Since publishing this video, I have figured out a much better trick! I recommend you check out my latest video about working German Short Rows in the round here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gMxjas6Qu7zTmJs.html. I will still leave this video up in case people have linked to it but I promise the other video is much better.

Thanks putting descriptions in the actual video! A very big help to this knitter!!

Short and sweet. Thank you!

AMAZING TUTORIAL!!! I just completed my first German Short Row for a sweater using your tutorial - thanks for the excellent demo. I'll have to save this. Not sure what people are complaining about, but I found this very helpful.

I love this demo. The lack of distracting chit / chat compliments the actual knitting. Personally I find the pace of your knitting “right on”. I knit the same way. If it were any slower I would move on. Thus, this is the only technique video of in the round German short rows. I do appreciate that. Good job!

Now I understand! Thanks very clear.

this was very helpful, thank you so much

I am an experienced knitter and love German short rows. I have never been satisfied with how the German short row finishing round looks for those final stitches that are not approached from a turning round. The last little bit where you explain that final join is amazing. I own entire books on short rows. None of them have covered this.

If you have knitted all the double stitches are going to work a color pattern next, would you count the beginning of the round as the marker that marked the first of the last row of german short row or would the initial beginning of the row where the tail is count as that?

What happens if i made a basic double stich instead of a german short row ?

Re: Your tutorial "German Short Rows in the round" Thank you so much for taking the time to produce this video to show us this method. I found it very clear and so easy to follow. I have a quite old Cardigan top-down pattern with raglan sleeves. It starts with the neck ribbing, then begins the raglan increases and, at the same time, shapes the front neckline. Unlike many patterns, it does not use increases to add to the number of stitches at the front edges. Instead, the front neckline is shaped using short rows, first reserving a number of existing stitches at both front edges and then adding 2 of those reserved stitches at the end of each row, until all reserved stitches have been added to the main piece. For that part, I would like to use the method demonstrated in your tutorial. My question: given that this is a Cardigan, could I use the pick-up method which you demonstrated for the last 'double stitch' for all my double stitches, or is your method for 'in the round' only? Thank you for your help and, again, for your tutorial. I really enjoyed learning from it.

4:23 how to knit 'double stitch' from RS

I am so sorry but I am not able to follow your hands, I know you know what you're doing but I am trying to learn and I am not able to follow....thank you.

Enfin bien expliquer la je comprend un gros merci beaucoup

Este sistema me gusta más. Desde Chile 🇨🇱 Gracias 🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻

Thanks

Thank you so so much for your tutorial! I’m currently knitting a topdown sweater from Petite Knit called ‘no frills’ and it calls for GSR for its neckshaping. I’ve been watching your video over and over again to understand how to go about this pattern. The pattern calls for 5 set of turns in total and I’m really confused whether I should be using your ‘picking up double stitches technique’ for each and every double stitches I encounter? Or should this specific pick up double stitches be only used for the last turn round? (Thus knitting through double legged stitches as one for the previous 4 turn rounds?) Need your help desperately! Thank you! p.s) should ‘picking up double stitches technique’ be done exactly the same on both WS and RS?

What are you making?

Great video for the concept, but too fast to see clearly. I still had a hole, but it will be easy to fix.

Way too fast! It’s like your racing to see how fast you can go?

Sorry but Very difficult to understand, absolutely not getting what's going on. Plz explaine.

Enfin je comprend un gros Mercixxxxxxxxxx

What are you making here?

Thank YOU soooo...sooooo much !!!

Can you explain this please ?

It is very hard to see what you are doing when you turn back on the first row.

could you do it any faster ooooooh my god

I'd like to see it slower also, and in the context of what you're making. Maybe the finished (whatever it is). I've needed this type video for a long time so thank you, but slower please!

Slow down!!! I can’t tell what you are doing!

This video is useless as it goes too fast!
