yeah, I've seen some videos as well and thought I'd add a nice high resolution tutorial to the mix. I've even seen one lady claiming a copyright for this technique (which is wild; and entirely not legally possible but well...)
you can use this increase whenever you feel it might look good. There are no specific patterns that instantly come to my mind. But it can be a great way to increase 1x1 ribbing, for example.
Grazie Norman!bellissima soluzione.non ho capito se si può fare solo sul lato dx del lavoro (mi sembra impossibile)!mi puoi spiegare perché non hai fatto il campione con gli aumenti simmetrici .cosa non ho capito?
Yes. You knit the increase on the stitch that is above the left side stitch of the previous incrsease. It's easier if you use stitch markers. For the right leaning increase line you make the increase on the stitch left side of the marker and for left leaning increase right side of the marker. The increase stitch is symmetrical.

@@NYKnitter I just had a look. how fun! But it wouldn't matter who was first, really. Knitting techniques cannot be copyrighted. That's why Elizabeth Zimmerman coined the term "unventing" because it is very likely that two knitters "invent" the same technique independently. And history has shown this has happened multiple times over. Nobody showed me the way I purl, yet I know for a fact that hundreds of knitters purl the same way I do, despite me making the technique up myself because I was so frustrated with the way I was shown in school.

She's welcome to trademark the name she gave this technique (but I don't see she did that) and her spoken word/text is copyrighted as well. Not that I used it. Personally speaking, I find it a bit self-aggrandizing. It's not Elsa's k2tog, Marie-Anne's SSK, or Paul's M1L. Even Elizabeth Zimmerman didn't add her name to the sewn bind-off (that was awarded by knitters), just like the "Magic Cast-on" really was just named that by Judy and thankful knitters awarded her the name to differentiate it. So really, if somebody adds their given name to a technique themselves, that really just makes me very angry and would be a top reason not to use it. Setting aside, that in 30 years nobody will know who these people were. Mrs. Lambert famously once tried to call a needle gauge a "Standard Filière". I doubt you even know who Mrs Lamber is...and certainly not what a standard filiére is. If I am inspired by a different video or creator, I always mention that. I feel that is only fair.

Hi Norman. I’ve never seen or heard of this increase before. Very cool! It looks great! Thanks for another great tutorial! Have a wonderful week!😊
Keep up the good work!!! Great teacher!! Your nickname could be Alfred Hitchknot!!
Very cool! I’ve never even heard of this. Looks lovely and easy to do!! I can see this being handy when my count is off and I have to fudge things. 😕
Hi Norman. Your videos are a Godsend! Whenever I need knitting advice I come to your channel. You’re an amazing teacher! Thank you for all your help.
thanks for this! beginner knitter here, I love how neat this increase looks.
it sure is neat. Though, it's maybe not the most vvversatile increase for all beginner projects :)
Thank You 😁👌😍
This is a wonderful technique, thanks for shwoing it in detail. 🙏
I've seen this increase around instagram over the last month or so. It looks very pretty. I'm eager to try it on my next project!

Very interesting knitting method. Thank you so much for showing how to do this. What is this pattern can be used for?
you can use this increase whenever you feel it might look good. There are no specific patterns that instantly come to my mind. But it can be a great way to increase 1x1 ribbing, for example.
@@nimbleneedlestwo I will try this method. I think it look very nice. Thank you.
Oh this is perfect for a project I'm planning to do soon. Is there a symbol for charting a centred single increase? Thank you!
not really...at least not that I know of.
I definitely need to see how this will look in Garter stitch. A Swatching I shall go 🎶 😂
(i find KFB is the best increase for garter stitch)
So, this increase will look the same on the left increase side of project too?
yap

hm...for practical reasons, this cannot be done on the wrong side. However, you could purl instead of knit
❤. Can it be knitted to lean left too?
Yes. You knit the increase on the stitch that is above the left side stitch of the previous incrsease. It's easier if you use stitch markers. For the right leaning increase line you make the increase on the stitch left side of the marker and for left leaning increase right side of the marker. The increase stitch is symmetrical.
@@katja-elina thank you!!
as someone else already answered, this stitch has no true lean. You just place it wherever :)
I learned this as the twin-crease by Assia Brill . I hide my yoke increases using this method
yeah, I am very sure a lot of other knitters have un-vented this technique as well. Not sure if it requires a given name in the title, tho ^^

I think you miswrote the video title? You wrote "knit", instead of "knot" as you say in the video.
oh wow. thx for that!
np, thanks for correcting it, makes iteasier to find when searching for it😊
