Tip for the beginners out there like me:
When you’re knitting in the round, a stockinette stitch doesn’t alternate between knitted and pearl rows. You just knit the whole time and because you are always on the right side the pattern is stockinette.
Maybe obvious to some but I was seriously struggling until I learned this :)
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH !! I was struggling so much
Me who doesn’t know what a stockinette stitch, and a pearl is: :’)
It’s PURL
Ahhh thank you for this !! First time for circular needles so I’m overthinking it all !!
Genius! Thank you for your foresight in sharing!!!
When you just want a chunky knit sweater that's not a cable knit sweater and can't buy them anywhere it's time to make one. I've only ever done basic knitted hats and thanks to this tutorial feel more confident on making this type sweater. Thank you
4:12 PRO TIP: don’t screw on interchangeable needles by holding them at the wood portion of the needle. Over time you will weaken the bond between the wood and metal and they’ll break. Always screw them on while holding onto the metal base only. 😉
Ya know I don't own this type of needle, but will definitely do this if I get one lol
Do i need to switch the needle ? Can i just use one all the way
I love the light blue sweater you’re wearing. Gorgeous! Would love to learn to knit that one too. 👍🏼
It's a favorite of mine too :) Pattern is not my own, I think I have it linked in the description!
@@WellLovedKnits Thank you❣️
@@WellLovedKnits i love your light blue sweater too. would you please show us how to crochet it instead kniting it. thanks in advance
@@yazenfairo7505 she doesn't crochet
@@elirae9419 thanks alot my dear
The LYKKE Kit only goes up to 12mm, PLEASE can you let us know where you got the 15mm interchangable needle? Thank you in advance for your response.
Hey! It’s knit pro :) 15mm works on the same needles!
@@WellLovedKnits Thank you for your response! So helpful! Can't wait to make this sweater.
Very nice knit
Holy moly I was mesmerised by this vid. Currently feeding off of a recent desire to knit and embroider. Hope it last long enough for me to learn this kind of stuff. I know a friend who would loooove a top like this
You can do it!!!
IF YOU ARE A BROKE COLLEGE KID LIKE ME BUT LIKE BULKY/CHUNKY YARN LISTEN UP
paint box yarn has a rainbow assortment of acrylic yarn called “simply chunky” and it’s $3 a skein !
you just saved my life tysm
THANK YOU
how did you knowww :')
I'd love to do this if my mom hadn't temporarily banned me from knitting😂 (since I idiotically used it as an escape and my grades suffered poorly)
THANK U
I taught myself how to knit and started with scarfs. It's only been a couple of months but the needles you use are so beautiful. I can't wait to begin my sweater.
Hi, I just wanna say that admire you because to knit it's a great labor, I don't even to knit, I watch tutorials to improve my english skills so thanks for sharing.
That's actually such a smart way to learn a language! I'm going to give this a shot with swedish! Also, your English seems awesome going off of this comment :))
I bought this pattern yesterday and am almost done with the back panel. Very exciting to see my first sweater come to life!
Hey! I bought this pattern too, but do you knit the back and front panel in circular needles or on straight needles and then sew them together?
i cant find the pattern, can you put a link of the pattern on the store? i think it no longer exists but im not sure
10 seconds into the video and I love you already! You’re amazingly talented and charismatic 💕
Thank you so much!! Really kind of you
Such a cute sweater!! Saving this video for when I finally get out of my beginner knitting era and move into the phase where I can make useful objects :)
I’m brand new to knitting and not ready to take on an actual project, but I love your videos so here I am 😂
I feel bad because I’m sure she explains really well but 10 seconds into the vid and you already lost me-
for more in depth tutorials on the basics of knitting, i'd recommend verypinkknits for imperial style and arne and carlos for continental style.
Same, I don't understand a single thing
Same here. As a beginner, I wonder why it says beginner friendly in the title, because I'm totally lost. Still, thank you for taking the time and effort to make this video. The sweater looks really nice.
Same 😭
Lol me too
I saw Tom Daley knitting on the olympic yesterday..thats why im here..really love to learn this❤
samee
Sameee
I don’t know how it’ll turn out, but I did it! I took the plunge and purchased my first knitting pattern. Wish me luck!! Thank you so much for this adorable sweater!
You got this!!
