hello I'm VERY VERY new to knitting, The lady I got my equipment from, she just told me to keep doing stitiches without a pattern. i've just started & i think i got the knitting stitches down, but haven't yet done a Purl. When do I do a purl and doi need a pattern to do so. I also noticed that my tail is at the front of the needle, is that bad?
Hi Mrs. Moskowitz. I was wondering what brand and type of yarn you are using. I haven't been able to find a yarn quite as thick as the one you are using for demonstration. Thank you!
I'm so happy you make these videos! I am literally stitches away from finishing my FIRST scarf!!!!! I can't wait to buy more yarn and make more scarves (and of course, keep watching videos!!!)
I need serious help!!! I started out with thirty stitches and I did a couple of rows and I continued to have thirty stitches and then, out of no where, I counted again, and I had 32 stitches. I figured it was no big deal, until two rows later, I had 35 stitches, do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong? Can you tell me how to fix this?
Thanks to your excellent demonstration, I finally learned how to use a knit stitch, and have successfully knitted four rows! They aren't all that great looking, but I'm confident I will progress with practice! Thanks so much for taking the time to do this!
This video is simple, effective and very hands on! I learned more from watching this 5 min video than I have from reading and rereading my knitting "How To" books I bought to get started. I searched for a woman to teach me how to Cast On for months, having no grandparents myself, and the books didn't detail how to do it. This video was a big help! I've watched up to the third video, on a practice piece I started. I am finally ready to start a scarf on my own! Soon I'll be knitting mohawk hats!
i just bought my yarn 2 weeks ago starting with one i bought from the 99 cent store for practice.......... since i got it you cant believe how many u tube video's i;ve watched ...... this one by far really helped me great close up and explanation... i just finished my 2 row yay 4 me!!!!!!!!!!! ( p.s. i am a very NEW BIGINNER......... THANK YOU
Turning your knitting means that when you finish knitting the row> you are ready to start the next row. If you are knitting another row (garter stitch) then you knit again but if you are making a stockinette stitch then you turn the needle and ready to purl. It might help to watch my 2nd video Mrs. Moskowitz's Knits part II.
I'm a beginner and your video makes no sense. It's completely different than the last video I saw which was much easier. I don't understand why yours is so difficult but I can't even tell which end of the thread goes where because you cut out a critical section between :49 seconds and :50 seconds.
i am having trouble in knitting my (first) scarf....i dont know how tight to pull my yarn when i "throw" it over my needle.when i pull it a little bit tight, i cant fit the needle through the loop when i get to the next row.if i let it to loose then i just end up with a hole in my scarf. Also somtimes i accidently miss a stitch causing the width to change in a very noticable way.how can i fix it without having to start all over?!Please Help!!!!
To answer your question. It takes practice to figure out your "tension"-tightness. You don't want to have it too tight or too loose. I recommend watching my video again.
Your extra stitches are because you are putting the needle into the wrong place and then you create an extra stitch so watch the video again very carefully. I know you can do it. It just takes practice. I hope you are using size 10 needles or larger since it is easier to learn on larger needles.

