I don't know if I've ever seen a more clear, direct video on knitting instruction. Thank you!

@CandyDae Год назад

I love this series. I have the power!

@x1435 Год назад

I love these more technical "how to make knitting work for you" type videos. It really takes my knitting, and my overall understanding, to the next level! Thanks for updating the thumbnail color too!! Hope you are staying warm this Thanksgiving.

@Knitty_Mel Год назад

I love every video you put out. Why do I feel more confident and powerful in making knitty decisions after watching you? Because you rock!!! 👏👏👏 thanks so much! Saving this one!

@janetsears6673 Год назад

Happy Thanksgiving! A third option for the stitch pattern you have chosen would be to elongate or shorten it in the middle of every repeat to fit the row count. Ahhh, the marvels of knitting.

@gailcolvin1640 Год назад

My thought, too!

@Eligosol Год назад

Thank you, Roxanne. Found some inspiration for Christmas hats.😊

@beth12svist Год назад

This is perfect for recreating a hat my grandma made me years ago that got eaten by moths... she did not remember anymore which pattern she used, if any, so I have set myself the challenge of doing it myself and writing it up...

@nicolelafontaine1720 Год назад

Roxanne, this technique Tuesday is a real jewel. Thanks so much for doing all the math for us, I will have fun knitting traveling twisted stitches hat from now on.

@RoxanneRichardson Год назад

I didn't mention this in the video, but for my traveling twisted sts hat, I used ktbl and k2togtbl for the crown of the pink hat, since the rest of the knits in the hat were ktbl.

@nicolelafontaine1720 Год назад

@@RoxanneRichardson Yes that is a great idea ! Will you publish the pattern ?

@paulagrnsy Год назад

As you were talking about adapting the stitch pattern, I flashed to written music with repeats and codas.

Thank for sharing. I am new to knitting and I am always glad to learn new things.

You have perfect timing. I am working on two hats with modifications. Thank you this informative video.

@connieorenstein2965 Год назад

Very helpful, thank you! Looking forward to the rest of this series. I often have trouble getting hats to fit the way I like - I don't like slouchy hats - and I think this simple method would work for me. Looking forward to trying it soon.

@glynismarsh4532 Год назад

Thank you for taking the mystery out of hat crowns. I never understood how to improvise a crown on a hat before. This gives me the freedom to make up my own hats. I’ll be interested in your other types of hat crowns as well.

I cant believe how much I learn from your channel. I never had confidence in counting rows. You are so clear. Thank you. Also your video on RU-vid has me watching ads for at least 30 secs. Hopefully a small way to pay you back.

@mariehansen2534 Год назад

Hello there, you have been very busy and I'm pleased that you have shown me your recipe for these. My Brother lives in Central Otago and they have some pretty epic frosts and snowfalls. He works on a Cherry Orchard and goes through lots of hats which his elder sister, me, knits. This looks to be an interesting way to work these. Happy Thanksgiving, Safe travel and take care.

Very interesting (and helpful) video. I had to laugh at myself while watching this video - I was obviously paying more attention to what you were saying than to my knitting, as I suddenly found myself doing a k2tog halfway up the sole of my sock!!

@wandapeitz1544 Год назад

Thank you so much for your videos. I’m always learning. Usually I am running two weeks behind in watching, and I just watched the video from two weeks ago where you asked for suggestions on future videos. I am completing an intarsia sweater for my great grandson called the Digger. My outcome is okay, but I know I can do better. I was talking to some fellow knitters and a few of us had some same questions concerning intarsia. This sweater is a good example. So I thought I would throw this out and see if you would consider talking about this topic. Thanks again for all of your Tips and Techniques.

@RoxanneRichardson Год назад

I have three videos relating to intarsia that you can find in my Color Work playlist: ru-vid.com/group/PL1AZxTfSCe2ciu_XbYOVClammwvqVzIiy

@pennydonato8072 Год назад

Amazing! I love these series. I'm learning so much. I also have a request when you have time. I've noticed there are very few videos on how to knitchener stitch in color patterns. Maybe it would be a good subject to dive into. I think once you understand how to kitchener st two pieces of fabric together it may be easy enogu, but you explain things so well...For instance: I'm knitting a toddler sweather but I didn't like the middle parte once blocked. So I cut it off instead of ripping the whole thing out. Now I'm reknitting the fair isle portion and I then will sew the pieces together. Lesson learned: blocking is not magic.

@katedimmick7272 28 дней назад

Hi Roxanne thank you for your easy to follow instructions for everything that you do. I have a question: would you be willing to do a video showing some of the books on you shelf about knitting. Other designers do it but they usually are 'plugging' a new book thats just out. I know that you would not do that. I have tried reading the spines of your books, but cant really see them. I'm keen to know which ones you have found useful and even though you may not be able to get them new, thats ok.

@RoxanneRichardson 27 дней назад

I did a series of Casual Friday segments showing the books in my library a number of years ago. I believe it was in the fall of season 2. So if you look at the videos starting around episode 40 or 42 of Season 2, you'll find a segment every week for about 6 or 7 weeks. The library has grown since then, but it'll give you a taste.

@scotilla 4 месяца назад

Thank you, Roxanne! This is very helpful and clearly illustrated. One question: when you have few stitches left after all the decreases, do you have to switch to double-pointed needles?

@shirleemohiuddin7305 Год назад

Excellent video. This is SO perfect for the upcoming long holiday weekend with some time for playing with yarn and knitting! I will share the same sentiment that others have already expressed, thanks for giving us the power! Really looking forward to this series. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family Roxanne.

@Sequoya Год назад

Great episode! This is so helpful.

@kj-sf4md Год назад

Question, when working with bulky or super bulky yarns, are there better suited cast ons, how best to manage the yarn, I the process of just knitting, wrapping the needle, seem to add twist that is more noticeable. I like the look of a chunky knit, and its quick, especially for gifts. But instead of easier, it seem yarn management is more challenging. Am i nuts? Too picky? There must be some secret tip or technique.

@annesfeltedfriends Год назад

Very helpful. Question : if I am knitting very large to felt the hat after, can I still use this patter of decreases. My pattern using a bulky wool calls for multiple plain rounds between decreases.

@RoxanneRichardson Год назад

Your hat may have a longer, more fitted method of shaping the crown, which will remain smooth when felted. This method is quite gathered, and may not be a great option for felting. Only way to know for sure would be to try it and see what happens.

@joanmachado9063 Год назад

Great video thank you 😊

@fatimaal-zuhairi7373 Год назад

Would please help me how can I decrease when the hat has pattern such as those what you demonstrated I can’t decrease every 10 stitches or knit 2 and so on Please help me Thanks so much for your useful explanation which makes it easy and interesting Best regards Fatima

@RoxanneRichardson Год назад

Regardless of the stitch pattern you are using, once it's time to start the crown, you stop working the stitch pattern you have been using, and instead work the instructions exactly as I explained, using only knits and k2togs.
