Definitely, Roxane is the best teacher I've ever found on TH-cam. Thank you very much for sharing.
Thank you so much, that was amazing. I feel as though I learnt a lot and you explained everything so well.
Thank you. This was very helpful. I love the reference to the angle of a needle for the decrease direction - now I have a visual and will never forget it!
Its a great video!! I make a lot of hats, and generally use a pattern, what I love about this is I can just make plain hats and add a lovely decrease. Thanks so much.
Thanks a lot for giving me a way to remember which decrease is leaning which way - the usual advice is to read the stitches, which is fine for yarn with good stitch definition and good light, but not if either of the two is missing. The tip with the direction the working needle is pointing is reasonably idiotproof and works in any light and with every yarn.
I always had trouble with knowing where the decrease would lean. That working needle tip changes everything! (I am kind of a new knitter)
💕😀xx Another great hat tutorial. Thanks Rox. Happy new year.
You are a great teacher.
Thank you very much ❤
Love the way you explain all the decreases techniques.
I love your videos. I am the kind of person who likes to know how calculate my pattern on what I want my final product size to be. I don't like to follow pre-made patterns. I also sew and crochet and that has always been the way I work. You give me the information I need to make my own design based on my size needs. Thank you!
Thank you, Roxanne for sharing your skills with us!! ❤
Thank you for the explanation of the ladder that appears with the subtle version! I just finished a hat that used this shaping technique and thought I was doing something wrong when the ladders showed up. And now I know an alternative!! Thank you, Roxanne 🥰
Thank you for this video !! The clearest explanation of crown decrease calculation I've found.
I am always happy to see you because you have great things happening in your life and always have really interesting things to talk about. Today was no different. I have a cardigan that my Sister, my Mother and I knitted in 1972 when I started nursing. They both didn't want me to think that I was on my own and this was the way to solve it. Now that they have both passed, I wear it sometimes to remember them. It is still in really good condition for its age.
Thank you for your visit and looking for to catches up next time. Take care.
Another go-to video!
Thanks again for your tutorials.
I love this series! It's so helpful, and I'm so much more comfortable with knitting hats on the fly after studying them. Thank you!
Always great podcast 😊
These are so helpful. Thank you.
Great series!
Thank you for the great information, I look forward to seeing more about this
Thanks you so much. This was exactly a video that I needed!
Thank you
You are the best!
Thank you so much.
I have been driving my mechanical engineer husband crazy with my questions about lopsided crown decreases. With your help I think I know where I am making my mistakes in the crown decreasing. First I will start using the worksheet it will be very beneficial in keeping track of my rounds and also verifying if I need a set up round. My go to decrease is k2tog, knit one, then ssk. Thank you so much.
Thanks!
Hi Roxanne...could you do a video on how to change from circular needles to double-pointed needles....e.g. how many DPNS, how to effect the transfer without having the stitches slip off the DPNS, when is a good time (which round) to make the switch?
Wow! your tablet shows up really well.
Takk!
You're welcome! :-)
I always love your videos and have learned so much from you! I appreciate all your hard work and effort that goes into your videos!
Any chance you remember the name of the colorwork hat pattern you show near the end when diacussing maintaining patterns while decreasing? 😊😊
That's a hat I designed for Level III of the Master Hand Knitting program. There is no published pattern.
Excellent video as usual, so useful. I am looking forward to your thoughts on keeping in pattern.Thanks Roxanne ( where is the link to the calculation page please?)
Oops! I forgot to link it! I'll do that shortly. Thanks for the heads up!
Hello Roxanne, have you any tutorials on 2x2 rib grafting please? Thank you.
I do not.
What if you have a 1x1 rib hat in the ROUND that calls for an ssp (LEFT-leaning) decrease that’s joining a knit and a purl stitch? Do you still slip the stitches kw and purl through the back? And a p2tog on the front side that’s RIGHT-leaning, in the round? Thank you.
ssp and p2tog are worked the same, regardless of how the sts were worked the previous round.
I am trying this method but keep getting large wholes on the side of the decrease lines
Thank you for the video. So helpful! !! The link to the google doc sheet says the file has been deleted. Could you please update the link?
Thanks for letting me know. I’m out of town, away from the computer where the file is stored, so it will be about a week before I can Reupload and link to that file.
The link has been updated.
@@RoxanneRichardson thanks for letting me know!
Where can I find the pattern for this hat?
There aren't patterns for any of the hats in the video.
