How to Knit Stitch (k) in Knitting

In this video I show you how to knit the individual knit stitch, known as 'k' in patterns. Remember to keep your yarn at the back when working this stitch.
Edit* Repeating this individual stitch, row after row will NOT create the traditional V design in knitting, instead it will create a fabric called garter stitch (not shown). To create the fabric shown in the thumbnail do one row of knit stitches, followed by one row of purl stitches, then back to one row of knit stitches etc. This will create the traditional V fabric called stocking stitch.
I am so excited to get started in teaching you how to knit, starting at the very basics and moving on to more advanced stitches and projects as time goes on.
If you don't know me already, I am best known for my crochet tutorials and you can find my crochet channel here: / happyberrycrochet

There is a lot of confusion from beginners on this, if you want to create a V shape knitted fabric as shown in my sample here you need to do one row of the knit stitch shown in this tutorial followed by one row of the purl stitch, then back to a knit row etc. Repeating this knit stitch continuously will not create the V traditional fabric design called stocking stitch, but rather a fabric called garter stitch. This tutorial is purely to show you the knit stitch and I should've shown you on a garter swatch because this seems to have caused undue confusion.

I'm 11, i started crocheting when I was 10. One day i saw my grandmother knitting creations so, when I went yarn shopping i bought knitting needles and I tried knitting for the first time, I saw happy berry knitting. I learned how to cast-on, the k stitch and other stitches from this channel. Thank you happy berry knitting ☺️ and also your crochet channel taught me alot of things 💕💕

@aescover37 6 лет назад

@WippyChickCrochet 5 лет назад

She only showed half of the process. You have to knit one row and purl the next to create the v stitch. Continue the every other row and you will have one side that is v stitch and one side that looks like purl (garter) stitches.

@EdsGurlMitsuki 5 лет назад

You can also alternate knitting every other row left handed for this stitch. That's what I assumed you did when I was first learning and hadn't even heard of purling until I had already completed multiple scarves and similar projects.

@thisworldsans Год назад

Literally just started last night and so far I have learned two methods for casting on and the purl stitch but that wasn't the one that I was wanting. I have gotten great at the casting on part but when I get to moving it to the right needle I have difficulty getting it correct. Can't be too mad though since, as I said, I literally just started. So far you tutorial is easy to understand, and isn't as hard to listen to as others, I just have to get a little more comfortable with it. Edit: I have had to restart from the beginning 5 times now and I still can't seem to figure this out. Casting, great. Getting it onto the other stick, not great.
