[EmeraldQueen206]

could I use the same technique when i knit lace/? is it OK to add anew ball of yarn on the purl side?

[knittingtipsbyjudy]

@EmeraldQueen206

yes, you can do it the same with lace. I always try to add at the beginning of a row though, if possible. you can also add on a purl row.

also works for working in the round as if knitting a hat?

@bellylaughing

you probably know by now.....yes, the same. please keep watching and look for me on facebook.

I'm probably the last person you want to hear from so soon...but how do you add in a new ball of yarn doing the bamboo stitch pattern?

[knittingtipsbyjudy]

@KnitWolf

you probably already figured it out, but my advice would be to try to add the new yarn on a purl row.

hope that helps you.

Very good video, easy  to learn.

[EmeraldQueen206]

Hi, Thank you for posting this video. I ran out of yarn in the middle of a row. Could I use the same technique you are showing in the video?

[knit1purl1]

I usually just tie a knot. This is much better. Thanks.

Now how do I do that when I'm a left handed knitter? The tail is at the bottom corner of the things I knit. So I do the same thing? Please tell me. ._____.

@EmeraldQueen206

you probably figured this out already....yes, you can. it;s always preferable to add new yarn at the beginning of a row, but sometimes you just can't. please keep watching and like me on my facebook page.
