Thank you so much! I’ve just finished the toe of my first crab walk sock and it was really good to have these videos to check out for guidance.

Love all the crab videos, I am enchanted by your teaching style and have so noted. Thanx so much for all your offerings on you tube. Because of instructors like you sharing the fine points, knitting more and more has become a refined art form.

This is so awesome! Thank you for this! Just, how would you recommend adding the second color for the very first color change, and how to end it at the last change?

Great tutorial, thank you! What technique do you suggest for reducing the jog?

@thechillydog Жыл бұрын

Surprisingly, this method is pretty good for concealing the jog.

Is there going to be a line visible on the right side of the sock?

@thechillydog 2 жыл бұрын

Nope. It's completely invisible on the right side.

Can these socks be knit on magic loop? Thank you in advance

@thechillydog Жыл бұрын

Yes. I'm not aware of any socks that can't be knit using magic loop.

Lovely technique, but I am watching as you twist and to me it looks clockwise? The yarn twisting over the other yarn is coming left, back and then down and that sweep looks like the way the hands of a clock would go. Can you say more about the counterclockwise perspective here? And what do you do at the start and the end of working with the second color, is there any special way you begin it and complete it?

It was definitely counterclockwise.

@@fayewilliams-smith7815 I will try to watch at slower speed to see if I can pick up how it was done. Result is beautiful!

@andreamiller6200 2 жыл бұрын

Okay, I have watched very closely again and need to ask what the perspective is of the clock. At 4:01 I am watching the white non-working yarn first being taken underneath the pink working yarn, then leftward over it to make the twist. That is the same way a clock's hands move, in a sweep from top right to bottom left, so I would term this "clockwise" - can anyone explain the perspective from which this is counterclockwise?

@@andreamiller6200 did you ever figure it out? I am waiting for her to clarify, I do not do well seeing mechanical images or schematics so I am looking for clarification. I want to purchase this pattern, which I almost never do, but don't want to be uncertain about how to go about it.

@@ooohlaa13 I have not further figured it out, I have not had a reply to my comment so am not sure if she clarified elsewhere. If you are on Ravelry and if she is, perhaps send a private message there? I could do that too, but have not gone to that next step yet.

Hey, anyone use this in a sock? How does it actually feel when wearing? in a shoe?

@thechillydog 2 жыл бұрын

As long as the color changing twist happens at the side of the sock you don't feel much. avoid doing the twist on the bottom of your foot though. That can feel funny.

@ooohlaa13 2 жыл бұрын

I want to purchase this pattern but you have not answered the technical important question about clockwise/counter clockwise. Can you please read the commenters and then clarify. Thanx.

@thechillydog 2 жыл бұрын

This question was addressed in the video starting at about 3:27. It doesn't matter whether you wrap CW or CCW as long as you are consistent and do the same thing through out.
