Oh gads without you i would have the ugliest scarf to give my granddaughter. Im old and still have to ask for help. Thank you for this so much. Its so so simple eh?

So, I was very confused, cause every video I was finding was how to make a “DIY Chunk Blanket” and that’s knot what I’m doing. I started knitting when I was about 8, and I got into crochet thanks to it! I’ve been trying to make a blanket for quite some time now, but was never able to find such a helpful video! I have a book, but it only goes off of the basic leading things (lol) And for anyone still confused, and for myself if and or when I come back. R- Right Side L- Left side R- First and last stitch will be slip L- First and last stitch will be pearl (stockinette)

Thank you so much for helping me to understand this what I thought was a difficult edge stitch. You made it so easy to follow, thanks again.

wow...as easy as that and ive been doing my head in. I'm a complete beginner at knitting. But as an embroiderer I've always appreciated clean stitches. So, thanks for this

Thank you! I’ve wondered how to have clean edges. So appreciate this!

Thank you so much, edges look way better than before.👍🌟🌹🙏

thank you for explaining this so clearly. not one of the previous tutorials were as clear as yours.

Thank you so much for this. It was very easy to understand. I like the color you used and the needles because it made the stitch definition easy to see.

Thank you. Simple clear instructions. Finally understood. Watched so many videos that sound so complicated and twist yarn in such awkward ways. I like your style.

Thank you for having a nice, calm voice, not yelling and having subtle background music. I think people are forgetting that music should be in the background! :)

Thanks so much and thanks so much for not going too fast by repeating the instructions twice. I am a beginner knitter and any instructions that are slower and clearer are a great help. Thanks

Your video and explanation has been so helpful...so glad I found you. Thanks!

It”s easy and it works perfectly.. Thank you for sharing.

I have watched many videos on this but yours is the best!!! Thank you

Thank you for the tip!!!

Neat edges !!! I 💕 it. Thank You Very Much 🥰

Thank you!! This will DEFINITELY help with seaming.

Thank you. I particularly like your voice - perect. I am always anxious when I follow KZfaq tutorials.

Thank u for slowing down4 everyone ❤

Thank you! You did a real nice job demonstrating that!

Thank you so much for the slow version... now I understand how to do this... thank you

Perfect edging thank you for sharing 👌🏻

This is so awesome, thank you!!!

Thank you ! Very easy instructions. Now I know how to do a good edge slip stitch ! 🙏🙏

Lindooo tricô parabéns 🥰

Great Tip. Thanks for showing

Thank you for the very clear instructions 😊

Thanks for your easy instructions. It was a very good tutorial.

Thank you so much! This video is very helpful and easy to understand :*)

Thank You!

Nice 👌 now you have a new subscriber

fabulous fabulous

Thanks for the tip! I am now making a cardigan (my first project!) and am at the first cast off row for the back panel to shape the armholes for the sleeves. Would you advise me to continue this method throughout the decreases? I am noticing a large gap between the first loop on the needle (for the edging) and my other stitches. Thanks so much for the help in advance :)

Thank you for that. I don't have smooth edges most time. I always slip the first stitch

Finally! a tutorial that gets to the point quickly, with easy to see stitches! Thanks! God bless you. Romans 10:9-13; John 3:16-21

I will try it!

Nice. It looks like a plait is one edge :D

😲Thank you, thank you, thank you! 😁

This edge is exactly what I was looking for, but I have a few questions... The pattern I'm working on uses a garter stitch, and I've already started with normal garter stitch edges but I wanted to switch to the one you showed and the part I already did will be seamed with another piece using a crochet hook so it should be hidden, I believe. I'm kind of worried the seam will end up looking uneven. What do you think? Also, I decided to do the garter stitch with only purls and I tried to use this edge you showed, but I'm having a difficult time trying to purl the slipped stitch on the wrong side. Do you have any suggestions? Should I knit the first and last stitches on the wrong side instead? Thank you so much for the wonderful video. I loved it!

I wish I knew this sooner. I had no idea how easy it was:)

Thanks for this video. I am doing a k2 p2 rib stitch. Each row starts with a knit stitch and ends with a purl. On the right side, I am slipping the first stitch as if to knit and slipping the last stitch as if to purl. On the wrong side it seems to make most sense to knit the first stitch and purl the last. Does that seem right?

