to know how to knit and i had lost it and was trying to pick it back up and this has been the MOST helpful thing i ave found, thank you for taking the time to make this vid, i appreciate it :)

  • I'm trying to start knitting clothes for myself but I'm on a tight budget, I picked up some good ideas at ebeginnersknitting (.) com

  • Comment removed

  • Yarn people! Cute.

  • can somebody tell me what kind of needle is used?

  • thanks this was helpfull! now im going to try it!!!!!!!!!!!! wish me luck!!!

  • this was soooo helpfull ! now im a knitting machine!

    Thanx!=]

  • This is so much better than the other knitting videos I have seen. Thank you! :)

  • are u wearing a friendship bracelet?

  • i have a MAJOR problem! i was knitting, and i had thread on both needles. my dad was talking to me so i stopped for a minute and set my needles down. now, i dont know which side i was putting the thread through and i dont want to mess it up again.... please help me!!!! which side can u determine u were on? thanks :)

  • @peaceout997 The side you used to actually knit with, is the side that has the yarn attached closest to it. So for example say you were holding both needles in your hands. Whichever needle has the working yarn closest to it, is the needle you use to continue to KNIT with, while the other you just hold as the stitches are being knitted off it.

  • Sadly, this is the most helpful video on YouTube for people completely new to knitting. Watch it for the knitting help, not the ain't-that-cool hipster mumbo-jumbo.

  • sooo fast!!!!!!! gosh!

  • oh my gosh i LOOOOOVE knitting :D this is so cooool. that's why i do it all the time ^_^ ! ! ! ! !

  • my mom knows how to do this :D

  • this video teaches a lot. I love it. hanck for posting it

  • WATCH MY KNITTING TUTORIALS! :)

  • it doesn't matter if you can go back and forth if it's too fast. there's no slow motion button on youtube! Casting on goes so fast that I can't figure out the geometry of it.. it just looks like magic.

  • AHahaha, the asian kid.. did you guys hear the background talking?? that's so cute. :]

  • Too quick, I thought it would have been better if you had gone slower and explained in more detail...

  • SLOWER SLOWER SLOWER

  • I'm nine and I already know how to knit I am using different colours, I am using orange and peach! Watch me video about knitting! I will show you the scarf that i am working on!

  • @Nancycutie004 nice when i was nine (im ten right now) i knew how to knit too!but i sorta forgot and my grandma is making dinner so i watched this.

  • Girl you rock! The first part of knitting (the part where you start making loops after the slip knot) was the most hardest thing for me ever! You showed me a different way to do it and i thank you so much!

  • Knitting is way harder then Crocheting.

  • toooooooo fast!

  • I can knit.. my mum taught me last year, but we cast on differently! I think it might be because we're from England but who knows... same result so it doesn't matter :)

  • i can`t ;(;(;(

  • YEY I'M KNITTING!!!!

  • uuu need to goooo soooooooo muchhhhhhhhh slowwwwwwwer

  • Wow, don't move so frickin fast!!!

  • i get the vidio but the thing i dont get is that when ever i am kniting the yarn in the middle keeps on getting bigger and bigger by the stich!!! IF YOU KNOW HOW TO FIX MY PROBLEM PLEASE HELP!!!!! IM DESPRET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Thanks this video really helps me for my blanket that I'm knitting :)

  • Easy peasey, looks good!
