    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. 😕

      it sure is neat. Though, it's maybe not the most vvversatile increase for all beginner projects :)

    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!

      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...)

    Very interesting knitting method. Thank you so much for showing how to do this. What is this pattern can be used for?

    • @nimbleneedlestwo
      @nimbleneedlestwo  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.

    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!

    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?

      @nimbleneedlestwo  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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?

    • @katja-elina
      @katja-elina 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      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.

      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 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. Techniques and patterns are also meant to be used by everyone. Copyright and patent law acknowledge that fact.
      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. Here's one example: th-cam.com/video/wBpXwsreuq0/w-d-xo.html

      That is quite disturbing about your content being stolen . Your videos along with a few others are commonly linked because the nature of them (hints, tricks, techniques (alternate) , close up demonstrations and reviews . All being very recognizable.

    I think you miswrote the video title? You wrote "knit", instead of "knot" as you say in the video.