When I make the last few stitches of theknit row, they are really loose and they don't appear as uniform as all of my previous stitches. What causes this? I have been practicing for days with no improvement. Any tips?
hello, i am trying to learn how to knit and i am very confused with all this. I have casted off, and am trying to do the other needle but i have no idea how i dont understand. I see what you are doing but it doesnt work myself ill try again
Hi, I think this is happening because when you did your cast on those stitches might have been loose. The last stitch is often loose so just try pulling down on the part you already knitted. I hope this helps.
Thank the Lord that this woman is alive. I'm trying to knit coasted for my family, and I had this book, but it doesent help at all. THANK YOU!!!!!! Now I can finally make coasters for my family!!! Yay! :D
i definately dont get it.... mine didnt look like yours :'( i can get the first stich onto the right needle but after that, i think it looks messed up
This is the most greatest show ever about knitting. In books I can't tell what to do, but this helped me a lot. I'm gonna start knitting tomorrow and watch this at the same time. Thank you for the video.
you may also find the book "Knitting for Dummies" useful. it contains step-by-step how-to instructions for knitting techniques. it uses easier-to-follow photos and illustrations, demonstrates basic knitting stitches and shows how to decipher patterns and work with multiple colors. It also explains how to fix common knitting mistakes and relax stiff shoulders and fingers.
I just keep on thinking that if I were to cut it, it may unravel. I'm new at knitting, so for some reason I think that weaving it wouldnt be very secure. I keep on wanting to tie a knot just in case, because I dont want my project to unravel!!
hi MRS.M. I would like to thank you for uploading this video. I have been looking for someone that knows how to knit for a long time now so that mabe they can teach me. then I happened upon this video. I never thought to look on youtube about this subject. thank you so much =^.^=
Thank you so much for posting this! I have been crocheting for about 5 months now and thought that knitting was soooo hard that I didn't even try! Well, I brought these needles half an hour ago and I'm doing the garter stitch! Thanks so much!
YEY! Finally a clear video I can understand! I've tried teaching myself to knit after success in crochet, and I just can't seem to get it together. After watching this I think there is still hope to make all those cute patterns I've saved for my baby on the way!
when you cast the slip knot...where do you cast it? I am just starting and making a scarf for my fiance (engaged-bad spelling sorry) to keep him warm during the winter, and this is my first one...so any tips would be most helpful :D
Mrs. M I have been trying to do the stockette stitch forever and I found by watching your video that I was knitting incorrectly. Thank you so much! Your instructions are so simple and easy to follow. Great work! Thanks so much!!
wow this is a really helpfull video but im am still so confused because when i make the first stich it becomes so loose and everything falls apart.Can u help?
this is the first How To Knit videos that actually tells you what to do as you do it. It is so much easier to understand! i am knitting a teddy bear, so this video is perfec to teach you how to knit!
but.... i have the problem when you have to go down with the second needle that doesn't have the cast on, on it and then it ends up being twisted up and tight, and then i have to let it go and it doesn't work
I can *finally* purl thanks to Mrs. Moskowitz! I had the knit stitch down, but I couldn't purl to save my life. I finally understand it now! Thank you Mrs. Moskowitz! :)
thank you so much i watched an other clip b4 urs and i tried it but it turnes out i wuz doing it wrong so thank you cause it waz ur video that showed me the right way :):):):):):):):):):)
Thank you Mrs. Moskowitz I wanted to learn to knit so I told my mother " you can learn anything online".. I watched other lesson on you tube but couldnt get the hang of it ..most dont show you how to "cast on"
your very patient and go slowly so it was very easy for me to learn from you.
my mom couldnt believe it she sat besides me while I learned to knit right in front of her eyes from the computer
Thank you Mrs. Moskowitz for your video. I was always nervous about learning knitting, but you made it so easy for me. I even learn to change colors. I'm proud to say "I've join your knitting team." I've recommended your video to my friends who know how to crochet. I myself love to crochet. I have been doing it since I was 14 years old. I would like to see more of your classes on YouTube.
Thank you, Mrs. Moskowitz! Going slowly, repeating and actually narrating what you are doing finally helped me to cast on! (with a little added help from the pause button). Thanks again! Mwah!
Ok, after browsing lots of videos trying to learn how to knit with the help of YouTube, I am SO glad I came across this video. You make this really clear and easy to understand. Thanks!
Mrs. M, you are awesome! Such a clear video, easy to see all that you do. Thank you, thank you, thank you... New subscriber here. Please keep making more knitting videos! Lovely hands by the way =D
Thank you very much for posting this video. I have wanted to learn how to knit for a while now, so I got a book on how to knit, but all it did was confuse me. I like how in your video you show exactly how to do each part. It makes it so much easier to understand. I just learned how to cast on and i am still working on how to do the next part, I've already had to restart a few times, but I'll get it figured out eventually. Thank you for posting this video.
Awesome job. I already know how to cast on and knit and purl but I still watched because it is a great job. I love the coloring that you used and the big needles so everything could be seen so well. You explained it nice and slow. Thank you.
hello this is great. you show so clear how to do it. my gradma showed to me how to do it when i was a kit and i had forgotten. now i dont have her to show me ......
i didnt ever understand how to do the stitches but know i do. thanks
thanks this relly helped.. my aunt had taught me how to knit but i kinds forgot how and ur vid really helped me!!! thank you sooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To make a long story short, my mother was running out of things to do since she's done some wonderful changes in her personal life. She was looking for something to occupy her time, and for Christmas she got some knitting supplies. I ran across your video for her and it helped her out a lot and got her excited about learning how to knit. Thank You!
Sorry you are getting confused. I recommend watching the "knit" video again. I have heard from other people that the video was helpful. You might need to hold the yarn as you watch the video a few times. Hope this helps.
I've tried books, and looked at other videos, but none were slow enough or clear enough for a true beginner.Yours was perfect--extremely basic! I just learned to cast on with you. Your large needles and blue yarn make it easy to follow, and your nice relaxed voice was like a real-life lesson. Thank you!
Your video is wonderful. It's the only video that I was actually able to learn from [and easily, too]. Thank you. ^^
I have one question, though. I'm trying to knit a basic one-color scarf and every row or so an extra stitch appears. I cast-on forty and now I have fifty. What did I do and how do I fix it? Or, at least, keep it from happening anymore?
i find it helps to count the number of stitches after every row, so that i catch mistakes earlier.
also personally i slip the last stitch instead of knitting it, coz sometimes it'll make it seem like there's 2 threads there not one, and u stitch through it twice.
Thanks so much for making this. I'm currently on bedrest for the rest of my pregnancy and this will definitely help keep me occupied. I've also wanted to learn how to knit, but never had the time. Now, I've got plenty of time on my hands. I got my hubby to get the stuff for me today and can't wait to get started on it!
My mom has learned a lot from your video! I am using her account for this and she is working on a granny square thanks to your video! But I have a question, can you make more basic stuff because she uses your videos as her main guide. She has even gotten me into it!
Thank you :)

