Oh my goodness, your video changes the color of both K & P stitches and that's what I was looking for for a long time! It's amazing and thank you so much ❤️

[@lwuuus]

Thank you, this is just what I needed.

[@user-eu4re2rg5e]

Thanks for making it so easy to understand

[@typhoidmary5061]

Thanks so much for this!

[@lindamanas6735]

Very helpful but would have been easier to follow if background had been white and the pattern in blue!

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

Do you mean for the chart? Sorry! I didn't realize it would be hard to see. I can try uploading a different version to the blog post. Let me see.

[@catherinecarter8987]

Great tutorial thank you ❤

[@jessicae8083]

Great video..and you didn't ramble on and on. Thank you!

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

You're welcome! 💜

[@Breeze_1E]

Thank you 😀

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

I'm glad it helped you! 💜 you're so welcome!

[@hwolovely1203]

Thank you. This makes sense. I want to make a cell phone holder for my colleagues for Christmas. The color pattern didn't make sense to me.

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

I'm so glad it helped you understand how to read them! 💜

[@meleahb.1765]

hello! is this pattern type only applicable if you're making something that you cannot see the back of? im trying to colour change a scarf and would like it to look neat on both sides... is this possible?

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

Hello, yes for the most part it's a one sided pattern. It's possible this one could look ok on the backside because there isn't a lot of skipping stitches from one colour to the other. It may look great like that, but best if your tension is the same throughout. Anyone who's done this chart, how's the back look?

[@Hunlover123601]

you could double the width of the pattern and then sew the scarf shut with the two sides together so it is basically in the round so you cant see the inside ❤

[@TheGirl-lp6bs]

Can this only apply to stockinette stitch? Thanks for the tutorial❤

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

I'd be curious to see the patter in garter. I'm sure it would look differently, but should still work.

[@TheGirl-lp6bs]

@@PurpleRoseCrafts Thank you. I'll try and see how it looks ☺️

[@pbnjenni_sandwich]

I'm confused about the first white row. The chart makes me think it should be one row but you did two. Am I missing something there?

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

Yes, I wanted to keep my yarn on the right side when I put it down. I'm not sure if I explained that, and I apologize if I didn't. It just made the white line along the bottom of the pattern a little thicker. You can definitely cut it at the end of the first row, and start again for the pattern section if you want to follow the chart exactly. I hope that helps!

[@foggyqubti6288]

Why are you calling the white squares blue....it's confusing

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

Hi sorry for the delay. When I knit them, they were knit with the blue yarn.

[@florencecathcart9588]

Very confusing. You say you're going to pick up the white but then you knit with the blue. As you point to the chart you say three white while pointing to three blue. Is one of us color blind?

[@florencecathcart9588]

When you point to the chart, you point to the bue and say three white, then you point to the white and say blue. WTH? So you're saying the blue on the chart is actually white and the white on the chart is Blue? So confusing!

[@PurpleRoseCrafts]

Yes, the colour on the chart could be anything. You decide what colour's to knit where. I did mine opposite of the colour's on the chart I made. Sorry if I didn't explain that in the video.
