Our videos are not meant to teach very basic knitting techniques. We present more advanced techniques for experienced knitters.

If you are looking for how to cast-on, knit, purl and other basic knitting techniques there are many other videos.

Once you understand the basics, come back to our channel and learn how to take your knitting to new heights!

I would like to know how did u start with the triangles...

If you could post the beginning.. would be great

Thanks

[letsknit2gether]

@maritate Check the show notes at letsknit2gether com episode 56 for complete detailed instructions including the short rows for the starting triangle.

[mApL3HoLiC]

this is a bit challenging to understand especially since i can't do backward stitches yet

[letsknit2gether]

We do not demonstrate knitting backwards in this episode, but it can be used to save some time in turning.

After you have completed all tiers, how to do keep going? I have only one stitch left on the needle and the pattern tells me to bind off. But I want to make a long scarf, how do I continue?

[lauralee31415]

omg i would do this... except i hate turning the work for regular rows... so this probably isn't for me ^_^ you're a good teacher thought :)

[ajames22young]

I love your videos. I dont have knitting needles right now since Im a beginner. I have a pair of chopsticks Im using and they work great.

@letsknit2gether Where are the 'show notes'? I don't see anything on that site. I cannot figure where to pick up the loops...from what triangle?? The side triangle or the 3rd triangle from the first 3 that I did? I wish there were better pictures to view.

[TAMSunshines]

Although you did teach or went over some of the techniques & parts of the stitches, you completely ignored others!!! Why didn't you start this video from the very beginning showing how to knit the first row?

Then you completely glossed over knitting in the front & back of the stitching. I'm very new to knitting & would have liked to see more or all of the techniques reviewed, no matter how basic.

If the rest of your videos are like this one, then I probably won't watch anymore of them.

[TheRazorjane]

your videos are very helpful, THANKS

@maritate

Yes me too. Every video i have watched starts after the first set of triangles or further up

[fairymairah]
