Hi Norman. Very interesting bind off. I’m making a cowl that says to bind off loosely so I’m going to be rewatching your videos on bind off methods and maybe do something a bit different than the standard bind off. This video is very timely and your instruction is stellar as usual! Thank you for another great video!😊🤗
Thank you so much for this. I found this stitch easy to remember plus easy to read the stitch so I knew what to do next. Where I struggled was slipping the stitch. I did this on 2x2 ribbing and found that I had to make sure to adjust the twisted stitch by pulling on it so that I had enough loop to get my needle into the stitch. I laughed because in the time it to you to explain and demonstrate several stitches, I got one made. Your stitches never seem to fight you. Thanks again for this video. I do think that I like this stitch and you made it so easy to understand.
generally speaking, I would say that there are no hard rules in knitting. Do whatever you feel looks best for you and you feel is easier. Ultimately, simply knit a small swatch (cast on 14 stitches, knit across 2 rows, bind off). Do this twice and check if which version you like best. It will be 10 minutes work but you will learn a lot in the process :)
I wonder if this method would work for a 2-color bind-off in double knitting? My double-knit bind-offs are always too tight, and I'm thinking this method could help!
