I know this video is almost six years old but we are still discovering and learning from you, Suzanne. I appreciate your skill and clarity of explanation. It's like having a grandmother-wise knitter around the corner! Many thanks.

Big thank you for lovely clear shots and description. I'm a thrower, and have always struggled with using two or more colours. I'm flying along now using both hands! I've been knitting almost 50 years, so just shows you are never too old to learn a new trick. 😀

Its always great to learn different ways of knitting. 💕💖

Thank you so much for sharing your expertise! Your voice is so calm, it projects a “you can do it” feeling. I especially appreciated the segment about tension in this video.

I like to watch several different videos to learn a new technique and always end up coming back to yours. They are the best. You take your time and don't rush through the demo. Thank You for your expertise.

I absolutely LOVE watching these videos! It’s nice to have the expertise of someone with so much experience (who’s probably made every mistake I’ll run into myself), but with options!! Instead of watching 20 different videos, I can see many ways to do something, the pros/cons, and results, and decide for myself which fits MY style best. Plus...I like the “straight to the point” clips. I really dislike the hosts that just LOOOOVE to see themselves on camera.

Thanks for the clearest most helpful video on this subject!

This was so helpful! I appreciate your calm manner as well as the helpful tips!

Thank you. I'm not even close to knitting stranded, but I learned so much just by watching this video. Now, I won't be as afraid of attempting multiple colors, when I reach that level.

Thanks for this lovely video

Amazing technique using both Throwing and Picking. Really enjoy your teaching and close up video

You create such clear and helpful videos Suzanne - thank you!

Naturally, when I want to learn how to do stranded knitting, the BEST video on it is from Susanne.

Liking (as always) and sharing with a friend who is new to colourwork. Thanks Suzanne!

Thanks so much. Great tutorial, so useful. Never could get the fingering right to hold two colors. Now I totally get it. ❤Thank you!

Excellent. I'm learning. Your tips are really a blessing. Thank you.

Excellent video! Thank you for this incredibly clarifying demonstration.

Your videos are great to watch...I learn so much! Thank you a million times!

Beautiful demo. Thank you, Suzanne.

I love your your style of teaching. You don’t rush and are very easy to understand. Thank you!

Meticulous and comprehensive! With clarity and precise instruction she covered every stitch, method and detail required to create this intricate design. Anyone listening/learning from her, would be able to reproduce a project as beautiful as the one she demonstrated for us. What an Amazing teacher! Thankyou!

Your videos are so helpful. Such clear descriptions and so easy to see what's going on in the videos. Thank you for these.

I found this video so helpful, informative, very well communicated and demonstrated on various ways to hold the two coloured yarns when working with more than one in stranded knitting. I’m always interested in building up skill set in knitting. Thank you.

This was a really useful demo, thanks for showing a comparison of all the different ways to hold the yarn :)

Hello Suzanne I just wanted to say thank you for your clear and precise instructions. I really enjoy your video's you give us many different way of being able to achieve a pattern, the way its meant to look. I am so grateful to be able to watch and learn even after all these years, you have shown me so many things I didn't know but wished I had someone to show me when I was young. So a heartful thank you again.🌹

Thank u, thank u for showing this video, I’m mostly continental and the dual throw/pick method makes sense to me!

I like the pace of instruction and the optional techniques of applying the stranded knitting method. Thanks!

Thanks for all you do it is very much appreciated

Thank you for this superclear video! I get it now and I'm confident enough to start my first Fair Isle socks. Thanks so much!!

Easily the best video on this technique. Thank you so much!

Im so glad I found your tutorials! You explain things so clearly, and the photography is excellent. I'm looking forward to improving my pretty basic understanding with your videos. Thanks!

Learned how to knit from watching your videos. So detailed. Thank you!

Thank you Suzanne, I love your videos, your explanations are very clear and you make it look possible, also for me! I'm a very beginning knitter, and you have shown me how to do it and made it possible for me to turn out acceptable looking garments that I've been proud to have made. Again, thank you so much!

Great Job! Wonderfully explained! Loved it!

I am just learning this technique.You are a very good teacher.I appreciate what you are doing.Thank you

Thank you for your video - I really appreciated the way you slowed down so that we could see each different method of holding the yarn.