@@WellLovedKnits Thank you so much! Happy Holidays and thank you again!! :)
update???
I follow you on Instagram and I love your patterns! I'm glad I've found your YT channel! I've started knitting in December and I can't wait to make this sweater as soon as my local yarn store reopens!.
Keep it up!
Edit: grammar mistakes
Ah! I love hearing that :) Thanks so much for following along!!
I find it very cool that you buy at a local store!
I wanted to share this info with you. The Lykke set I bought from Amazon was a fake. I can't believe that a dupe would be made on a knitting set. The way you can tell is the placement of the Lykke label. Their signature label is placed directly flush with the stitches, also they don't have Lykke engraved on the zipper on the authentic one. Another thing is the needle board that has velcro is supposed to be a perfect rectangle but on the fake the bottom corners are trimmed off. I hope all this makes sense. A big give away is the 24" cord is actually only 15" in length. All of the included cords are not the correct length.
I only want to inform you and others because the needles are not handmade or made to last. Thank you for reading.
Yikes!! Thanks for sharing. On the Lykke website they have a list of shops where you can find their product! I would recommend checking there!
@@WellLovedKnits Your Lykke Set looks real, and I went ahead and stopped by my local shop and they sold me a real one. Thank you for your great info. I am making a video on the genuine one vs the dupe.
I unfortunately don’t have anywhere near that sells the LYKKE sets, so I could only resort to Amazon. So, I can’t confirm whether or not the ones on Amazon are fake, but these are still pretty fantastic knitting needles. I’m pretty sure I got all the right cord lengths, all 8 stoppers, etc. I guess since they may not be the real deal, these are a pretty darn good “dupe”, they are made to be basically the same but $40 cheaper. Idk, as long as you have the right size needles for pattern, will it make a huge difference if they aren’t real LYKKE?
@@brbrat9 There are some places that will sell Lykke Needles to you through their local online shop. Just do a search for it on the Lykke site. For me I read too many reviews where the needles broke in half after just a few uses. I agree the dupes are almost identical in looks but not in quality. I wanted to save $40 too but not if they're only going to last for a month or two. I made a video to spot the difference if you're interested.
@@WellLovedKnits I cannot find the size 19 interchangeable needles anywhere, as part of a kit or separate tips. The kits only go up to size 17 from what I can see. Anyone in this thread have any ideas?
I love this video! 😍 thank you so much for all the effort you‘ve been putting into your videos and your instagram!
Love, Bella.
I'm just so glad you love it!!!
she deserves more subs and likes. didn't she????
yeah
Yes.
I watched one video on beginners knitting and now I’m here. I haven’t even knitted anything before. I’m lying in bed watching this at midnight
this is absolutely not for beginners and no way "step by step".
Obviously it’s meant for new knitters, but not people who have NEVER knitted before. This is common knitting sense. You never start knitting by knitting a sweater. This video is amazing.
@@Kristinekonand where you start? I would like to learn it
@@spaziovuoto6344you can start by knitting a scarf, you can knit different scarfs with different patterns or a small sqaure with different patterns until it's neat. It really helps you understand the basics before you start working on big projects.
@@spaziovuoto6344you can search up tutorials for absolute beginners on youtube
i recommend watching the ultimate guide video by ikoxun since she explains most of the basic things in details
@spaziovuoto6344 start with a scarf! After that, a beanie hat maybe. Sweaters are not for beginners! This vid is for ppl who already know knitting, but need help with sweaters. A sweater shouldn't be your first ever project :) patience love
This is my third time knitting this jumper because I love the process and finish so much of this one
Been looking for a way to make my own simple sweater with my specific yarn/needle specifications (I haven’t been able to find a free pattern). I know this video is for a certain pattern but I really feel like it has helped me understand how to make my own with my specific needs in mind. Very helpful, thank you!
You sure make this look easy! I love this project and hope to try it soon ! Thanks so much for sharing how to so this and all you do. You are so gifted and seem like such a wonderful person.
Oh my gosh!! You’re so sweet. I hope you give it a try for yourself☺️
you have such a professional collection of needles!!!!!!!
Omg this is THE BEST explanation video for knitting a sweater - thank you so much, I finally understand how things are working!😍🧡
This looks so cozy and cottagecore, matches my vibe.
when using a long tail cast-on on longer stitch counts, use both ends of the ball, or two strands. tie the ends together closely and then begin the long tail method as normal, both stands live off the ball(s). you will simply cut the extra end off once your stitch count is achieved, no guessing.
