Hey there, Carrie! I always enjoy watching and learning from your videos. While I am no longer a new knitter I still like to come back to some concepts and skills now and then. I still have to tell myself in my head how to M1R & M1L because I mix them up after not using them for a while. I want to say you may have shown the lifted increase before in another video but I don't remember what one. I think that's where I first heard of that increase, but a dedicated video just about that would be appreciated and refereed back to in the future. Thank you again for all your time and effort put into sharing your knowledge about knitting with the rest of us. ❤🐻

My first yarn overs was in creating lace and eyelets. Where dropping the yarn over to create the holes. Then decreasing the decreasing of yarn over by too with a SSK2tg.