Thank you Suzanne. I’m a new knitter who has been trying for years to learn. I crochet. If I hadn’t have found your channel I’m not sure I would have learned. You’re very clear and easy to follow and I love to watch you knit. Thanks to you I am now a knitter.

Thanks, great instruction and visuals. I especially appreciate the concise language you use and the demonstration of typical problems, like getting the floats too tight. 💪💪

Je découvre votre chaîne... Merci, de France, pour ce partage si bien expliqué. Bien sûr, je lis la traduction, mais surtout, je regarde les "images", un peu comme les enfants !!! Je m'abonne, je vais prendre le temps de visionner toutes vos vidéos. Encore merci

Hi Suzanne, I just started watching your channel. I am new to colour work and can really appreciate the hands on method of knitting tutorials. It makes learning so much easier. Cant wait to watch all your tutorials on the different methods and techniques. Thank you so much. I love your channel. 🙃

That is such a pretty pattern. I'm just learning. Gotta walk before I fly...

I knit for many years, learned it at school but just the basics, so I figured it out for my self f.e. how to knit with 2 colors. Nowadays I search in your videos first before I start a new item because you make knitting so much easier and neater.

Thank you, you explain this technique so well, I'm going to practice and practice this method.

I absolutely love your videos!! Thank you for sharing!!!!!!!!

Thank you for such a great video.

Thank you for such great techniques. Love your videos ❤️

I really like your tutorials. Very educational.

This video was very helpful. Clear and detailed. Thank you.

Thank you so much for sharing your expertise. I taught myself color work and never thought too much about how to hold my yarn til now. I just learned enough to try a new method that is more efficient and consistent> Thanks!!!!

Great video! It was especially helpful to see all the different ways to hold the yarn. The pace was perfect - not too fast or too slow. Thank you very much. I have subscribed and will be watching more of your videos.

This video has been so helpful for figuring out how to work with two yarns!! Thank you very much!

This was really useful. Thanks for making the video.

Thanks for your clear and very helpful tips and tutorial!

Thank you for your wonderful videos!

Thank you. Love your method of instruction

You need an "I love it!" button. Thank you!

Great tips! I learned using both hands and had not seen both yarns in either right or left hand before. I see why I was taught to use both hands and I am a continental knitter, so I found it much easier. Thank you.

I like the two colors you chose for your tutorial and I am now an avid fan of stranded knitting. I'm practicing techniques for baby hat donations.

Wonderful clear instruction. THANKYOU

Thank you so much. 30+ years a knitter and I still needed to know how others do it!

Wonderful Video!! Thanks so much!

I’m gonna give this a go thank u for the video 😊

I’m so glad I watched this video. I watched your other one about knitting on the tips of your needles and I was trying to apply that to 2-color knitting on my sock. It got so bunched up and tight and I could barely knit. I almost gave up until I saw this video and realized what I was doing wrong. Thank you from a new knitter! I barely know what I’m doing half the time!😘

👏🏻👏🏻🎉👏🏻🎉👏🏻🎉👏🏻👏🏻✨🌟⭐️🌟✨❤️😃❤️👍🏻👍🏻🎉💐🎉💐🎉💐💐 Thank you so much! Absolutely awesome video!!

Thank you for this clear video. I have only just seen the picking style of knitting in a polish friend who knits. It looks like this two handed technique will revolutionise my fairisle knitting. I even think that being left handed will help with learning a new style for my left hand. I can't wait to try this out on my next project.

Thanks! Your video helped to solve the mystery of how to do this!

You remain one of the best knitting teachers on this site. I've learned so much from you over the years. Thank you for finally showing a technique for the lefties out here! I'm a "picker," as it turns out. I'd like to learn true continental, but I'm just not that coordinated, lol.

I've never done stranded knitting because I didn't know how to deal with the yarns. I really enjoyed how you demonstrated the different methods. I'm keeping your demo in my library, you do a wonderful job of explaining your work. I give you an A+ :)

As a "picker" I really appreciate this video which shows the difference and helps me approach two handed knitting for my first "fair isle kep"....

Excellent video. Learned so much💖

Excellent video! So clear!

