I wish you would write a book with all of your useful tips and tricks. I would definitely buy a copy :)
Me too!
This was extremely helpful. I couldn't understand how to begin to create the neckline of a sweater until I saw your video. You explained it soo clearly, and now I feel like I can actually attempt to do this. I like the idea of creating a swatch to practice the neckline too. Your a terrific teacher. Thank you!
This is one of my go-to knitting technique videos. It's the small things that can make SUCH a difference!
Thank you! I am knitting a scarf with many open spaces, like buttonhole. I was annoyed with the sloppy holes I get binding off. I’ve been searching for a solution to this for a while now. You have supplied it. ☺️💕
Thank you very much! The result of my pockets is perfect. Huge fan of your videos, I'm glad I found your channel. Thanks again!
Thank you so much! I converted a piece-knit cardigan pattern to seamless and wasn't sure how to handle the combined armhole bind off. Your method worked perfectly.
Yes Roxanne this finesse technique was very useful indeed it has been a saviour after years of having scruffy corners, thanks for a full demonstration and explanation
I am at the neck bind off stage of my very first sweater. Your teaching methods are incredibly clear and helpful!!!
Yay, thank you!
Arrrggg.....I have searched for several days for this video because I did not remember it was about binding off in the middle of the row. I was looking for something about buttonholes. But I FOUND IT once I remembered it was about binding off in the middle of a row. THANK YOU for saving my buttonholes and the leg holes of the dog's sweater from being a mess. As usual the best teaching on the web as regards all things knitting.
Me too! I was trying to use buttonhole techniques to make a ponytail hole in a hat, and everything I tried was a mess. This helps! Thanks!
you are always my go to teacher - you instructions are so clear and the video supporting the instructions is always superb
All these years of knitting and I learn this. THANKS SO MUCH!
I’m swatching to practice my first mid-row bind off and when I was done I thought to myself “I need Roxanne to fix this!” Roxanne to the rescue! Thank you!
I love these ingenious fixes for small but annoying problems.
Knitter for 40 years an my mind is blown! This easy step will make my future knitting so much tidier! I love your technique videos, thank you for all your work
You are so good at explaining things and showing them. I always come to your channel to learn new knitting techniques and problem solving. Can be bit tricky sometimes to find the correct video because English is not my first language and knitting lingo is not my strong suite lol
Isn't she just ,her channel is the knitting bible
I can’t tell you how many of your tutorials and explanations have bettered my abilities as a knitter! I think half of my knitting references, if not more, are all from you! Thank you so, so much for sharing your knowledge and experience with anyone who has need of it! Truly a service to our knitastical community! ❤
This is actually really helpful for improving the look of two-row buttonholes!
Hi Roxanne: Thank you for showing me the right way to bind off without gaps. I am doing miniature sweaters and that gap at the neckline was really something you couldn't miss. Again, really useful tips. Again, thank you...
Thank you for this video. I'm working on a scarf with open squares in it and your 'finesse' technique is exactly what I needed!
I just used this making a dog sweater for the leg holes. I'd never done that before. Great video! Wish I'd seen this then, it would've helped my understanding of what I was doing.
Excellent instruction. My local yarn shop wants you to pay for help time and I can’t go running to them every time I need help so these videos are wonderful. Especially because they are booked out weeks in advance. And I don’t want to start knitting for weeks while I wait to get help. So thank you very much.
Wow, thank you for this amazing tutorial. I was really confused because I have 86 stitches but the total stitches mentioned in the binding off row was 84. Your explanation at 6:40 was perfect and I figured it out. Thank you so, so much!
Awesome! I wondered if there was a way to eliminate the hole at the beginning of the bind-off. Woohoo!!! Thank you Roxanne for the golden nuggets of knitting tips!
thank you Roxanne ! your explanation is very clear ! good lesson!
Thank you at last I know how to get rid of the gaping edges …….I am so grateful thank you very very much👍😘
Fantastic tip as always Roxanne! You are so helpful.
This is very helpful and thank you! I’m a newer knitter and kept thinking I was doing something wrong to leave those gaps in there. I ripped back a few inches and redid my neckline using this technique and it looks so much better!
Oh my goodness.....This is brilliant and very useful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! I learn something new every time I watch you technique Tuesday’s!
