  • Is this, like, the left-handed way of knitting or?

  • @kEwLgAl127 I believe they will work for righ or left handed people, continental or english style

  • do you know how to get rid of the little line on the wrong side? Like when you do the color change when you start knitting, one of the side has the other color you just added. And it looks like a little line or like sewing kinda thing

  • You may do a duplicate stich with the yarn, but it may not look nice. Also a tubular scarf works wonders.

  • Do you have to use something special to make a tubular scarf? Or can you knit one and then turn it into a tube? Can you use a sewing machine to stitch a seam for that?

    Also, your videos are very neat. ^^

  • YOu can use double pointed needles or one or two circular needles, you may certainly sew wool with a sewing machine. Look at Steeking for more info.

  • see, now my big question that none fo these videos answers is, what do you do with the loose end of the yarn that doesnt get knitted into the project (im a beginner knitter, so sorry if this is a stupid question)

  • @doubletfarms There are two different types of knitting: Continental and English.

    In Continental you hold the working yarn (the yarn from the ball) in your left hand. In English you hold the working yarn in your right hand. Continental works best for me, but different people use different methods.

  • I knit continental but I saw all the women in my family pick up the yarn from the top to bottom and bring it into the stitch on the needle, so that's what I do. I never saw anyone grab the yarn from under like you do but if it works why not?

  • it's interesting how you wrap the yarn while knitting..you hold the string in your left hand and wrap behind the needle?! I hold the yarn in the right and wrap around towards me!?

  • qaws0987 - you undo it and do it again, properly
