No flare on the finished socks. I really dislike having a flare at the bind-off so that's why I love the Icelandic Bind-off for Toe-up Socks. It's stretchy and actually looks nice when not being worn. 😁

Thank you so much, I'm glad the videos have been helpful! I hope you enjoy the new needles, they're my favorites for small circumference knitting. ^_^

I have yarn, I am starting today. A million thank you’s. You are amazing

Haha, why not indeed? It's a fun technique to have in your tool kit, isn't it?

Yay! I'm so glad you found the video helpful & that you were able to weave one, too. Congradulations! 🤩🎉

Aw, thank you! It is very very warm & soft, i just love it! That's fun that we're so close, maybe we'll see each other at a fiber event sometime. 😁

I didn't have a latch hook handy, lol. Also, when I took the class (and when I've done this project off-camera) I didn't have nearly the trouble with the crochet hook that I did while filming this so I didn't anticipate any problems. 😅

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed watching the process. 🥰

It's called a Custom Classic Spinning Wheel. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like they're being made anymore but i have it on my instagram here: instagram.com/reel/C9qTyRNJhoK/?igsh=MW1sN3JhbmtzZnZzeA==

Yay! I hope you like it, it's one of my very favorite bind offs. 😁

I'm so glad it was helpful! If you ever need other tutorials that I don't have available yet just let me know & I'll be happy to put one together for you. Happy crocheting! ^_^

I use this for all kinds of yarn & have never had a problem with it coming undone. If you're using a slippery yarn maybe give yourself a bit longer section of "weaving" it in than you would for a more grippy wool. I use a tail of about 5" (12.5 cm) for superwash, but end up only weaving in about 3" (7.5 cm) as i knit. This is probably more than needed, but i get into a rhythm & stop paying attention. 😅

I'm so glad that this helped. Happy knitting! 🧶💕

This Saturday I'm starting a make-with-me series for a dishcloth based on this blanket pattern where i'll have tutorials & step by step instructions for this technique. 😁 Make sure your notifications are turned on so you don't miss it. 💕

Maybe? Tbh, i'm not very familiar with standard knots outside of knitting & crochet. So I only know this as the Magic Knot. 😅

Thank you! I do, too. I'm so glad to have it back in my stash to use later on. 😁

I thought i was going to have to do that at first but was able to loosen up my tension enough that i was able to stay knitting continental. I don't mind knitting english style, but my tension gets crazy tight at times so that seemed extra unhelpful. 😂

Glad it was helpful!

Aw, your so welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful. 🥰

Aw, thank you! It's nice to be back finally. 😁

I haven't tried that bind off yet, it sounds like it would be a nice one, though. I'll have to give it a try, thanks! 💕

Hi! I appreciate your feedback, but I leave the mistakes in to show viewers that 1.) everyone makes mistakes. 2.) it's not a big deal to make mistakes. 3.) how to easily fix mistakes when/if you make them. I hope this helps clarify my teaching method. Happy knitting! 💕

I actually do switch between my standard purls and Norwegian purls from time yo time to prevent muscle & joint fatigue. I'm most comfortable with demoing using my standard purls, though so that's what I use when I'm filming. The Norwegian purls are a nice change, though. 😉

Wonderful! I do hope you give the yarn a try, I've really been enjoying it & the resulting sweater is just so incredibly cozy!! 💚

Oh wow! I bet it was gorgeous! It's ok to only make basic items, though, too. You still are spending an awful lot of time making something by hand for your grandson. 💕

Yes, it is. Good eye! ^_^

You are so welcome! I'm glad to hear they've been useful for you. ☺️ I always just knit that stitch. You could slip it if you want and it wouldn't be weird, just do whichever you like the look of better.

Not in garter stitch. The wrap blends in with the other stitches since garter stitch has horizontal bumps on both the front and back. 😉

Unfortunately they're a discontinued set from Knitpicks. There are other colors in this same line still available, though. I'm actually working on building my fixed circulars stash with the Sunstruck colorway of these same needles: shrsl.com/4l4oc

@@YumiYarnsthey just look so smooth and nice!! Thank you for your insight and information! I will definitely check those out as I mostly just have clover circulars and chiaogoo ones.

@@Koala-Aquatics they are very smooth & nice! They're surprisingly strong for wooden needles, too. I hope you like them, too! 😁

You should be able to see it in the project photos here: www.yumiyarns.com/product-page/basic-toe-up-adult-socks

@@YumiYarns thank you!!! So lovely ❣️

@@elwiewallin7657you're so welcome! Thank you! 💕

Aw, thank you! I'm so glad you liked it. ^_^

Yay! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I watch a lot of cross stitching videos, too. Who are some of your favorites?

Haha, hubby actually helped a wee little bit in the kitchen last night... he seasoned the chicken and put it in the cook pot since he was in the kitchen and i was not at the moment. 😂

That's a very good point, thank you. I'll switch to a yarn that's better to see next time. 💕

Thanks! They're really fun to make because it's kind of like magic when they're suddenly socks, lol.

Thank you! I'm sorry, I don't currently offer it in french, but I can look into having the pattern translated if you're interested. 💕

Aw, thank you! 🥰

Thank you! 😊 Crochet is really fun, too & you can make gorgeous pieces with just simple stitches. My favorite crochet projects are blankets & stuffed animals. I've seen some really cute crochet sweaters, though. Maybe someday for both of us. 😁

Lol, I guess that's why we have different crafting styles. I can do both, but i have plenty of friends who are just one or the other. At least you've found your happy place. 😁

This is the 64 stitch size. ^_^

@@YumiYarns but what size foot does that fit-6, 8, 10?

@@sy2.083 it's explained in the pattern so you're able to make the socks fit yourself properly.

Hi, sorry about that. After offering the pattern for free for a long time, I started charging $2 for the pattern last year to help keep my website and class lessons active for everyone. You can find the pattern here: www.yumiyarns.com/shop?page=8

@@YumiYarns ok ty very much!

@@sy2.083 np! 💕
