Finally someone else!!! I haven't purled in 20 yrs. . The only thing I do different is transfer my yarn to the right hand and after inserting the left needle into the back , i simply lift the yarn thet is between my first 2 fingers over towards the front ...I can knit backwards way faster than purling..the only time I cant is if its a ribbed row, my brain can not handle that at all..love your videos. I especially liked the Hygge socks.
Thank you so much for this video and the written instructions! I had tried 3 times already to knit a small blanket and it looked so bad, it became that unravelled pile of yarn you showed! 😆 Knitting backwards is the best, I had never thought to do that before, but I can see how much better it made my project look as my tension can get a bit out of whack when knitting and purling, especially with chenille. Your tips definitely saved me and I was able to knit a lovely little blanket for a friend. Thank you! 😊
You are a lifesaver! I've been wrestling with some chunky/bulky chenille for a few days trying to get it to cooperate and become a scarf, and I just couldn't get it to look like anything. Now I feel like I've got a better handle on how to do right by it and make it better. Many thanks!
Thank you. I’m returning to knitting after a 25 year break. My daughter wants a chenille blanket made for Xmas. For the past week I have been struggling so much but this helped me greatly. She may not have it by Xmas but she’ll get it once I get more comfortable and my work doesn’t look so sloppy. Tension is now my focus.
Awesome! I hate purling so I’m definitely going to give this a try! Could you tell me how many yards of yarn you need for this project??? Thanks so much!
Great video! You have such a nice way of explaining things. I'm working with chenille for the first time and making a bed jacket. I did a swatch in stockinette as that is the main stitch in my pattern. My gauge was spot on by going down a needle size. But, the pattern starts with a bottom garter stitch border and by the time I got to the third row it looked like it was going to be way too big! Question: Due to the nap and slippage with chenille yarn, do you have to pull tighter when you knit to get even stitches?
Thank you!! Amazing tutorial! I’m a bit confused about the tension tip #2 tho cause I’m using single point straight needles. Does the tip #2 apply to the straight needles too?
Did Iceyarns go out of business? I love your video and you have inspired me to make this blanket. I love the yarn you used and wanted to buy some but the website is not cooperating for me. Thank you for sharing your fun video!
Thanks for checking in! I am still knitting or crocheting every day 😊 but adjusting to my new environment is taking longer than I thought. I'm not good with change 🤣 I'm about to start posting more regularly again
why can I not get to your blog for the life of me...i have tried going to it thru the link from google, i have then gone to this video and tried the link here, i have manually typed the web address in and then finding the post ..and everytime all that appears is actually nothing, just a blank white screen with no loading anywhere of any kind..???????????????????
please help me I needed to be able to see the more detail. I am currently attempting my very very first knit project ever and i choose this blank with your tips but since you skip from the cattail to the reverse knit i guess i dont under stand how to star the transition...im so lost lol help me
They are circular knitting needles 😊 they make it much easier to knit a large number if stitches (among other things) you can watch this video to learn more 😘 th-cam.com/video/QzjRkV6Ol4I/w-d-xo.html

So cool!! I'm definitely hooked on knitting backwards now 🙈 I gotta try holding the yarn in my right hand! Thanks for hangin around the channel 😊

Yay! 🎉That's so good to hear😁

Great to hear! 🤗
I also was having that trouble! This lady is a lifesaver....
I wish you could see my face when you knit backwards. I've been knitting for 23 years and never even thought about doing that.
The joining knot idea is so clever! Subscribed!

I watched this whole video and I don't know how to knit. Amazing work and very beautiful! I may have to get some needles and yarn.
That's great! I think getting some yarn and needles is always a good idea😉
The trick for joining chenille yarn is *brilliant*.
Yours is beautifully closely knitted. You are a very adventures knitter. You explore knitting alot.
Awesome! I hate purling so I’m definitely going to give this a try! Could you tell me how many yards of yarn you need for this project??? Thanks so much!
A new skill to learn. Thanks for sharing, very helpful info
You are brilliant!! What a great idea!!

I don’t know if I missed but how much stitches do you need?
Haven't seen your channel in a while, since you moved. Are you not crocheting any longer?
Thanks for checking in! I am still knitting or crocheting every day 😊 but adjusting to my new environment is taking longer than I thought. I'm not good with change 🤣 I'm about to start posting more regularly again
@@TheSnugglery Good to know!!!
How much did it cast you to make this a lot of yarn are very pricey
How many meters or balls of yarn would this pattern need?
Can you please share the amount of castings that you did?🙃
How to order this I have to take
The backwards knitting resembles left-handed knitting
Great tips
Great tips! Thank you and how many balls yarn did you use?
Thanks 😁 I think it was about 6 or 7
Wow, such a great video... thank you so much

Esta en inglés quiero las explicaciones en castellano
Wow wow Thanks you so much i speak french and my Anglish is not Very good...Merci beaucoup je vais la faire elle me plaid vraiment 🙋🤗⭐⭐⭐
How much yarn did you use for the size of your blanket ?
Very nice. There was an invitation to come to my house
Moss stitch
not a very good explanation. Here you show how to begin and boom...you already have a blanket. Would be nice to see the actual size of the needles.
Sorry but this isn’t working
How many bundles of yarn was used
