This is hands-down the best tutorial I have seen on picking up stitches. I have never been intrepid enough to pick up seed stitches, but now I know how! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

This looks so much more simple than I thought it was to pick up stitches. This will save me plenty of time instead of un-knitting row after row. Thank you!

I never thought to turn the hook upside down for rescuing purls! How much easier that is than flipping the fabric front to back, and it is much less prone to losing track. Genius!

Consult with Suzanne, of course! Found this, and now I'm fixed! I reminded myself that knitting is a life lesson--- you have to recognize your mistakes and learn how to correct them!

Wouldn't it be great to have a crochet hook with hooks at both ends and a smooth middle? Then I think you could go back and forth without re-dropping the loop. Does anybody make that?

@SuzanneBryan 3 жыл бұрын

They do make those. What I prefer about this one, is the pointer end as well. I use both. But check out the double crochet hook ones too. You may like them.