I'm actually a loom knitter , I think this tutorial will help me? I started loom knitting a little more than a year ago. I wasn't really sure how much I'd like it because I mostly make things for my dollhouses and the Chelsea hybrids that I made? After I figured out how to do doll clothes, I decided to get a small gauge Loom. Then down to a 1/4 fine gauge. And of course small gauge yarns. I've even used crochet threads, recently started trying nylon threads. I've had a really bad couple of years and it's helpful to stay busy.
I've been learning about converting needles to looms. You seem to be the only person I've found that addresses the issues I'm having for the neckline and armholes? So thank you 😊
Thank you so much for this technique. I've always struggled with bind-off corners, and adjusted/fixed while knitting the neckline. Though no one else would notice, I still thought the corners a little wonky. Can't wait to try this technique. Rox rocks!
Bet this would be good for bound-off buttonholes! I've always hated how they look, and how baggy they become because of gapping at the corners! Thanks!
What a great technique! What a difference it makes in the look! I loved the speed knitting lol! Thanks for another great video!
Well, THIS WAS BRILLIANT! Yes, this issue if The Gap and The Strangled Stitch has always bugged me, even if it's an area that will have a neckline picked up. I'll remember this video, and save it in my TH-cam videos folder! Thanks!
this is so neat, thank you for this :) i used to just use spare yarn to kind of fill in the gap and bring the stitches together again but this is so much more convenient!
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! I am knitting the Lalique sweater from Ravelry and was so confused at the first row where you bo for armhole! Thank you so very much! RoxRocks!
Thank you so much for all the refinement techniques you share. Always so very easy to understand what you are teaching and the small things that bug me are solved by consulting your videos. Still a beginner/ intermediate, but like to challenge myself.
Wow!!! Yet another brilliant technique! This is really good!
Thank you 😊 I am making a infant sleeves jacket,neck down and have to bind off under arm . I have been unhappy with the result but now it looked tidy 😅❤. Thank you
I like how the video speed was increased during middle bind off, instead of magically fading out and in.
It gave me the opportunity to slow it down or keep that in mental memory.
Very clear explanation! You’ve helped me! Thank you for sharing 🧶
Great and very useful information. It’s something I’d never thought of. Thanks!
Exactly what I wanted to know, and perfectly explained. Thanks so much!
Thank you very much Sofia from Egypt
Thank you for this technique 🙂 I stumbled onto you whilst finding ways to make my first attempt at a knitted tote bag look great. With your help, I think it will be fabulous!
Thank you for sharing this. I am knitting teddy bear sweaters from bottom front, over the top and down to bottom back. Had no idea how to fix the gap for the neck. You are a genius!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful technique.
So great to learn this! I always hated the ends of the boundoff sts but didnt know how to rectify it.
Thank you! These finessed techniques are genius!
Really useful refinement. Thanks.
Thank you so much! I have this "gap" issue when making fingerless mittens with a thumb gusset. This should do the trick!
Once again, great info! Sort of a forehead slapper...of course! But without you showing and explaining, that fix would never have occurred to me. Thanks!
Really clever technique. Thank you for sharing.
Such à clever trick for à perfect bind off! Thank you for sharing.
I knew this was great advice when I saw it the first time, but I couldn't remember it. I was so happy to come back to it for my current project with bind off for the neckline. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Thank you for a great tutorial. I've been knitting for more years than I care to remember and this proves the point that we never stop learning. I hit the subscribe button 😍
Glad it was helpful!
@@RoxanneRichardson could you do a video on how to avoid gaps for casting on in the middle of a row
So helpful. I have a favourite pattern (Richmond Wristies, on Ravelry) created by the owner of my LYS, Milli, in which the bind off and cast on forms a gorgeous pattern but I was frustrated by the loops of yarn. I tried KTBL on the next row and it helped a little but didn't eliminate the problem. Now sorted in time for me to knit a pair for a good friend who has requested a pair for her upcoming zero birthday in January. As always, thank you, Roxanne!
Wow thank you so much for this video, I've learnt something new.
This was a brilliant teaching. I had to start the bind off using a new ball of wool as per my instructions, but still used this technique you showed. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for sharing this informative video. I can now improve my knitting.
