I have just been thinking about doing this when your video popped up. When I knit in the round I usually use two pairs of circular needles so I can see how easy it would be to do the helix stripes. It will be great for socks, especially as I have lots of leftover bits of sock yarn. Thank you for your video.

Hi. What about binding in helical striping?
@BrooklynTweed_Official17 күн бұрын
Great question! For a smooth bind off, we recommend ending your stripes and transitioning back to a single color before binding off -simply stop working the “stripe” color and overtake the join point with your main color, then continue knitting as usual.

If you’re using this decrease when working flat, do you follow this dec pattern on the wrong side too? Or just knit and purl as they are for the wrong side?
@BrooklynTweed_Official23 күн бұрын
Hello! You'd generally be working decreases on just one side of your work, with some rows in your ribbing pattern in between, so for example if you worked your decreases on a right side row, you'd knit your knits and purl your purls on the following wrong side row. Happy knitting!

Is it possible to use interchangeable needles to weave in a lifeline if I am using Magic Loop? I tried it but something went horribly wrong!
@BrooklynTweed_Official29 күн бұрын
Hello! Are you trying to carry along the lifeline with your needles as you knit (proactive lifeline)? You should be able to do this with magic loop, making sure that your lifeline is staying with your needle cable as it passes through all the stitches in your round (might have to do a little detangling at your loop areas). Let us know how it goes!

Spending a quiet 2024 Memorial Day weekend devoted to conquering stranded colorwork. I watched dozens of KZfaq videos that left me more confused and frustrated. Finally I found this perfect one from Brooklyn Tweed and am on my way knitting a hat in stranded colorwork. I am designing my own pattern as I go along - nothing requiring me to catch floats. I am a thrower, so I appreciate your segment here on working the pattern with both colors held in the right hand. Thank you for this highly professional tutorial.

I've been knitting well over forty years and I feel it is time for me to tackle colour work. It took me over thirty five to knit socks and now it's a rare occasion for me not to have a pair on the go. So your video was important knowledge for me to know and understand. I've heard of 'catching your strand'. I think this is when you have a long stretch of one colour so you catch the second colour to see the strand being too long?? Hopefully you have done a video on this. Thank you. xxJane 🐑🌼

The stitch definition is surprisingly good in the darker teal color. Is that because of some yarn characteristic?
@BrooklynTweed_OfficialАй бұрын
It is! Arbor is made from Targhee wool from Montana & South Dakota - this finewool breed grows thick, plush fleeces with exceptionally elastic fiber, well suited for smooth worsted-style spinning. Combined with a round, springy 3-ply construction, the result is a yarn that's lively on the needles with fantastic stitch definition. :)
