I do mine log cabin style … do one edge at a time, turn and do the next edge, all around. Less needles that way and in a dark color you don’t miss the mitred corners. In a lighter color like this it might not look as beautiful though. Nice video … thanks!

Yep that’s another option, but my eyes just don’t love log cabin on a border! It’s all personal preference though, so many different ways to do things 🙂

I love watching your simple tutorials as I sit and knit. Can I suggest when casting off the garter St edge cast off on the wrong side it looks so much nicer on the right side. I've been knitting for 67 years and have picked up a few tricks along the way. Keep them coming ❤
@SnufflebeanYarn Жыл бұрын
I like casting off with right side facing because I actually prefer the little ridge you get from the cast off more than a raw row of garter stitches from casting off on the wrong side. We all have our own preferences and that’s what makes crafting so wonderful

It’ll work in the same way as I knitted it but as you’re working in stockinette it should be easier to pick up stitches - maybe slip the last stitch purlwise with the yarn in front to give you a nice play to pick up a stitch as you’ll only be picking one up per two rows?

This is perfect. I'm knitting "A Stitch in Time" blanket and I wasn't loving the way she does the boarder. I also may try and put the stitches on hold instead of binding off and then do a 3 needle bind off to join all my squares together. The ridge it will create might add a little extra interest. Do you think what I want to try will work?

Hi - How do you do a very large blanket? Eg 7 squares by 9 squares (each square measuring approx 6 inches)? Do you do this blanket edge by blanket edge, doing one square at a time on on each edge, then sew the seams of the border for each square together (only mitring at the blanket corner)? There would be no needles long enough to do the whole blanket edge in one go! Unless I'm missing something obvious?
@SnufflebeanYarn Жыл бұрын
You can buy cable connectors to make very long cable needs if you want to - it would be a mammouth task but possible! I’m a baby blanket addict myself so I haven’t ever knitted anything that large but I think if I did I would go down the cable connector route to get a seamless finish

@@SnufflebeanYarn I understand. I just wanted to double check. I assume the same thing could be true with picking up/knitting through the stitches of the short edge rows as you're knitting the long edges too, if you're careful enough... I hate sewing with a passion so if I could create the same result without it, that'd be amazing. Thank you so much for sharing the technique. I love the mitred edge and it's definitely nicer than just crocheting a border or the blocky joins. 🥰
@SnufflebeanYarn Жыл бұрын
Potentially, except the direction would be different with the long edges. I’m not a sewing fan but the 4 small edges in this border only take 5 mins to sew so it’s a comprimise I was willing to accept 🥰

@@SnufflebeanYarn I just realised that I think my explanation was a bit confusing here. Just to clarify: I didn't mean to pick up just a few stitches along the mitred edge of the previously completed cast-on/cast-off border, and then do lots of rows of garter... rather, I meant to do exactly what you did, but with the extra step of picking up an extra stitch through the edge of the mitre at the start and end of each of the long rows. I don't know if that's just making it more confusing. 😂But either way, I'll give it a try. Thanks for taking the time to reply to me. 🤗

With garter stitch I pick up in between garter ridges on the long edges and every stitch on the short edges - for stockinette edges you may need to do every other stitch. I use the same size needles for the edge that I’ve used for the main body.