Brilliant! Another application for this is dog sweaters - I was just knitting one in the round and had to bind off and cast on in the middle of a row for the leg holes.
I worked the bind-off row using her technique and it looks very good however, how did you cast-on the next row without getting sloppy corners?
Thank you for sharing. There are so many techniques in knitting it's so intriguing vs crocheting and still being fairly new to knitting, I want to continue to learn more. Don't get me wrong I still love to crochet and one day like to incorporate both. Respectfully, Donna
I subscribed to your videos today but I have watched them before, Nd since and find them very useful. I decided to join. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You are great!!
Thank you this so helpful and will use this on my next project! I recommend a tutorial on backward loop cast on for sleeves and how to prevent sleeve holes at pickup, again thank you for this technique!
Thanks Rox - brilliant!
So easy, so simple! Thank you!
Thank you, thank you. So much nicer for my pocket opening!
Dear roxee how cool ideas u thought. Great job Allah bless u. And may u live a long healthy life.
Thank you SO much for this!
BRILLIANT TECHNIQUE 👍🏻😍👍🏻 Vickie
Thank you very much! Very helpful!
Super helpful! Thank you!!
I been looking for this f video def saving it this time
Very Good! Well explained, thank you!
You are welcome!
Brilliant!!
Problem solved. This always bothered me but I never really tried to solve the problem. Thanks for the help.
Clever technique - thank you . . .
This is so helpful, thanks so much!
You're so welcome!
When she showed us the technique I was just like “genius wow genius!”
wish this video had come out when I was knitting a little cap sleeve vest for my friend's baby. the bound off stitches for the armhole had the gaps =/ now I know how to fix them next time!
Very good!
Very helpful!
Brilliant!
Thank you 🌷
I am knitting a balaclava. This video helps a lot with the bind off row. Now I need help also with the cast on in the middle of the next row. I also want to avoid strangled and pulled corners. Any ideas? Thanks.
Brilliant technique, explained in wonderful detail. But I'm impatient enough to wish I hadn't had to wait to the 8th minute to watch what the video description promised.
The video description includes timestamped links to each section, with a brief description of what is included in each section. You can also use your L key to jump quickly through a video, and the J key to jump backwards.
Ha! Thanks :) It was in the "Show More", and I missed it. Next time I'll know.
Excellent
Thank you. Your videos are so helpful. Does this work on the wrong side too?
I just learned something about regular bind off that I never knew, and I haven't even gotten to the point of your video. I didn't know that you didn't knit and bind off the last Stitch oh my gosh!
You have to knit the last stitch, in order to bind off the 2nd to last stitch. You just can't bind it off. Some people fasten off that last loop (bring the yarn tail through it), but because of how the chains are seated from the center of one stitch and the center of the next, fastening off causes that last loop to extend really far to the left. If you cut the tail and enlarge the last loop until the tail pulls out, it won't stick out so far.
Hi. I would really like to see a video on doing a stretchy cast-on for twisted rib. I can’t ever get my cast-on edge to look neat on regular or twisted ribbing. Thanks!
WoW!!! Thank You. ❤️🌹👍👏
I would also buy this book!
Brilliant
Thank you !
You're welcome!
I am thinking instead of passing the make 1 stitch over the 11 th stitch ,what would happen if we were to knit together11 and m1 stitch, will try it and see .Thank you so much ,all your videos are wonderful.
🌻🌼very good 🤩🤩
Wow! Does your brain hurt?! Never would have thought of that! Very cool!
How would you do it if you are binding off on the purl side or wrong side? Thanks.
I love your finesse technique for binding-off in the middle of a row. I am currently knitting Bernat Pet Sweater and am using your technique for the leg holes however, how do I work the cast-on row using the finesse technique to avoid holes?
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2019.
AMAZING A VERY PROFESSIONAL CORNER My necklines always have a gap😁😁😁 you are truly a blessing to me. I must try it on a swatch. I've got a request and a question please. I have never achieved a V neck band. The pattern mentions to place MIDDLE STITCH on a holder. My finshed result ends up with uneven lumps in the ribbing. If you have the time I would be truly grateful for your help.
Thanks for all your super great videos. Thanks for sharing and caring. 🍾🍾🍾💕👍👍👍
That's a great idea for a video. I will add it to the list!
Thanks!
You bet!
You are my problem solver!