I just bought one of your patterns and I’m so excited to start! I used to knit all the time and I’m sooo excited to get back into it. I love sweaters as well so it’s perfect lol
You made this look so easy! Thank you. I love the look of the sweater.
I just started knitting and I really wanna try to make this sweater it looks stunning, the only problem is that I don't own any circular needles do you think I can still make this with straight needles?
For the body, you could use straight needles if they come in the size you need to get gauge. For the sleeves, you will need circular needles or double pointed needles to knit it in the round.
Made your v-neck vest for my daughter. She loves it!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful knitting tutorial ! 😊💗
I think using another color for the neck, bottom cuff, and sleeve cuffs would look really nice, I'm excited to try this out
Great video thank you
How is this one of your first videos??! You're killin it 😍 excellent job
Also, hold up. Were those lykke needle tips and knitters pride needle tips using the same cord? I didn't know that, that's awesome!
Yes two different brands! 15mm is KnitPro :) They magically work on the same cord! So convenient!
Glad you liked it!!
hey! i just wanted to add that in the pattern it needs clearer instructions for finishing the front panel shoulder area. it actually turned out to be uneven as it was 1 row short on the left side. and the cutting of extra yarn to finish the left side should have been mentioned. also, when casting off for the neckline to cast off one extra as I ended up with an extra stitch on the right side. so it becomes 10/11 cast off. no hate- just wanted to make others aware of this and I'm more than a beginner knitter so newbies would be very confused.
I’m in the comments searching for help about the left shoulder. I’ve finished the right shoulder and casted off, now I have my left stitches and no working yarn. I’m super beginner knitter here. Would you mind describing what I should do here? Thanks!
Thank you! noticed the same, but I'm a beginner so I've been second guessing.
I love this!!! I just cannot find any US 19 needles at all! It seems like everyone caps off at 17. Is there a substitute size to use?😭
I crochet and want to branch out learning to knit to find a fellow Bethany that also crafts ♥️
Video is So Clear😊👌🏼 I appreciate this Video & thank you !!!❤
I absolutely love this! How long does it roughly take to knit up? I have never knitted in the round before, so the sleeves scare me a bit. Would love more indepth video of how to pick up stitches and knit in the round for collar and sleeves
As a more experienced knitter, this takes me around 3-4 days to knit :) To pick up stitches around the collar and sleeves, the steps are the same. I do offer a more 'in depth' look in my v-neck collar video. The process to pick up is exactly the same: th-cam.com/video/opbUCNdNyQg/w-d-xo.html
I think it all depends on how fast you knit and the needles you are using. Metal needles are quicker than wood in my experiance, so if you already are a quicker knitter than average and are good with metal needles, id say it takes probably a day less (also depending if you cramp easily and how long you spend knitting each day) than she says, at least for me. Continental and other techniques can also speed up your knitting pace. But i find if you arent well versed in continental it slows you down.
too good for a starting channel
ghourl u killin it
thank you so much! it's really encouraging :)
It's so very cute, both the sweater and the way she was explaining it, just one bad thing the process seems difficult for beginners, apart from that it was super cool video ❤️
Hello, bought the pattern everything in going great except for im confused in the shoulders, if I cast off for the right shoulder where should my string start for the left? Or what do I do to pick up the left with? Super new to knitting, please help. Thank you!
I love the video. So few tell how many skeins they use. It is easier for me to calculate to my size when people tell their size and amount ❤
what the heck did you do with the other stitches you put on the separate needle??
Lovely sweater and very clear instructions. It almost makes me want to knit a sweater. Almost 😂
Bethany, thank you for the "Free Guide: Super Chunky Yarn on a Budget" link. Much appreciated :)
thank you so much for this video!! im attempting this as my first sweater and it makes it so much less intimidating!!
This was a beginner friendly video???😭😭😭😭
This video was so helpful! I can't wait to try this!
idk how to knit but im OBSESSED NOW so I believe I can do and im going to DO IT
Thank your for the chunky yarn on a budget document !!!!!
Would love to learn how to make the orange and beige one in the background!
