Some people can teach and some can't - you are a GREAT teacher! Perfect explanation- thank you sooooo much!

Thank you for this explanation. No one explains these details as perfectly as you do. Your videos are perfectly clear and easy to follow. I certainly appreciate you sharing your knowledge with all of us. Rachel S.

I refer back to your videos every time I'm working on a sweater. My eyes have a hard time distinguishing stitches when it's time to pick up and knit. I made my very first cardigan with a button band thanks to you.

I am in the process of making my very first cardigan and will be watching this on repeat so that hopefully my neckline will look half as good as that!! 🥴 I love your tutorials thank you so much for taking the time to make them!!!

Hi Suzanne, I am so glad that I watched your video. I finished a sweater and was read to pick up and knit the neckline in a 1x1 rib. Your video was very clear and I didn't have any trouble with picking up the right stitches. Thank you so much. Your instructions are outstanding.

One of the best tutorials I've viewed. Your instructions are so clear and your camera technique makes it so easy to see and follow. Thank you for making these!

As always, Suzanne, you are a lifesaver! I hate the frustration that comes without knowing why stuff happens wrong and how to make it right...this way I get it right the first time!!! THANKS!

Really clear explanation. I’ve been scared to ad lib picking up stitches, but will be following your approach from now on. No more holes!

Hi Suzanne, decided at the last minute to check out this video again, just to be sure, as I started the neckband on a sweater. Glad I did! Thanks for making the best technique videos ever!!

I'm a self taught knitter who's only come to knitting in later life with the advent of grandchildren. This video is absolutely brilliant. It's so detailed and has enabled me to pick up and knit the stitches for a collar, making a join that's all but invisible. Something I can be proud of. The only downside now is that I want to go back and redo all previous pieces! Thank you so much.

Thank you!!. I had been picking up neckline stitches using the cast off stitches!!!

Vero useful! I never used a gauge for this and i will from now on! Thank you Susanne!!!

Brilliant...I love learning and I've been knitting for over 40 yrs...always something new to learn!

Thanks for clarifying this for me, in order to properly pick up stitches for sleeves, etc!! Great video & instructions!!

You are the best! I’ve learned so much from your clear and informative videos. Whenever I have a knitting question or problem I search for your videos first! Thank you!!

Excellent instructions. Good voice of yarn and colour to instruct with, it’s very pleasing to the eye and easy to decipher exactly what you are doing.

I always learn so much from you, Suzanne! Thank you so much. 😊

Thank you so much. I learned a lot...how to pick them up properly, and I've been knitting for years. Thank you again.

I'm so grateful I found you. I do knitting very rarely because I'm afraid I will come out with very difficult stitches. Today I went with three youtube knitters and was unable to get stitch. Watched you for a second and wow!!!! Right away my brain lighted up. Got it on first try. Thank. From now on only one person; YOU. I"LL BE KNITTING MUCH MORE. THANK YOU.....BLESSINGS.

I always look for your video's on what I need to brush up on and am amazed at how easy you are to watch and learn from. It is much appreciated

This us exactly what I needed. Truly exquisite explanation. Thank you a million❤❤❤❤❤❤

This is amazing! ❤️ Thank you so much for recording this video and sharing your knowledge. 🙌🏼🎉

Thank you Very much... your tuts are most helpful and easy to remember because you take the time to explain each step as well as guiding on the Do's and Dont's... This is a 5 Star Quality video tutorial ☆☆☆☆☆

You have a great knack for conveying instructions and the tone of your voice is reassuring throughout the video. Very easy to listen to and follow your advice. Thanks so much.

Bravo. Saving this video to review every time I have to pick up (oops! pick up and knit) stitches.

Love the clarity of your teaching on this subject! I have put off finishing two sweaters because it looked bad and I had to rip it out twice already. Now I am ready to try again with this new knowledge. Thank you

My grandmother taught me to knit and she passed away after years ago. No one ever taught me to pick up stitches properly. Thank you so much for this video!

This was incredibly helpful - thank you!!

Thank you Suzanne! You are a wonderful teacher!! And I have learned so much about fixing things I didn't know how to handle.

Thank you for this helpful video!

Thanks for sharing your expert tips! 😊😊😊

Hello from România! Thankyou sooo much for helping me learn how to knit. Since i discovered your tutorials, i keep returning to them every time i start a new project. You are a brilliant teacher! Bless you!

Thanks Suzanne, this is really helpful!! 😊

Thank you Suzanne! I learn so much with your videos

Brilliant. I learned so much from this. So many gems in your videos. Thank you so much! ❤

This is SO helpful!!! I have always been spooked by this phase of sweater-making, and have avoided making sweaters because of it.... No longer!!! I am about to wet-block sweater pieces according to your instructions in a different tutorial, and feel confident about having a good experience with picking up stitches around the neckline - thanks much!!!

You are the SUPERSTAR among the expert knitter, clearly explained and illustrated. Thanks for sharing your expertise. 🌹🌹🌹

Thank you so much for this clear and great video! Amazing 🙂 Greetings form Germany!

Thank you, I enjoyed how you explained it all!

Best tutorial! ❤

Beautiful demonstration once again Suzanne. I'm about to add ribbing to a top down sweater that didn't have a ribbed neckline but I think needs one. Thanks for your video.

After 61 years of knitting, I am STILL learning. Thanks, Suzanne!

That was so helpful.. Thanks.. Your work is so perfect!

Another great tutorial! I'm working on a sweater at the moment and your videos are so helpful for me. Thank you very much!

Just what I needed for my project! Thank you…

This is just what I needed. Thanks!

