  • wow, i have a friend of mine that does backwards knitting, and i never even knew the technique existed until she showed me. it's a perfect technique for any piece that is made simply in stockinette stitch... BUT i have a question...can backwards knitting be done for ribbing??

  • @manda898 I'm sure it can but it makes my brain hurt just to think about it! :)

  • Thank you for your very clear videos! You go nice and slow and repeat the stitches so that it becomes clear. I also appreciate the camera being close up, nicely in focus, and the non-distracting simple blue background.

    Your videos are a great example of what instructional videos should be. Great job!

  • Thank you SO much for posting this, this is perfect for entrelac knitting!!!!

  • MY GOSH, I'VE BEEN KNITTING FOR YEARS AND HAD NEVER SEEN ANYONE KNITTING BACKWARDS....WOW...THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEO. IT'S REALLY CLEAR.

    P.S YOUR VOICE IS BEAUTIFUL..!!!

  • Would this work with other stitches than sockinettes ?

  • thanks! i'm so happy i found this vid! you are amazing!

  • This is great! You are a good teacher, and the video is close and clear.

    I will be working on this until I can do it as quickly as I purl.

    Thank you so much.

  • Another GREAT tutorial Miss Knit Witch!!! I did not know there was such a thing as that. I thought it was a "tink" (reverse knit) video for correcting mistakes.

    I will practice all your videos with my cheap white acrylic yarn. Thanks again!!

  • Wonderful video for backwards knitting. Thank you.

  • wow. amazing. I can definitely see the advantages to being able to knit backwards. I am going to have to try that with some of my scraps and do a swatch.

  • Thank you for this. I just wasn't getting it when reading it on Knitty!
