Frogging knitting, which is jargon for unravelling your knitting, is a frustrating but necessary rite of passage for every knitter. Knitting mistakes are bound to happen, and sometimes the only way forward is to unravel the knitting and start again.
It can be painful to watch all those beautiful stitches disappear with a simple tug. But once you’ve ripped back your knitting, a trickier situation arises: now that your stitches are loose, how will you put them back on the needle? Just jam them back on, willy-nilly? Absolutely not! There’s a right way and a wrong way to unravel your knitting. In this video, we’ll go over three ways to frog knitting.
** DID YOU KNOW? **
Knitters call unravelling “frogging” because it’s descriptive of what happens to your kitting: “rip it, rip it, rip it,” which sounds an awful lot like the sound that a frog makes: “ribbit, ribbit, ribbit.” Get it? Not the wittiest pun, but it’s stuck, and is now part of modern knitting vernacular.

In the past, I would have ripped the whole thing out but I just couldn’t bring myself to do that. I found your video and using the third method I successfully ripped out about 4 rows of knitting. The blanket is back on my circular needle and I am back in business again! Thank you again for your clear instructions on how to do this.

This has been the single most helpful knitting video I've seen ... and maybe not for the reason you think. I've just recently moved from crocheting to a round knitting machine and I'd been having difficulty understanding the anatomy of the stitches, so I could never understand why other vids would say things like "pick up every other one" ... but with this video you made the picture so freakin' clear to me! Talk about lightbulbs ... wow. Thank you so much! Also, the whole reason I searched for a video like this was because I'd done like 45 rounds too many for a project and didn't even realize until i'd closed the tube and was trying to attach it. *headdesk* I didn't want to rip the whole thing out and start over, just wanted to rip out the rows i didn't need, and couldn't think of a way to stop stitches from dropping. So this video helped in at least 2 ways. Thank you so much for the video and for being so clear with your information!

It took a few tries and taking out a few extra rows but it totally worked!! I was so excited!

Now I can look forward to future knitting projects. Thank you again for the gift that you share! God bless!

I looked through so many videos trying to figure out how to get my knitting back on my needle the right way after ripping out a mistake. NO ONE ELSE EXPLAINED EXACTLY HOW TO PICK UP THE STITCHES CORRECTLY SO THEY’RE NOT TWISTED! Thank you so much for your clear demonstration and explanation! I’m making a Christmas stocking for a family member because my mom passed away after making them for about 200 family members over the years, kids, grands, greatgrands, cousins, second cousins, their kids and grandkids, etc. I’ve never been much of a knitter and have really struggled with each stitch, changing colors, bobbins, etc. I was horrified to notice a huge mistake several rows back! So I ripped out the rows but then wasn’t sure how to get the stitches back on the needle. I tried it a couple of times but it didn’t seem right. Thank you so much for showing me the right way to do it! You saved this family heirloom!!

Thanks for the instructions. I have unraveled both by way 1 and way 2, 3rd method is a new for me and I would try it next whenever I need to unravel my knitting in future

This is my favorite tutorial for unraveling knitting. That cowgirl analogy is very helpful.

Thanks for the help. The 3rd method will be my savior I think with black worsted yarn I have had tons of trouble with thanks

Your knitting tutorials are really good and you explain things very well. I come to you a lot! You are just a wee bit West-Coasty "Awesome!" sometimes...but hey, I grew up in Portland, Oregon, myself. I probably wouldn't even notice it if I hadn't been living in England for the past sixteen years. Just teasing you a tiny bit - really, you are actually Awesome and thank you SO MUCH for your tutorials!

Thank you!!!! I couldn't really wrap my head around the 3rd way even though I really wanted to, so I did it the scary way but it worked!!! I really thought I was going to have to start this scarf over. You are awesome and I love your videos!