Thank you Mrs. Moskowitz I wanted to learn to knit so I told my mother " you can learn anything online".. I watched other lesson on you tube but couldnt get the hang of it ..most dont show you how to "cast on"
your very patient and go slowly so it was very easy for me to learn from you.
my mom couldnt believe it she sat besides me while I learned to knit right in front of her eyes from the computer
Thanks again :)

Thank you Mrs. Moskowitz for your video. I was always nervous about learning knitting, but you made it so easy for me. I even learn to change colors. I'm proud to say "I've join your knitting team." I've recommended your video to my friends who know how to crochet. I myself love to crochet. I have been doing it since I was 14 years old. I would like to see more of your classes on YouTube.

Thank you, Mrs. Moskowitz! Going slowly, repeating and actually narrating what you are doing finally helped me to cast on! (with a little added help from the pause button). Thanks again! Mwah!

Thank you very much for posting this video. I have wanted to learn how to knit for a while now, so I got a book on how to knit, but all it did was confuse me. I like how in your video you show exactly how to do each part. It makes it so much easier to understand. I just learned how to cast on and i am still working on how to do the next part, I've already had to restart a few times, but I'll get it figured out eventually. Thank you for posting this video.

Awesome job. I already know how to cast on and knit and purl but I still watched because it is a great job. I love the coloring that you used and the big needles so everything could be seen so well. You explained it nice and slow. Thank you.

To make a long story short, my mother was running out of things to do since she's done some wonderful changes in her personal life. She was looking for something to occupy her time, and for Christmas she got some knitting supplies. I ran across your video for her and it helped her out a lot and got her excited about learning how to knit. Thank You!

mrs moskowitz can you show how you hold the yarn because i am getting confused
mikeizle200 4 years ago
Hi,
Sorry you are getting confused. I recommend watching the "knit" video again. I have heard from other people that the video was helpful. You might need to hold the yarn as you watch the video a few times. Hope this helps.
MrsMoskowitz 4 years ago
I've tried books, and looked at other videos, but none were slow enough or clear enough for a true beginner.Yours was perfect--extremely basic! I just learned to cast on with you. Your large needles and blue yarn make it easy to follow, and your nice relaxed voice was like a real-life lesson. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your recommendation.

Your video is wonderful. It's the only video that I was actually able to learn from [and easily, too]. Thank you. ^^
I have one question, though. I'm trying to knit a basic one-color scarf and every row or so an extra stitch appears. I cast-on forty and now I have fifty. What did I do and how do I fix it? Or, at least, keep it from happening anymore?
Thank you. ^^

i find it helps to count the number of stitches after every row, so that i catch mistakes earlier.
also personally i slip the last stitch instead of knitting it, coz sometimes it'll make it seem like there's 2 threads there not one, and u stitch through it twice.

Thanks so much for making this. I'm currently on bedrest for the rest of my pregnancy and this will definitely help keep me occupied. I've also wanted to learn how to knit, but never had the time. Now, I've got plenty of time on my hands. I got my hubby to get the stuff for me today and can't wait to get started on it!
