This was the best explanation of a ribbed kitchener that I viewed. Thanks!

I have been challenged to figure out the Kitchener stitch for weeks now on my 2 by 2 ribbing bind off project. Your simple mantra “same off, opposite on” has opened the door for any future kitchener bind offs I may come across. Thank you so much for sharing this technique!

I’ve used your video like five times now making little ponchos where the hood ends, top of the hoodie … thanks so much!!

Super duidelijk deze uitleg en algemeen toepasbaar. Same off, opposite on en houdt de draad onder de breinaalden.

This is the most memorable method I have ever seen. The “Same, off; opposite on” makes me visualize a key in a lock. The “same” sets the loop free.

Grafted my first seam thans to this video. Thank you!!!

Thank you for this clear explanation of the Kitchener graft/ribbing. The mantra “same off, opposite on” did the trick for me.I’ll be saying it in my sleep. Thanks again for taking the time to post this tutorial.

Heather, thank you for your revolutionary insight in this! So far superior to “front”, “back”, “as if to purl”, and so on. I am about to tackle a 3 purl 1 knit rib in a horribly fuzzy yarn and you have saved my sanity. Eternally grateful and have bookmarked all your wonderful video tutorials. You are now my go-to knitting info source!

I looked at a number of videos for one that explained how to Kitchener stitch a KP ribbing in a way that made sense to me. The quality of video and the clarity of the instructions on this video far surpasses the other offerings. Thank you so much for explaining a simple method of joining any stitch pattern.

This is the simplest explanation I have seen yet on this and finally addresses a pattern without all knit or all purl stitches. I have been stopped and completely intimidated by this stitch until now! Thank you so much!

Oh saying that “opposite on” makes so much sense!!! I’ve learned a great tip. Many thanks!!

Wow, so well explained. Love it. Thanks

Thank you for this tutorial. The mnemonic device you use is fabulous and helped me get through grafting a headband together.

Thank you for teaching it as same off, opposite on. I struggle to remember the kitchener steps and this makes it much easier!

I just found this tutorial and I need it pronto! Grafting lace to lace and wasn't sure it could be done. Your instructions are very clear. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

😁Thank you so much for your tutorial! With your help, I finally just completed a neckline reknitting/repair on a vintage sweater made in lace weight yarn! Your Off:same; ON opposite mantra is wonderful!

Thank you so much Heather. I have been down the rabbit hole a little bit today looking at grafting 2x2 rib and your video really helped in the understanding of what to do with the individual stitch. "opposite on" "same off" worked for me! 🙏🙏🙏

Brilliant! Now I can finish up my 6x6 ribbed cowl! Thank you!

I'm grafting a pattern of 10 knit 2 purl 10 knit 2 purl etc. To make matters worse, the 10 knit parts are cables. I realized that I should be able to combine the two kitchener stitch techniques for knit and purl respectively, but I'm very pleased to see it done in this video. Thank you!

Thank you! I'm getting ready to join some ribbing with kitchener stitch and this makes it so much easier!

This is the best and easiest to remember, makes perfect sense Kitchner tutorial for ribbed stitches ever!! Thank you so much for making this ♥️

Absolutely Brilliant! Best and easiest way I’ve seen yet, Big Thank You!

Clear, logical and very helpful. Thank you.

Best tutorial I have watched. Thank you 😊

Thank you!!!

Thank you so much.

thnx for the clarity! Your technique is a lot less "scary" than most....

THE clearest, most sensible, most helpful video I've seen! Thank you Heather! You're fantastic!! Oh, and thank you for pointing out the half-stitch jog so I know I didn't blow it - it's just the way things are. Perfect!

This is brilliant!!! Beautifully explained. Thank you so much.

Thank you for the teaching. It's very helpful.

I thought the technique made sense. But, I did have some trouble and confusion. I did 2 sample swatches of 2x2 ribbing and when I held the 2 needles together with wrong sides together I had a knit stitch presenting on the front needle but I also had 2 knit stitches presenting on the back needle as well. Heather's back needle had 2 purl stitches at the beginning. So, I do not know what I am doing wrong. However, as the instructions say the technique can be used with any stitches, I am hoping it will work out. My first attempt did not. I will continue to practice.
