#12 How to Knit The Loopy Stitch, Knitting For Beginners, Sheila's Just Knitting 

Thank you I mastered the first technique! I was shown last year but put it down.I've some old patterns of loopy cardigans and hats.

Thanks so much, I finally found the way I did it over 50 years ago. Everyone is doing it in the front of the work 👏

I remember making a loopy bonnet for my niece when she was a baby ...... gosh that's over 50 years ago ...... she's married got grown family of her own and grandkids 😯😍

Great video Sheila, i was stuck with an old pattern and the description for making the loop in this way was not helpful. All the others on RU-vid loop from the front. You are a lifesaver 😊😊

Sheila you are a life saver iv had to come back to your video to be able to make some hair for a scarecrow toy I’m making for my grandson , I tried so many times from the pattern ( it used your second method ) and just couldn’t do it but thanks to you iv done it 👏🏻Amanda xx

I’ve made a loopy jacket for my granddaughter. Same way as you except just go twice into the stitch. Instead of waiting it from needle. Been doing these for my children and grandchildren and great niece. Love this stitch.

Brilliant instructions, very clear and precise. Thank you so much.

I was unaware of the loopy stitch. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day. 🙏😇❤️

Thank you so much for teaching me this I needed it for my lions Maine .

All i can say is a massive thankyou. Ive looked for years for a way of learning this loopy pattern. Sin e my daughter was little. You have been the first person to explain and show this so clearly. Since watching your video ive managed to do a bonnet and mittens. Im now knitting a cardigan and bootees. So thankyou xx

Thank you so much for sharing this, I have been wanting to try this for such a long time.

Thank you posting a video about this stitch I have to try it sometime

Thank you so much Sheila, I’ve always struggled with loop stitch but the second way on your tutorial has made it so easy I can’t thank you enough 🧶🧶🧶

Thank you sooo much! I learned to knit as a child on wooden needles! But been 19yrs since i picked up needles & i found 2 loopy cardi/ hat patterns 1 must be from 60's era lol & i was petrified to start it! But thanks to you im ready to smash it! P.s im a geordie too! Yr a star petal! Im owa tha moon xxxx

Thank you so much! I knew how to crochet the loop stitch but I didn't know how to knit it. I like the look of the knitted version better!

Really struggled with this stitch until I watched your clip 😊 thank you

This is the first time I've seen how to knit this stitch. Very neat. :)

I knit my 3 daughters these, & jackets to match, red ones & white, & for lots of kids l love them 🎉

I’m late to this tutorial. This seems a lot better than the way my newer loopy pattern tells you. My pattern has you wrapping the wool round your needle and finger 3 times so makes it very awkward and time consuming to knit and it’s very thick at the end so looks too bulky. I’m going to have a go doing your method cos I love loopy cardigans on baby girls. Thank you for this tutorial. Xxxxxxx

Hi Sheila, thankyou so much for doing the loopy tutorial. My mum taught me many patterns and for some reason after her passing I couldn't remember how yo do this one. I have just vome across your video, and it's jogged my memory! I am so pleased I can do this one again. For hair on toys and santa beards, aswell as on baby cardigans. Thanks again Sheila! Mandy. Xxx😊

Thankyou Sheila.

Thank you so much. Instructions are so clear 🌹❤️

Brilliant, thank you. A friend has asked me to make four loopy cardis and I was sure it would be awkward but not your way 😊

Thankyou so much for the 2nd option which I found so much easier 😊

Loved making my daughters these but they hated them😊

Thank you for showing how to do this

thank you for the video. It really helped with the mane of the lion hat I'm making.

When I watch these advanced stitches, I always wonder who was the first to say, "let's see if this works?" I also can't help but wonder how many times it took the first person to try this to get it right!

Shelia, thank you so much for this easy to follow tutorial. I have wanted to make a jacket using this pattern and always been intimiadated thinking it would be very difficult. Your easy instructions and camera work made this very easy to follow, thank you for creating this. Now to find a pattern!!!

Thanks so much! I just couldn’t get it on my own

Afternoon Sheila Hope lots of knitters are going to try your loopy knitting. How’s your knitting order coming along . You should get plenty done in this dreadful weather. We certainly have had some RAIN. love Sandra x

Thank you so much for your perfect video. My man used to make all the babies one. Now my daughter wants me to make one for her future grandkids. I am not an experienced knitter so your direction was wonderful. I would love to have your pattern if it is available. Freda

So helpful, do you know how to knit the joplin stitch ? I just cant get it .

Thnx dear for video 🌹🙏

What a lovely tutorial, you make it so easy, thank you. I used to do this years ago and forgot how to do it. Thanks again

👍

Thanks I knitted these type of bonnet’s year ago but had forgotten about this stitch. I like the knitting needles you used what are they called please X

Some of my patterns look like yours.I have taken photos of the patterns so it lasts.

At least Sheila you can knit away you will soon have the back finished. Have you anything planned for the rest of the day . Love Sandra x

Hi I feel I must be doing this stitch wrong as it's twisted can you please tell me where I went wrong

Can you please give me a pattern number that does only a few rows of the loopy pattern for a baby girls cardigan. I have watched your videos, which make the stitch look simpler but would like to do only some at the bottom not full cardigan and that is all I can find thank you 😊

It looks harder than it is!
