Thank you Norman! This was my first knitting project. I just wanted to learn something new without spending a lot of money so I went to Goodwill and purchased some cheap horrible yarn and the only knitting needles in the Goodwill store. Your project took 3.5 hours for you with your yarn, and 3 weeks for me with my crappy yarn! But I did it! It’s a horrendous color and scratchy to boot, but it’s finished and I’m strangely proud of the ugly thing. Thank you so much for the excellent lesson and my first adventure in knitting. Next time I will buy yarn I actually like.
heh! Well do keep it as a memory, for sure! Because now that you know how things work, you can invest ins ome proper needles and some proper yarn and produce somethin you can also wear with pride!
Norman, you are the best! I have just started knitting and I absolutely love your videos. You explain everything so well and your whole approach is honestly so calming. Keep up the awesome work and thank you!
Thank you thank you 🙏 Norman Love the scarf, very happy with it. Loved joining the two yarns, so excited, it works! This is my third project and learnt lots, the bigger wool made it easier to see how stitches form and finishing off made more sense as I can clearly see how to weave in between for a seamless finish 🙏✨😊💜
Hi! Very well explained, I was able to understand better you than when I see knitting videos in my own language! 🤣 Thank you so much and regards from México
ehyo! just wanted to thank you for this scarf tutorial, my aunt gave me her knitting set and i couldn't figure out how to use it, tried so many video tutorials but were too difficult to follow and to see the process. Thank you very much! I'm going to subscribe even tho i don't know when I will be able to knit something again lol, amazing tutorial seriously ✨
Praise you! This technique is a bit harder for my hands to get. It's slow going but my gosh, my stitches are way more consistent and nicer looking than the other tutorials that I tried to follow.
Hi Norman, I am a new beginner here. I have a question.. once you make your first "cast on" stitch are the "cast on" stitches that follow using the yarn from the ball or the yarn from the tail? I have watched the video many times...I just can't tell. Thank You so much in advance for your help with my question and for your videos. I am looking forward to being able to knit away! Have a wonderful day.
My first project after 2 basic clothes, was a scarf with curly fluffy yarn 🙈 it hide mistakes well, but I got told later that it is the hardest yarn to use. I spent 10 months 🙈
hi Norman, I wanted to make scarves for family and friends for Christmas and didn't check the yd amount but have used Malabrigo Rasta yarn before so just purchase some only to discover they are only 90yds (82M) . I am making the first of 10 scatrves now and hope it won't be too short. What do you think?
Oh no! sorry. I have subtitle for allmost all my videos and the pattern is available on my blog! And also, always read a pattern all the way to the end before you start :P
Norman, sorry I couldn't find a better place to ask this question, but here it is: When I knit, my knitted stitches don't look like even "V"s. One 'leg' of the knit stitches look like a diagonal line (like a 'slash') and the other leg looks like a straight vertical line (like an "I"). What causes this? The stitches are all the same size as each other, but they are asymmetrical.
@@NimbleNeedles Thank you very much! I was sure you had addressed *somewhere* , but I didn't know where to start looking. Great work, I love the channel! Danke!
you just take a guess, cast on a couple of stitches, knit 3-5 rows and see where it gets you :) Then you unravel and adjust accordingly. There is literally no other way.
Hello! I am just wondering if I should do something extra to get rid of the curling at the sides, or I will see no curling with this pattern. Because my first scarf had this curling and it was so annoying.
Two things emre. This scarf won't curl and there is a video here on my channel with like 10 wats to prevent/fix curling. Maybe watch that and see how to rescue your first scarf as well😊