Thank you! You are a great teacher! I have learned a lot since I found your site.

Absolutely perfect 👌🏽 You’re a natural at teaching 💓

You are the best teacher I have found in thousands of videos I have watched. You explain everything so well! Your videos are so clear and helpful! OMG! I am so happy I found you! I already subscribed of course. Thank you so much for taking your time to teach with such a patience. ❤

Brand new knitter here, and this tutorial was *so* helpful. Thank you so much!

Thank you for this tutorial and all others. Clean and simple directions.

I'm probably not quite ready for this but, thank goodness for KZfaq. I will be ready sooner because of you. Thanks for posting.

Wonderfully done, as always!

loved your description Thank you

Thanks for your clear instruction. Really appreciated!

Thank you... you do such a good explanation with great patience. I appreciate your videos so much. Have found you while I've been working on a cardigan for my great grandchild... first time making a cardigan--you have been very helpful and we're all pretty appreciative as I read the comments! Blessings.

Thank you. This is helpful.

You are simply the best!!!🤩

Thank you! This is exactly what I needed to finish my grandsons' sweaters.

You are an amazing teacher. Your techniques are solid and carefully delivered.

New sub here and I am so glad to learn about the technique that makes perfect sense. Thank you.

This is fabulous! I have picked up stitches incorrectly for years and been so disAppointed in my garment. You have a great teaching style!

Really good and straight forward

I have sent a week trying to get the neck of a cardigan to look right. so many thanks for this video : -) it's so easy for a new knitter to understand x

so helpful! thank you!!

Great video just what I was looking for. Loved that your explanations explained why you were doing what you were doing with the right amount of information not too little or too much for a beginner like me.

Thank u s much. I was about to pick up and knit without blocking, so I will do just that before proceeding.

This is the best video I have seen for picking up stitches on a neckband. I love it. I am a self taught knitter (starting at age 41) and a perfectionist, so I really struggle with things like this (and shoulder seaming). I go to a local knitting store once a week for help with my knitting. When I ask the store owner about a different technique for something, such as shoulder seams without the stair step, or left leaning and right leaning decreases, she says "you've been watching youtube videos again haven't you?" I haven't been able to go to her store for 4 weeks because NSW went into total lockdown. I am so glad I found this video. I have been struggling with how to finish off a jumper for my grandson for nearly 4 weeks. The store owner told me how to knit up stitches, but the way she told me, I just didn't get it. I finished my first jumper in May this year and she very kindly sewed it up for me in the end because I was so frustrated I was ready to give up knitting for good, and she also knew how important that jumper was to me, because it was for my grandson. This video will also help me finish off a cardigan I knitted for my grandson almost a year ago.

Thankyou for an amazing lesson….x

Thank you for this!!! Your tutorial is sooo helpful!!!

Again another perfect video. I have just blocked my pieces before I start the neck and this video is great and I am going to follow it step by step to get a perfect neck. You are a genius and so clear everything makes sense. Thank god I found you. 👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you.very.much. well.explained..I really.learned how to pick up.stitches from you only. Again thanks a lot.

Thank you so much for this video! I'm picking up stitches for my first sweater neck, and learned where and how to pick up stitches by watching your video. My stitches for the flat part are totally invisible, like you said they would be, and your advice about calculating the number of stitches around the curve and along the edge of the rows was spot-on. Now I have a beautiful neckline and it's all thanks to you! So, thank you, thank you, thank you! (I'll be back to learn how to pick up the arm stitches next!)

Brilliant work and perfect tutorial much love and many thanks🙏💕

Very clearly explained. Thankyou so much!

Thank you so much! This was very helpful.

Great video

Absolutely brilliant thank you for your teaching. Very well explained.

Thank you for this helpful video it was filmed perfectly and is easy to follow.

I a about to embark on a new pickup and knit project and I am looking all over to see which instructor does it the way I need to get it done and I love your instructions,thanks a lot I am feeling confident right now.

this was so helpful thank you❤️

Fantastic!!! Love your work ❤️❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜

My hero!!

I found this very useful and love how my neck rib rises seemingly seamlessly out from the neckline.

I can't thank you enough for your clear, concise teaching videos. I don't always comment on each one, but I do give the "thumbs up". I always learn so much. I have picked up the bound off edge and wondered why those stitches ended up between the column.

thank you, teach. love to knit .

Thank you so much for showing me how 'not' to have holes around my neck line, and also letting me know how to work out how many stitches to pick up, which may not necessarily be what the patter states. You are awesome.

you make it look so easy. thank you for that

Very nice Suzanne! great!

I want to get into knitting to knit my boyfriend a sweater and socks for Christmas, I've never been so excited to learn about something! Im only 18 but i love crafts, self made clothes, etc. You've made it so easy and wonderful to learn. Btw i take several pages of notes on your instructions and techniques!😊

Subbed and liked. Thank you so much, great tutorial. Very clearly explained too. You have been a great help xx

You are a gift ❤

How nice. Thanks a lot.

Thanks for your explicativos it’s very good🙏

I've learned a lot from you Suzanne. I'm a self-taught knitter and appreciate all your videos!!! Often the patterns don't say anything about the little tricks that you teach to make things perfect!

Thank you I have been doing it wrong and it just did not look right. You made it so very clear to me and again thank you.

Oh my, I have been knitting for many years and never knew that I was picking up between stitches. Thanks for this extremely helpful tutorial.

Thanks for sharing so much detail. Making a sweater for my grandson after many years away from knitting. I appreciate the information!

Even if I don't know English, finally a well explained and easy to understand video thanks from Italy