Ohhh WOW. I had searched this While doing a scarf..and I never seen this Tutorial .YOU ARE AMAZING!!! I've now learned EXACTLY WHAT IVE BEEN NEEDING.. IVE Shared and Subscribing!!! You are the BEST..And explain so EASILY!!! YES!!! I'M Going to search for ' ' Casting on a stretchy cast on ' Any ideas??

Thank you!

Thank you 😊

What I usually do is always slip stitch the first one, and purl the last one, every row - I get the same result, is there a difference to doing it your way? I find purling the first stitch can be really tough.

Hi, thank you for the demo. Could you please show me how do i change colours on the purl row?

Hi,thank you so much for this, what a difference but I’m stomped. I’m doing a trial run on a little cardigan before I use the correct yarn. What happens to the extra stitch at the beginning and the end when the row starts or finishes with Cast off 6 sts? Thank you

I have always slipped first stitch, this is the only way I have knitted.....my edges are always perfect for seaming.....it becomes so automatic ....I don t have to try to remember which way to go....I have taught many people this technique because they liked the finish I had on all my knitting

This was very helpful, thank you!!

Thank you for this :) I was wondering how you get the bottom(or the very first row of stitches you do) neat? Mine always look loopy and uneven. Can anyone reccomend a video that addresses how to make the bottom edge, rather than the side edges, neat?

❤

Hello and thank you for the tutorial! I wonder if you could help me understand something in a pattern. It says "Edge st: slip the first stitch of every row the opposite to how it presents itself." (does it mean purlwise?) an then "On alternate rows work all the sts an YO's in purl st except for the edge sts which are worked as indicated." (I cannot figure out "as indicated") Thx!!

How would you do it when you need to add a new ball of yarn? Thanks for your help

When I do that end stitches are always huge. Anything I can do?

What a great tip! Thanks. Just 1 ques. I am a new knitter... how do you know which is the right side on this kind of stitch? Can you please help!

Hello! Slightly silly question from a VERY beginner knitter- how can you tell the right vs wrong side of the work with a garter stitch? The first work I did was with a stockinette stitch, but I am about to try my hand at a blanket which calls for a garter stitch. I wanted to have as neat edges as possible which is how I found your video! It is super helpful overall, I just don't have a good eye for somethings yet! Thank you so much!

Can this method be used when doing cable knitting? Thank you for any help

How do you loose those extra stitches, do you count them as per the pattern or not?

What kind of yarn is she using? It’s such a cute colour!

If I'm doing reverse garter stitch will I be slipping the first and last stitch purl wise? Thanks

V.v.good

Thank you so much for this first of all! I tried this technique and I don't know why but for some reason the right edge gets the braided pattern but the left one does not, it is something else in itself. I do not know why that is happening, maybe because I'm a leftie and I'm doing something wrong whilst mirroring the video;_;

Hello! I just want to know what the difference is with slipping the first stitch knit wise vs purl wise? Hehe

Thanks 🧶

I have a question how do we start the project with this technique ?

How do we know what is the wrong side and right side?

What If you get distracted and forget whether you're supposed to purl or slip?

I tried to follow this, but the ends of my rows just look like knots, do you know why this is and how I can fix it?

If we are doing a blanket could we just puro each end for all

Thanks for your tutorial. I've actually created a method that is identical on both edges - front and back. However, when the rows of pattern are NOT consistent - 4 rows purl - 4 rows knit 10 times, the edges aren't as attractive. Every tutorial I've watched, we only see garter or stockinette pattern. Let's see a combination...

The edging is good, but not so good if two pieces need to be stitched together.

I don’t understand why I am adding two extra stitches at cast on, one at the beginning and one at the end. It seems that then I don’t have the right number of cast on stitches that the pattern would call for. And watching the tech nique it doesn’t look as though you’re ever losing those two extra stitches to even it out to what was called for. Help.

I have seen this exact same method on other youtube videos and it has been titled as... The English Slip Stitch Selvedge Edge. 💐 I'm very new to knitting, and can't understand why anybody would knit with needles that don't have proper ends on them to stop your work from sliding off 🤔

So it is " slip- skip and purl purl

I have a problem with all these knitting videos. I learnt to knit in the 'fifties when I was about 4 years old, and I do not knit like that at all! I'm told you knit 'continental fashion', and it really confuses me when I'm trying to follow what you are doing. I hold the yarn in my right hand, wrap it round the needle and pull it through the stitch: you hold the yarn in your left hand, and hook it through the stitch. Does everyone knit like this now? Trying to learn a new way of doing things is very difficult if the basic system is completely different! Have I got to start all over again after knitting for nearly 70 years?
