This was extremely helpful. I couldn't understand how to begin to create the neckline of a sweater until I saw your video. You explained it soo clearly, and now I feel like I can actually attempt to do this. I like the idea of creating a swatch to practice the neckline too. Your a terrific teacher. Thank you!

But I FOUND IT once I remembered it was about binding off in the middle of a row. THANK YOU for saving my buttonholes and the leg holes of the dog's sweater from being a mess. As usual the best teaching on the web as regards all things knitting.

Especially because they are booked out weeks in advance. And I don’t want to start knitting for weeks while I wait to get help. So thank you very much.

I'm actually a loom knitter , I think this tutorial will help me? I started loom knitting a little more than a year ago. I wasn't really sure how much I'd like it because I mostly make things for my dollhouses and the Chelsea hybrids that I made? After I figured out how to do doll clothes, I decided to get a small gauge Loom. Then down to a 1/4 fine gauge. And of course small gauge yarns. I've even used crochet threads, recently started trying nylon threads. I've had a really bad couple of years and it's helpful to stay busy. I've been learning about converting needles to looms. You seem to be the only person I've found that addresses the issues I'm having for the neckline and armholes? So thank you 😊

So helpful. I have a favourite pattern (Richmond Wristies, on Ravelry) created by the owner of my LYS, Milli, in which the bind off and cast on forms a gorgeous pattern but I was frustrated by the loops of yarn. I tried KTBL on the next row and it helped a little but didn't eliminate the problem. Now sorted in time for me to knit a pair for a good friend who has requested a pair for her upcoming zero birthday in January. As always, thank you, Roxanne!

@RoxanneRichardson
@RoxanneRichardson 5 жыл бұрын
You have to knit the last stitch, in order to bind off the 2nd to last stitch. You just can't bind it off. Some people fasten off that last loop (bring the yarn tail through it), but because of how the chains are seated from the center of one stitch and the center of the next, fastening off causes that last loop to extend really far to the left. If you cut the tail and enlarge the last loop until the tail pulls out, it won't stick out so far.
