How to Kitchener Stitch Toe Without Ears. This is a neat little trick for omitting the ears on a kitchener stitch toe. Great for afterthought heels too. This is demonstrated using the Continental Knitting method.

When I first started knitting, I remember seeing socks knit by a man who knit only socks, and was impressed by how beautiful his Kitchner toes were. No pointy little dog ears, which I've always disliked. I thought it was because he had years of sock knitting practice, but I realise now that he had been using your method. I now also use your method, and the toes of my socks are beautifully rounded too. Thank you so much!

This is by far the best Kitchener video I’ve ever seen. I’ve been making socks for several years and always make errors in my Kitchener….always….. Even in spite of this great video, I have to stop the video after every step and can’t go forward without watching. I know the mantra in my sleep. The front side is no problem but on the back a knit doesn’t look like a knit and a Purl doesn’t look like a purl and I guess by now I’ve done thousands. It must be a dyslexia thing. Anyway, this video offers me the first real hope that I might learn it one day before I shuffle off this mortal coil.
