The Magic of Knitting Tubes and the Math to Customize them to Personal Preference 

Knitting has SO MUCH MATH lol. Hopefully I can continue to make fun videos!

I'm so glad you liked the video! I've had a really great break and it's time to do more knitting LOL.

I'm glad you liked the video! The absolutely hilarious thing about your comment is that you pulled out two things that I pretty much know nothing about. I don't design or knit garments and short rows confuse me completely LOL. But I do have a book on short rows and if you want to check it out you can see the book look into it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-i7YWn6nN_jQ.html

It's still in the percolating stage LOL.

All hail the Tube!

I'm going to try and figure out how to make it less intimidating. That said, you know me and garments ... those aren't questions I'm going to be able to answer but honestly, the principal is the same. Thanks for joining me for another year of fibery fun!

It is so fun to change things up. I'm hoping videos like this will encourage more people to do what you do!

Glad it was helpful!

Glad it was helpful!

You can do it!

I can't think of any way to do this because it entirely depends on each specific set of parameters such as stitch repeat, cast on, yarn weight, needle size etc ... With this specific concept, the only place you make a real modification is at the cast on.

Thank you! I'd love to hear about your experiments.

Thank you! I can see needing to rewind a bit because I was a little all over the place LOL.

@@WatchBarbaraKnit I understood the video just fine. I'll rewatch when I'm playing with gauge on sweater patterns, which I do a LOT!

Writing something down is a great way to get something into your brain!

I haven't quite gotten my brain wrapped around helical knitting yet. I hope you're having fun LOL

Another great modification that can be done.

So my business name is a long story but if you look at my logo and then read this: www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tump#dictionary-entry-2 it might clear some things up. I don't know that I am qualified to teach a design class because my approach to design is kinda sideways and from a weird angle (based on discussions I've had with other professionals in my field). LOL

@@WatchBarbaraKnit My phone did something funny and I completely lost my comment. I think every designer is different. I took a design class from someone who primarily used Excel as their designing tool. Excel has never worked for me. I find it clunky and non-intuitive. But it works for her. From the videos I've watched where you talk about design, it's from a conceptual angle. For me, if I know why I'm doing something and where I'm trying to go, I can figure out how to get there. I can figure out the type of math I need to do to find the measurement that I need. I hope you'll think about it for the future. And I looked up the word t u m p e d. I wonder if it's an old word. Or a colloquialism. I'm from the Northeast, so I never heard the word. Interesting .

I'm afraid I have never run across double stockinette, is it like double knitting? I don't have any experience with that so no advice I'm afraid.

That is super cool!

Yeah, it stopped feeling like a word pretty fast LOL.