I loved the way that's you makes things easier for me 💖🌺
Thank you for the tutorial. It looks like I can knit the sweater. i will try it as soon as I have time and material.
for sweater, we can do any type of stiches for each sweater right..........do we have to memorize all the stiches???
Recently bought the pattern! I’m so excited to try this out
Yay, thank you! Hope you like it x
Wow that is so cool. I cant beleive how good you are.
Great tutorial! Will definetly use it in The future but maybe just tweak some things to my liking
This is awesome!i am a kid and i just learned to knit
Love the sweater and the video! Although I wonder, how hot can you wash this kind of yarn? It looks amazing, but I'm scared that anything I'll make with it will just turn to felt...
Not too hot. I hand wash my knits in warm water and lay flat to dry!
You did a Wonderful job!!!
Amazing thank you! Can I ask, did you cut your yarn to knit the left shoulder side when you finished the right? You put your stitches for the left shoulder on another set of needles and then knitted the right side , that would mean to knit the left after, without connecting the 2 sides you’d need to cut? Just checking to make sure I do it right !
Yes that's right! Just make sure you have a long enough tail so you don't lose any stitches and weave in the yarn strand afterwards.
thank you for sharing this beautiful knitting tutorial !😊💗
Glad you enjoyed it!!
I’m tryna make a bearded dragon sweater with cool twine and this was helpful surprisingly lol.
Hey!! So I purchased your pattern on Etsy, and I love ittt so easy, and I’ve really come far considering it’s my first project. I’m at the stage where I’ve knit the right shoulder, and I have to go back to the left shoulder and start knitting there, I cut the yarn before starting on the right shoulder but didn’t leave a tail. So now I’m confused with how to start knitting the left shoulder without any yarn dangling from it. Helppp 🥺🥺🥺
Me too 🥺
Did u find a method of fixing it ?
Same here, any tips?
I wish you could elaborate more on the sleeves. I’m not familiar with the stocking stitch
I am working on the sleeves. The pattern says work stitch until your sleeve reaches approx 40 for large is that cm or inches? Thanks for the clarification
Did you cast off some stitches for under arm? Or you just knitted the back panel straight to the shoulders?
you make it look sooooo easy! I so very want to try this sweater! you are so talented with your knitting skills! 😍
Love the neutral natural color! 🐌🌰
Wow! I didn't even know that there are interchangeable needles?! How cool is that?!
cool how you come up first when typing the words "knit sweater"
Brilliant , and so easily understandable...thank U Bethany. 💥
Uuuu I like the tutorial is so simple but i must to try😁thank’s for the tutorial👋🏻💗
I have a question that can I make the sleeves separately and then attach with the sweater
I'm interested in buying this pattern, (it's super cute!), But there is no size guide for your individual sizes, do you have any bust measurements for each size so I know which to choose?
Lovely and to the point guide, love this^^ So underrated channel.
buying the pattern asap, it looks awesome!
I’m so excited to make this!! I’m newer to knitting and only have the US 19 circular needles. Could I knit this using only US 19 needles instead of switching from the US 17? What would the difference be? Thank you!
I love the sweater you are wearing! Is so pretty.
How many stitches do you have for the front and back? I counted 38 :/
Do you skip any stitches when you are picking up for the collar or sleeves?
Yes! I pick up two and skip over one.
Thank u very much for sharing this.😍I will try it.
Hey, I’m the 80.000th Follower 👋🏼💗
I had to save and give this a like 👍
Wow I am very interested with knitting good job keep it up more
Heyo! Firstly, saying that I'm OBSESSED with your channel is an understatement. Secondly, do you have a link to your 'how to shoulder seam' video?
Thank you so much dear i made it i love it 😍💋
How to knit the sweater or top you are wearing in this video It's so amazing I love it .please make video on it please.
I have a question which one is easy crochething or knitting??
Hi! Absolutely love this sweater! Also I was wondering, do you use the magic loop method to knit the cuffs? Or do you manage with 40cm circular needles?
Nowhere near ready to make jumper lmao but saving this for a few months time 😌😌😌
Hi! Where do you stop seaming to start the arm holes? Is this specified in the written pattern? Thanks!
Wow Fantastic that's the same I have but other was also pretty
Hard to make too
when i start back yarning i hope to make some patterns and lines.
Oh dear, how much i would like to knit like you do ! 🌹
Looks stunning 😍
