  • You're brilliant! That was so helpful! I was so confused when someone told me the ridges count as two. I was working on a project with stripes throughout and for the life of me could NOT figure out how to count 6 rows. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

  • @DullBlaze Oh, you're so welcome! I'm so glad that my video was helpful for you. :)

  • Thank you for this video. I have had a project on needles for over a year because I lost the paper that I was keeping track of my rows on. Now I know how to count them, and I know where I am at in the pattern. :) Now I can continue and finish. Thanks again!

  • @lemonfluffable Wonderful! You are so welcome. :) Happy Knitting!

  • you just do not know how helpful this was to me! Thank you! I have been crocheting since I was about 9 yrs old and am almost 60 now. Knitting was something I just could not grasp. Thanks to youtube and people like you... I am actually picking up knitting needles more than the crochet hook . you have a very nice day! (and I mean it too). LOL

  • @lDenise8 I am so glad that this was helpful for you! You are so welcome. :) It's wonderful to know that I could help you to pursue knitting. I hope you have a WONDERFUL day!

  • @Gi2110 Thank you! You are so sweet!! Seriously, counting rows on garter stitch is such a slippery process - I'm so glad this video enlightened you! PS - where are you in Argentina? I am also in Argentina right now - in Mendoza, spending the winter here. :)
