This video was super helpful and saved a project that I was almost finished with and then realized I had messed up an entire row a few rows before and it was throwing the design off. This was so much easier to do/understand than other methods I looked up. Project is now back on track and looking perfect, and I didn’t lose a single stitch!

This just helped me immensely! I was ready to cry bc i finally got on in my first project and noticed a mistake, then messed up trying to fix the mistake-but this saved me! Thank you so much!!

Thank you for this. I am experimenting with a few options on the bottom of a sweater and had to unravel 10 rows of 237 stitches. Small stitches🙄. I was at my wit's end trying to see each stitch on the right side and thought "there must be an easier way". Turns out your way is the easier way! Thanks again😊

Omg I’m so subscribing to your channel! I was about to quit knitting lol (I crochet but am tryna pick up on knitting) this saved me!

BIG help. Thank you. I had forgotten that I'm "purl-challenged". You've swooped down to rescue, & to remind me that I need to practice this until I'm not challenged any more. Thanks, again. :)

I come back to this video for a reminder, maybe too often. It's good practice! It's a great trick.

So helpful! Thank you! You're a good teacher 🙂

This was so helpful, it saved me when I had to frog back a couple of rows in garter stitch. Thank you!

Hello! This was lovely and helpful, I'm a beginner who's knitting a garter scarf and I was very scared that I'd mess it up and have to start from the beginning. The other videos I found focused on the stockinette stitch and this is the first one I've seen that handles the garter side. So thank you!

You’re my savior thank you so much ❤😂

Great little technique love your videos so clear and easy to follow.

Thank you so much for this video.

Excellent video! Thank you so much...

Thank you! The first method you showed just saved my 10 rows from being done hat when I dropped a stitch 5 rows. Next time when I get to the ribbing I’ll slow down while purling til I get used to it again after knitting 60 rows.

Thank you this was such a big help!

Very good video. Liked all the detail step by step.

A great tip! Many times I've had to undo and I've undone rows very slow ways. It's a GREAT help!! 👍❣👕😁

Thank you so much for this video! I had to undo part of the raglan on the top of my very first knit sweater and thanks to you it worked perfectly! Not a single stitch dropped. Thank you again😊

You so good on what you do.I love your videos 😊

You are a genius! I do much better using the purl bumps when making a reactive lifeline. Thank you so much!

Such an eye opening technique! Thank you

This is a terrific instructional video on "how to" in unraveling to a knitting mistake. I'm guilty of not using 'life lines', so this method will be great next time I find that a repair needs to be made several rows up in my knitting. Thanks!

Thank you Very much for this trick!! I've never seen this before. A tremendous tool in my toolbox. Warmly, Anne

This is a fantastic tutorial. Thank you!

If anyone else also goes from right to left but goes from bottom up through the purl - top loops, be sure to untwist your stitches before continuing your work, i wondered why the loops were so hard to put my needle into.. haha

Wow -pretty amazing I'm too new, looks scary but, I will practice this for sure!! Thank you

So helpful, thank you so much 🤗

Thanks for sharing this great trick.

Lifesaver! Thank you :-)

Life saver!

I have used the technique of picking up stitches from the front with a fine needle as I often knit either lace or socks. But I’ve never done that from the backside. That’s it a good idea. I’ve also done a technique when I knitted cables and crossed the cable wrong, to release just the stitches in that cable and use DPNs to knit just that section again. It works but is much harder in some knitting techniques such as a pattern having yarn-overs. One of the knitting teachers I also follow showed the technique which I used for that, but any experienced knitter could figure that out. It can work in lace if the section is surrounded by stockinette. When it is an larger lace pattern, I’d insert a lifeline and redo that way. With lace shawls being huge, making corrections and how you choose to do them, means finishing the project vs. “it has become a nightmare” and you either rip it out or it goes in a box you hope to only find when you have an epiphany of what to do. All knitting problems have a solution, some require a rethink of how to accomplish and what sort of investment needs to be made in stitch markers to prevent the issue. Prevention is the best cure. We often knit and are listening to something and lose our place in a pattern, that is my issue. So I am now counting in my head as some patterns do not look like anything until you have row upon row. Then you can look and think what it is going to look like and it becomes easier.

GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for saving my life lol 👍🏻

Oh MARYNA! I have been trying to make the exact sweater you are wearing!! But first....yours are my go-to videos on knitting so thanks! Now is there anyway I can get/purchase the pattern of your sweater here?!? 🙋🏻‍♀️🙏

Thank you. Now I will not be lazy and fix my mistake. I am working with alpaca fiber so unraveling will be a challenge. Fingers crossed. Would you do any changes if unraveling ribbing?

Hi Maryna! Thanks for the tip. I am reworking an old project that I had to put down several years ago because I just couldn’t follow the chart accurately. I have two large butterflies of the wool yarn I had to unknit from the project. It looks sort of wavy in a loose sort of way. Can I re-use this yarn as I continue trying to complete this project, which is garter stitch throughout? Do I need to “relax” it in water first? Thanks again. 😊

That's so helpful, thank you. I need to frog back, but have knit and purl in the same row. Can I use both the techniques on the same side of the fabric? Will that work? TIA.

Does this work for knitting in the round? I made a beanie and the decrease is too tight. It was a very intricate color work pattern so I’m hoping I can somehow just frog the decreased section and not have to start all over. Thank you!

maybe its because i was knitting in the round but this did not work for me and led to a lot of frustration :(

What if it's rib? Kit and purl?

i've done 29 rows for nothing! grrr, how foolish am i??? such a silly move, i was copying instructions for the back, as told to by the pattern and went beyond the asterix by mistake, grrrr, my experiences with frogging in the past have only made things much worse :( to the point i've had to abandon the whole project and i'm almost done, only the neck border to do infuriating! *sad face* feelsbadman
