- In this video I demonstrate a simple technique for tidying-up the pesky last stitch in a bind-off.
The needles I use in the video are Knitter's Pride Bamboo DPNs.
The yarn I use in the video is Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Bulky.
My nail polish is Gelish, "I Or-kid You Not".
As a person rediscovering knitting after decades, I’m so appreciative of the many TH-cam instructional videos. Now, when I need to look up or review a stitch, I find that I’m on the lookout for videos from VeryPink Knits! Thanks so much for clear and concise language, helpful tips like this one, and excellent filming.
I just tried this technique for the first time. It really makes a difference. Thank you!
Oh my god I love you so much lol “I’m doing this bind off row to build tension. I’m gonna break the internet”
I legit started dying though xD
Just came back to watch and do this. Great
Also have to say, you make me smile
That's fantastic!! Thank you Stacy for being my knitting teacher, I've learned so much from you.
Awesome! I'm never binding off without this technique again!
Just finished a shawl and tried this trick...worked like a charm! Thanks for being my "go to" resource. Love your videos!!
Oh the tension! (I am sure your pun was intended.) . The technique is great! Life-changing. :) Thanks!
Actually used this today. Worked like a charm. Thank you!
This is such a simple technique that makes such a big difference. No more wonky bind off ends! Thanks
OH Staci this is such a neat idea and like you stated a forehead slapping easy one. Thanks for all of your great and helpful ideas.
I found this trick earlier today and used it to finish a scarf. Wow! What a great tip!
Internet is broken!
So simple yet so effective! Thanks for sharing
Yay! The answer to my podcast question! Thanks, Staci!! That's way simpler than I thought it'd be. You're the best!
oh wow! what a simple but awesome trick! I am sure this is something we all see when we bind-off and never thought much about. Now we will all have tidy BO at the end! Thank you Staci!
I love your posts. You make things so easy. Thank you
Oh my Goddess, I just tried this technique for binding off with one stitch left & I don’t know how I never learned this before. I have been knitting for a long time & no one has ever taught this to me!! I just love all your videos. Thank you.🧶👏👏
Who knew! So easy... absolutely a head slapping moment! Thank you!
What a nifty trick! Thanks so much.
Oh my!!!! Awesome!!!! Great tip that change the knitting. Love your videos. Merci!!!!
Love ! Mine always look like a ski slope 😂 this is a game changer for me 👍🏻
Wow! Slapping my head as I key this in! This is so brilliant, and yet so easy. Thank you very much for it.
I literally love you and am so grateful for your videos!
Mind blown. Thank you!!
Yes, I'm slapping my forehead right now, wondering why I didn't think of that, thanks so much for all the helpful tips you give us. Appreciate them all so much!
Thank you! Have been doing sloppy last stitch for year. Slapping my head indeed!
Oh my!! 🤦🤦🤦 I needed this soooo bad! Thank you as always Staci, you're amazing and, if I may be completely honest, more gorgeous everyday! ❤️
Thank you 😊 I'm just starting out, again, but not satisfied with my cast off. I really appreciate your help!
Thank you so much for that wonderful tip!! That’s amazing and so simple!! You are the best!!!
I'm slapping my forehead, (and I could have had a V-8 with it)! I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your videos. Thank you so much for the education on knitting.
BRILLIANT!!! Thanks as always Staci.
I’ve always struggled with thst last bind off stitch. This is great! Thank you. 💕🌸
This is great. Thank you!!
I love how simple it is! But honestly, I would have never found out by myself so THANK YOU VERY MUCH, Staci! What a fantastic tip. x Davie
This is just what I was looking for...so simple and neat. Thank you!
That is amazing, thank you again for all of your great videos
Staci, this is most helpful. Thank you so much for this tip. You're right it truly is a "slap yourself in the forehead moment" 🤦♀️
Thank you so much for this simple effective method to neaten up the bind off. Timely too as the bind off of my sweater sleeve will attest!
Great technique! This helped me so much thank you!
The reason I clicked on this was because I heard you giving advice to someone on your audio podcast, about just taking the yarn through the last loop. I used to do that and I thought NO! You'll end up with a lump! Now I get it!I have been using a technique where you sew into another stitch before going through the last loop. But this way looks much more reliable! I'll be doing it your way!!
This is fantastic! I have often felt that the final bind-off stitch ruined the symmetry of my work and this simple remedy is amazing! Thank you!
Tried it and um..... 😱 amazing!!!!! Just finished your cabled baby blanket and that’s what I tried it on. Loved doing the blanket by the way!
Not sure this would fly in my MHK class but it is a great solution for my own projects.
Great tip!!! Thank you
Hi Staci! Your treasure trove of lessons is exceptional, and you are as sweet as a strawberry. Hugs :)

I'm fan of yours..
Just have 1 suggestion as need to see subtitles while watching.. bcoz of subtitles I can't see your work completely.. so please try to position your hands in middle of the screen.. so it will be easy for others like me too..
This is indeed a great tip. Thanks !
Thank you sooo much i needed this video
Great tip!
This is awesome. I hope I remember this. And by the way, your nails are gorgeous!! :-)

Your videos are so straightforward and easy to follow. I really find the ones in slow motion very helpful also.

Definitely a forehead smacking moment. Thanks!
As mom would say... Weeeeeeell! The spelling doesn't do justice to the sound effects! Lol Thank you!
Loved it!
Love it!
Genius!
Beautiful! Can this also be done when binding off the last stitch of a rib button band of a cardigan?
Excellent!
Omg!......wow!....thank you
Perfecto,,,gracias por compartir
Oh my goodness. Who knew. Lol. Thanks!!
Super helpful! Thanks again Staci! Would this trick work with binding off garter stitch?
Genius! =)
Muy bien explicado me gusta un saludó desde España
Ok. Yes, that was a facepalm moment. lol... Thank you for sharing!
Wow 😊
What is your suggestion for in the round? Especially in reference to toe up socks. Great tutorial!! Absolutely an easy fix for a problem I think we’ve all had.
Yes, different technique - here's my trick for that, this technique gives you a topline with no break in the look of the BO stitches: th-cam.com/video/7h9SC9KSUfg/w-d-xo.html
This looks like a great trick. Would you do anything different if you were knitting in the round?
Yes - here's my trick for that, this technique gives you a topline with no break in the look of the BO stitches: th-cam.com/video/7h9SC9KSUfg/w-d-xo.html
Great video! I have a question. After finishing increases for toe up socks, it's time to knit the foot. I've noticed I get pointy "corners" on each side where I've begun the foot. Is there a technique to avoid these "corners?"
It depends on your pattern, but once the socks are washed or put on a foot, you should see the toe shape round out.
Yass!
