Fixing Mistakes: EASIEST Method for Laddering Up a Column of Twisted Stitches // Technique Tuesday

This video demonstrates an easy method for laddering up a column of twisted stitches that allows you to keep the hook in the live stitch (rather than removing and re-inserting, as the typical method for laddering up twisted stitches requires.)

Finally. This is what I needed the most: fixing into RT stitches. I am also looking for a good way to undo a RT... seems like nobody has a reel about that. But ok, I am super happy with this video. Thank you. ❤❤❤❤❤

The knitting brilliance of Joan Schrouder together with you makes me awestruck and reignites my interest in working twisted ribbing. Thank you so much!

Thank god for this! I realized about 6 rows below id done a reg knit st instead of twisted/tbl & it was right on the edge ribbing at the front of my cardigan so quite obvious - this saved me frogging a LOT of work unnecessarily! A huge huge thank you!!

Great timing for this- I just finished twisted ribbing for a hat band and tried to figure out how to correct the occasional dropped stitches and mistakes. I didn't so thanks so much for this tip!

This is great Roxanne! What a quick fix! I just saw Joan on Suzanne Bryan’s podcast a couple of weeks ago. Very impressive knitter. I would love to see a video on how to knit the Herringbone stitch in the round. I’ve seen a few videos but they are all slightly different. Just a suggestion. Thank you for another great tutorial!🌸🌺

@RoxanneRichardson 2 жыл бұрын

"Herringbone" is used to describe several different stitch patterns. I'd need an example of a specific one that you've seen used for flat knitting, in order to determine how to work that pattern in the round.

@theastewart6721 2 жыл бұрын

Ok thanks. I haven’t knit it flat yet either. I’m just trying to figure out a pattern and the tutorials I’ve watched all seem to have a different take on twisting the first stitch of each of the 2 rounds. I’ll see what I can find and do a swatch. And if you’d prefer I can post a question in your Ravelry group. I just think it might be a fun and informative tutorial. Not a big deal either way. Thanks for your prompt response! 🤗

@@theastewart6721 I'd say post in Ravelry. I do have a video planned for converting flat patterns to ITR, so it's good to see what sorts of patterns people are curious about that might be more problematic.

Thank you for your excellent tutorials. Please show how to ladder down on stranded color work to change the color of a stitch that was knitted incorrectly. When going back up there are so many strands, which is the correct one? Thanks

@RoxanneRichardson 2 жыл бұрын

If it's just an occasional stitch here or there, I use duplicate stitch to cover the original stitch with the correct color, rather than trying to ladder down.

I've looked through most of your videos and tried looking elsewhere but haven't found an answer to my problem. Is it possible to seam a sweater together from the wrong side? I'd like it to be fairly invisible but don't know what method to use. I don't do ig or Twitter, so I hope you see this and can direct to an answer. Thanks!

@RoxanneRichardson 2 жыл бұрын

Any reason you don't want to seam from the RS, using mattress stitch? That's the most invisible method of seaming. If you seam from the WS, with RS facing each other, as for sewing woven fabrics, you'd have to use something like backstitch. It creates a serviceable seam, but it can be a bit bulky, and isn't really invisible.

not related but: is it possible to put an intentional twist in moss stitch in the round?

@RoxanneRichardson 2 жыл бұрын

You don't need my permission to do something intentionally! :-) Try it out in a swatch and see what you think. FYI, there is a filler stitch pattern used in traditional Bavarian/Austrian traveling twisted knitting that is very similar to what you are describing. (ktbl alternates with p across the round, and is repeated twice more before switching to the offset for three rounds. I used it in several of my fingerless mitts patterns (Translated, Palm Tulips, and Deep Freeze Helix) You should be able to see what it looks like in my pattern photos: www.ravelry.com/designers/roxanne-richardson. Again, if you have an idea for something, just try it, and see what you think. You are the boss of your own knitting.

@@RoxanneRichardson Thanks R, I have just had a few goes and it does work, just need to find out how to cast off now. I have been making infinity cowl scarves in garter stitch in the round and purposely twisting the stitches after casting on. I crochet a picot edge on both ends/sides afterwards and with the additional twist in the knitting it has a really nice effect. Trying to do the same thing with the moss stitch now!

My most challenging laddering down issue is garter stitch or other mixed knit and purl columns. I looked through your videos and couldn't find anything.

@meganmills6545 2 жыл бұрын

I do that by conducting a small experiment first to remember which order to do the next part (under or over the first rung to get the bump on the side I want it). Once I've reminded myself what side to start on I insert the hook down the whole column of ladder-rungs by weaving it through them. Under one rung, over the next - until I reach the stitch I want to ladder up from. Then I start hooking up each ladder one at a time. By having the stem of the hook already "woven" through the rungs it gets placed for each successive row to be laddered up either behind or in front of the rung - and that's just what you need for garter stitch. I'll do a very short video of it shortly and call it "Laddering up garter stitch". It's just on a cell phone camera - no nice lighting or sound system so it will be rather rough and amateurish. But hopefully clear enough that you can understand it. :-) Okay - I've done the vid: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ntSdZtqos5mvk4E.html
