How do I continental knit the 2nd row??? Is it exactly the same as the first because I am just starting to knit and I hve only done the first row. If you can post up a video doing the 2nd row that would be fantastic :)))))))

check out my purl variation for the next row if you want stocking stitch (the sample shown here is stocking stitch) - or try another purl technique

cheers

sorry about the delay in replying.

This is exactly how I knit, but I havent learned to purl continental yet and I have no idea how to quickly go back and forth between knitting and purling,

I've been trying to become as comfortable with Continental as I've been all these years with English knitting. This is the first method I've seen that MAKES SENSE to my English-knitting fingers. Thanks!!

i just found out about 'speed knitting', but couldn't quite catch the grip from Miriam Tegels. This video helped SO much! i'll be knitting faster from now on! Thank you!

Yes, I do hold on to the fabric, and not the needle. I tap on the left needle every now and then, but I find my fabric hard to move.. I think it's just hand coordination though ;) I'm a loose knitter. In fact, I have a small hard skin patch on my right index finger from knitting too much hehe.
