There are two different ways to knit German short rows and this tutorial explores the differences between the two and when and where to use which version.

Read the full tutorial on my blog: nimble-needles.com/tutorials/...
German short rows are very simple. Basically, it boils down to slipping a stitch purlwise with yarn in front and then pulling (quite strongly) on the working yarn to create a double stitch. Later on, you will decrease the double stitch by knitting it together. So far so good. But when you do this process on the knitside, the result will be a slightly twisted stitch.
To avoid this, you have to slip the stitch knitwise and knit it together through back loop later on. However, while this might create a balanced stitch for the knitside, it might not always be the neatest way.
So, this tutorial explores the differences between the two different ways to knit German short rows and when and how to use them. In the last part, I also show you why and how I knit my German short row heel.

Absolutely the best demo on short rows I’ve ever seen. I’ve been knitting for 53 years, and a few years ago I also adjusted how I do my German short rows to avoid twisted stitches in exactly the same way you have done. I’m an American living in the state of Nevada near Lake Tahoe. Congratulations for having solved a pesky knitting problem and congratulations on making an excellent video!

Thank You, Norman ~ you've done it again! Masterfully explaining and showing us how to do the impossible and make it fun and easy, too! I finished my knee-high 2-at-a-time toe-up boot socks and wow are they warm, they fit perfectly, and I thank you for your tutorials which gave courage, hope and ability. You are a fabulous teacher.

@andreamiller6200 Год назад

Mind blown! I DEFINITELY would love a deeper dive into this going a bit slower in the comparisons to really grapple with it, and of course I will make a swatch to try this out for myself. I happen to be a thrower but that should not change anything. Thank you so much. Nobody before you has presented this, to my knowledge.

@NimbleNeedles Год назад

Glad to hear my videos sitll work for you. But hey, I do watch quite a lot of English videos as well and if you just focus on the stitch and blend out the tensioning fingers, I feel it works very well!

@phoener Год назад

Norman, your technical approach plus your talent for explanation equals fascinating videos. I’ve saved this one for future reference.

@emealinea Год назад

My takeaway is that balanced GSR is suited for flat fabric & twisted GSR is for shaping & firmness. Thank you again! This video is really helpful.

@banjoroo1515 Год назад

Successfully pulled off short rows, with no twisted stitches. Beginner knitter (still working on first project). It is clear you spend so much time with the right lighting, yarn, background and camera settings and editing to get a clear demonstration across. Makes it so much easier to understand. Thanks

@snowpixxie6673 Год назад

I'm addicted to your videos! I learned so much; you explain everything so well, so calmly. Well, surely, I am still a beginner, but I was so proud when I finished my first scarf and my first headband. Yes, they are not perfect, I can see the flaws, but it's fine. I realize that great work comes in time, with experience, with lots of practice. So, just thank you, Norman. Vielen Dank! :-)

@NimbleNeedles Год назад

that's the perfect attitude. You can't expect the Mona Lisa if you barely did your first stroke. But with patience and practise, you will eventually get there!

@StarfireReborn Год назад

Let Me Tell You From Years Of Perfectionist Torment... You're The Only One Who Notices The Flaws. Even Other Knitters Don't Tend To "Knitpick" Your Items 😅 But Just Like Our Bodies, We See A Supernaturally Enlarged Problem Where Only A Triviality Exists. Keep On, You'll Do Great Things.

@NimbleNeedles Год назад

@@StarfireReborn let me tune in on this and strongly disagree here. I hear this theme so often and it can be very hurtful. Not all brains work the same. Some see the large picture, others focus on the details (especially ppl on the autism spectrum, etc). And for these, these flaws can be a big problem and it's very important to recognize them and not tell them they don't exist or it's fine. It often is not and it's nothing you can (or should) fix with therapy or nice words. I know, you mean well and I thank you for this. But do be careful with that and word in a way it's inclusive.

@emilyackertrutten268 23 дня назад

I found this same thing when I was knitting a cardigan several years ago!! I was doing short rows in pattern, though, so I thought it was just the fact that I was doing seed stitch, and so had purl and knit stitches on both back and front. I ended up purling some stitches through the back loop (tricky but doable), knitting some through the back loop and knitting / purling the normal way some stitches to get them to come out untwisted, depending on what the underlying stitch was (ie. knit or purl). I don't remember pulling stitches to the front, but it all did work out. German short rows were the only short row method I could find that really worked for non-stockinette fabric.

@AgelessLady Год назад

This video is exactly what I need to know. You are a wo nderful instructor. I was doing the short rows but didn’t realize I neglected to do the double stitches. Fortunately I can rip out the 12 rows that are wrong. I made the mistake of not reading the pattern before beginning my project.

@janicewood5561 Год назад

I had just ripped back to the start of my short rows - every time I looked at my work the wonky stitches drove me nuts and I ripped back. Then I found this channel/video. I can barely tell where my knit side rows are. I can still see a slight difference on my purl rows but they are so much better. Thank you for this video tutorial - thank you!

@CaroAtCarosReads Год назад

Very interesting. Might have to watch a few times to get my head round this one but very happy to do that. It would be interesting to have a video about when to use different types of short rows and the difference in appearance on the finished item. I tend to do German or wrap and turn short rows but am never sure what gives the neatest/smoothest looking finish.

@NimbleNeedles Год назад

well, i'll see what I can do. But the thing is, and I hope the last section of this video prooved that, it depends a bit on how close you space them. So one method might look nice for a heel but not all that nice for a shawl, etc. So, i'm saying: don't think of it as THE neatest...rather neatest in this case for you :)

@AnneluvsKatz Год назад

I’ve only done wrap and turn short rows so far, so this scrambled my brain a bit… hoping it’ll make sense in time…

I watched so many RU-vid tutorials, googled, read forums about what I might be doing wrong but still couldn’t make mine appear as invisible as other people’s.

@Ant-riksh 2 месяца назад

11:30 Timestamp for balanced stitches I found that it is more about knits and purls than right or wrong side. I am making a top that has both knits and purls in a row so I had to use both methods on both sides. I found that after turning the work, if the stitch that is to be the double stitch is a knit (on that side), slip knitwise, and if it is purl, slip purlwise. Use the appropriate decrease when resolving them. This is what gave me the best results. Thanks for the video Norman! All of your videos are brilliant but this one especially was so useful and kind of revolutionary to be honest 😂

@NimbleNeedles 2 месяца назад

yes, that is another factor I didn't talk about in this video. But great you were able to figure it out!

@patricialcarpenter4090 Год назад

Thank you, again. I’ve never understood German short rows. Others have done tutorials, but your explanation, and showing this stitch both ways really makes sense. And… you chose larger yarn in colors that really show up the v’s and legs of the stitches. I think I could pull up one of the sock patterns I want to try, and knit a pair of socks for Christmas! Thank you, Norman.

@NimbleNeedles Год назад

I will definitely find time to swatch the two options the next time I make a garment that calls for GSRs. Thank you!
