Wow, I have been knitting with that pattern for scarves since 2006. If you make a Dr. Who scarf you will use that pattern method throughout that very lengthy scarf. I did a green and white one about 12 yrs ago representing a school's colors. I love the blue you are using. Using a real contrasting yarn for your waste yarn will help eliminate missing a stitch when casting off--using a black, dark blue, brown, red, dark green, etc will give you the contrast needed to see all of your white stitches in the future.
I’ve made a Doctor Who scarf before. I found a pattern on Pinterest and just modified it. It was maybe 8 or 9ft long LOL. Yea I should’ve used a different color for the waste yarn for this, I didn’t realize until later 😂😂😂
I love knitting and you are the best knitter I ever seen all of my things they all have holes but I did my first one without any holes today but a beanie
Neither my Addi nor my Sentro likes RHSS yarn or most 4 weight yarn. I bought so much yarn in the States and now I am busy hand knitting and crocheting baby blankets for children in Romania reducingbmy stash. 3 weight no problem.
Sorry, but scrap yarn is not in my vocabulary because it's too much work, but you are a good teacher who explains and shows your knitting teaching very well.
I really enjoyed your video and you explained the process so well. I am curious about the stitch you adjusted at the beginning. I couldn't really see what slipped. Also can you use your waste yarn again? One last question, how many cakes did you end up using for that length. My daughter and her family recently moved to Alaska, so 3 small grandsons will need more than 1 scarf lol.
you can use waste yarn again, I have a little bit of scrap yarn saved for this purpose. You can also make a scarf with a pom pom instead of the flat edge method. The cakes I use typically equals to one full skein of Big Twist Value yarn but it also depends on how often you switch colors and it depends on how long you want your scarf.
Heyy it’s my first time making a scarf and I’m planning to gift it, so gotta do a good job there. How long is the yarn you’re using? Or generally what length would you recommend me to buy? How many rows would a 120 m long yarn make?
So I typically use Big Twist or Red Heart Super Saver. I honestly don’t read the labels of how much the length is per skein. I always say grab more then what you need
@@JenneticCraftsMerci bien mais si tu pouvais me donner le nombre de rang pour les différents changements de couleurs pour rendre mon travail autant joli que le tien. Merci en attendant la réponse sur le bleu mélangé au blanc.
I have a question I tried using a certain type of yarn I ended up having to make sure every time the yarn wouldn’t end up in the back it became too much work is it because the yarn wasn’t soft enough
New subscriber here, this is the first time I've ever seen a video about knitting with or without a machine. I ve seen a scarf and really wanted to make one in my football teams colours... Eventually I ended up here. A quick research has indicated that these machines come in certain numbers such as 30 40 48....etc This means that more stitches the wider the scarf right? I heard the one you're using here is a 48 needles yes? Could you please give an estimate of how wide is the 30 the 40 and the 48? I m trying to understand how wide is the scarf you made here cause it really fits my requirements. It looks like 20~25cm or about 10inches. Could you please tell me the 30 40 needle machine what width they knit at? And a final question.... Do you know if these machines or better yet the one you're using here can knit a tighter knit? More tight closer compact threading knitting in a way? Do they have some sort of special setting where you can adjust things and come up with a tighter result? Thank you in advance and please forgive me, I m a man and this subject is completely unfamiliar to me. Also English is not my mother tongue so I hope you make sense of what I am asking. I greets from Greece. Amazing video and great result. You are explaining everything so nicely.
Hi!! I only make my scarves using a 48 pin machine. The more rows you do the longer the scarf. I typically make mine about 7ft long. In terms of width, it is 6.5 inches. If you are using the 48 pin machine, there are tension settings with three holes, i put my yarn in the middle one. If you want a looser fit, go with the last one. I hope i answered all of your questions and thank you for watching
