For a plain garter stitch shawl: At 9 stitches - 4:20 in video - turn the work as normal, then start the increases as follows .... Begin: Row 1: knit 3 stitches, YO, knit across all stitches to the end of the row. Then just repeat this one row (yeah!) until your shawl is the size you want and simply cast off loosely. Job done. This is a great easy telly watching shawl..... useful stash buster, just use up all your random ends of DK projects. For further info just look at the youtube videos for the garter stitch diagonal dishcloth/blanket, with or without decorative YOs. Thank you to Yarnist for uploading this video.
Thank you! First triangle shawl. Attempted this set up 3 times before searching for a how-to video. They had me stopping on row 5 before picking up the additional 6. I was having a devil of a time finding the 3 p/u sites. This made it super easy.
I've just begun knitting a shawl for a friend (b-day present) and I thought i'd gone insane while reading the written instructions! Thank you very very much for all your videos (and not just this one)! You've been a major help for a long time now!! Greeting from Greece!
Thank you so much! This made everything so clear. I was confused before and knew I didn't have it right. Now I am on my way with my shawl! I really appreciate being shown how to do this.
you probably dont give a damn but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost my account password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me
@Kingsley Ayden thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Thanks for this, I've been learning to knit for a while via TH-cam and every time I find a new 'what the... what does that even mean?' instruction, there you are with a nice clear video.
With all due respect... Why is it that almost 99% of the instructors for this particular initial step when making a top down shawl, stop like you do in this video and don't try to show the viewer how to go on to the next four knitted rows including the Yarn Overs, their distribution and, most importantly, their size...? I see many videos where they show the finished shawl and point to perfect Yarn Overs along the border and down the middle, BUT... when they start working on the show piece and show the finished object, the spaces are not of equal size and many have a solid area or a hump...??? What is the secret to have decent, equal size holes...? And, also, how do you knit the center or spine stitch that always comes shorter...? Thank you for the attention...!!! Next time when re-doing the video about this subject, add 6 or more knitted rows after the casting on to show the Yarn Overs spaces... Please...

I really couldn't make any sense of the written instructions describing this technique but your video showed it so clearly. Thank you!

I've just looked at at least 3 other garter stitch tab tutorials and yours is by far the easiest! Thank you!

When reading directions on how to do this it's almost impossible. Looking at this video makes it so easy to do. Thanks so much!
Totally didn't understand the directions on a pattern I wanted to use...this helped immensely! Thank you!
Excellent tutorial! I looked at many of the Garter Stitch Tab videos and this, in my humble opinion, is the best!
Finally I understood how this works, great tutorial! Tanks
Thank you! Thank you! Was so confused on this direction to start a shawl!! Now I am good!!! Yay!!
Your explanation and demonstrated made this so much easier . I watched a few other videos, but none made much sense.
Thanks!
You're welcome! Glad to help.
Marvelous tutorial! Very clear, very informative!
Great tutorial! I am about to start my first lace shawl and didn't understand the pattern. Thanks for this clear demo and explanation.

What do you mean rest of the pattern when you mentioned about the 3 stitches in the center? I'm sorry as I am sure it's simple
I'm still confused too!

They were custom made by a company called Montana Mountain Knitting Needles, but they are no longer in business.
Thank you! 🌷