Suzanne, thank you for making this video! It is very helpful. I am new to knitting, I have crocheted for 40+ years and have always wanted to learn to knit. I started knitting about a month ago, I'm finishing a hat and a dishcloth. I am still trying to find the most comfortable way to hold the yarn while knitting, this video is great for showing different ways to do that. You make it look so easy!

Love this can't wait to try it.

Thank You just doesn't seem to be enough to really to express my gratitude. I am a new new knitter, and being my lifelong over achiever self, I bought a pattern that to me means I will have accomplished what I set out to do, in finally learning to knit. At 40 something, I had tried and failed to learn to knit a half dozen times. I tried to convince myself that crocheting was enough over the last three decades, but socks have been a disappointment all that time. Now with KZfaq I had finally done it I knitted socks. Of course they are basic with the only color changes at the heels and toes. Now I thought that color work pattern was obtainable. Nope. But the pattern was similar enough to what you were doing here, that I finally got it. Knitting this type of socks was actually No. 3 on my bucket list and now thanks to you I've been able to mark it off my list. Like I said, Thank You just doesn't seem to be enough.

I love,❣️love your instructional videos

Thank you so much for this video. I am new to stranded knitting and this is very helpful. My tension has been much too tight in carrying the floats and I look forward to watching your videos on how to carry the floats for better tension.

Hi, Suzanne! Thank you so much for this video! I made a couple of pairs of fingerless gloves using stranded knitting using two circulars, and my biggest problems were a fold where each needle ended, and tangled yarn. Using the methods you've shown here, I feel confident that both these problems will be solved. I can't wait to get out my yarn and try them! Again - thank you!

Thanks for such a thorough video, very clear and concise! I'm an experienced Continental knitter and have just found you while making my second fair isle Mini Mochi hat by Sandy Rosner to get some tips on how to hold the second yarn and maybe use both hands. I tried your two-handed method and WOW, corrugated ribbing is so much faster now. Thank you! Thank you!

Oh my goodness, I am a thrower and how you explained that I will try. I know i can do that and I love that way 2 colours for wrist on mitts. Thank you.

Thank you, best explanation ever.

thank you so very much ..this is so appreciated Anne Forster Anne Forster 3 years agoha

I think it is a very nice decorative white "blip" as you call it at 8:22 . Starting the ribbing with a knitted row doesn't look so fancy. Of course there's no need to be ALWAYS fancy. Thanks for these slow paced, in depth tutorials, I subscribed and will watch them all.

Great video, thank you!

Thank you Suzanne

excellent instruction! thanks 🙂

just found you this was my very first time watching you i loved this podcast and subscribed and hit like

Thank you for your clear instructions Learning so much from seeing you it

Thanks, Merry Christmas🎄

This is very helpful! Thanks!

thank you so so much Suzanne, that's really helpful.

I always wondered what the advantage is of using 2 circulars rather than 1 long circular. My knitting is so much better because of you. Dianne

Just working on my first stranded knitting project, a hat using J&S jumper weight shetland, a very sticky yarn. I started out holding both yarns in my left hand which I like, but so difficult to keep the yarn flowing because of its sticky nature. Your video really helped me. I'm going to try to use both hands. starting today, I thought holding the yarns in both hands would be too difficult, but you explained it so well that I can do it. Also, I appreciated the section about keeping proper tension/looseness between stitches (by working on the barrel and not the tip of the needle) to have sufficient float behind them.Thank you, thank you. Have subscribed to your channel

Practice is right! I like to put one in each hand but I reverse the knit and purl hands since purling english is so much easier for my and I can knit from the left hand all day! Your work is perfection.

Hi Suzanne, thank you for such an educational video 😁 I've only ever attempted fair isle knitting once in my many years of knitting. I was always fearful of getting it wrong and that pretty much happened on my first project which was a hat in the round. I couldn't adequately tension the strands at the back, I had slack in some areas and tightness in others 🤷‍♀️ Your video has given me some hope that I can 'go forth and attempt' one more time with my new found techniques courtesy of yourself. Thanks again for teaching 🤗

Great tutorial, thanks

Oldie but goldie!

i´m a portuguese style knitter, but i always learn something looking other's method.thank you for sharing your knowledge.kisses from Portugal !
