Pleaseeee guys make more vids on working with multiple colours the Norwegian style, the method is just too comfortable for me and your the only guys i could find using it 🥺
How to do 3 colors in one row without getting yarn all twisted. I saw one of your videos with 2 colors and no twisting of yarn, but how to knit more than 2 colors in a row. i am knitting the tea cozy from your book. thank you!
As always, I love your tutorials. I do a lot of colorwork, but am never happy with the way my colors show through on the right side of my work - even though I know this trick in not doing the floats on top of each other. My ultimate knitting goal though is to knit as well as Arne. ❤️
Arne purls different than I do. I learned from my Norwegian grandma an I don’t do that many twists. Does it matter? I’ve been knitting for more than 50 years and I think my things look ok.
Thank you for this great video! I am learning new things all the time while watching your videos! I had no idea you need to make sure your floats are twisted in a different spot on each row. I'm new at colorwork and it is sooo much fun! Thanks for the tip! Have a lovely day you two! Sharon :)
Thank you both for a clear description and instruction on how to carry floats. The inside of my work will be much tidier now and I won’t snag one when putting a sweater on!
Hi boys! Love your video, as always, I learn so much from you. I have a question though. I have just started knitting properly, and I have learned how to do the Norwegian purl from you, Arne, in another video, but in my current project, I have to do regular P3Tog stitches. While this is easy to do in both English and "regular" continental styles, I can't get enough motion to twist around and pick up the working yarn when I try to do it Norwegian style. Any advice? Thanks, as always!
Thank you once again for another informative episode. Always interesting and so talented!.... One comment and I don’t know if this a TH-cam feature or the way the blog is filmed. Often you show beautiful photos at the end your episodes but lately they are obscured by “annoying” (because I want to see the images) suggestions as to what to watch next.... Is there a way of putting these on the last screen shot or not at all (as TH-cam show you these anyway)? But thank you for all your information always 🌿
Thanks for letting us know, we understand what you mean. I think this is a TH-cam thing, but we will let our team know about it and maybe they can take consideration to this in the future, when we edit the films.
ARNE & CARLOS 😊 Thank you! You live in such a beautiful house and area. A pity not to be able to see what you are showing us, as on the end of the instructive podcasts. Tak! 🌿
Ah I wanted to know if twisting over or under mattered and this helped immensely!! Just started my first fair isle hat after years of knitting because I prefer color changing yarn over fair isle. This helped so much! Thank you!!
My first color work project is your pattern REDD BARNA - Unisex Jumper. I am having troubles keeping the design after I reach the bind off point and start decreasing for the reglan. We, the newbies, need a video. I am learning so much but can’t find any videos that shows that to us.
Hello! Thankyou so much for this helpful video! I am a new knitter and have become obsessed with it! I have only knit top down sweaters in a single colour so far, so I am very excited to try some colour work! I have found some patterns which I just adore, but some of these are knit bottom up! Maybe you could do a video about the difference between knitting top-down and bottom-up, and why some patterns are done these ways? Is there a benefit/negative to approach!? Thanks again!
Can you demonstrate twine knitting? It's an old old Norwegian style of knitting where u twist the yarn before making the stitch..... I'd like to see it on video.. Thx you..joy
What a revelation! the slow down button is amazing. Arne and Carlos you never cease to amaze me. Your knitting brings back memories of the intricate jumpers my mother used to knit for us, she was from a place called Modena in Italy and enjoyed her skiing of course the jumpers were always very bright and colourful with some beautiful designs, and she never used a pattern.
Ok, this was actually kind of spooky that your subject was catching floats. I only recently got up enough nerve to try stranded colorwork, and just last night was complaining to myself about the back of my work looking messy, and some color poking through to the front! You must be mind readers! THANK YOU for all your help.
Arne, I love watching you knit and purl, especially purl. I am a throw knitter and am trying to learn to how to hold and thread the yarn from the left when doing purl stitches. Thank goodness for the "setting" button which let me slow the speed to .25. I could then see how you hold the yarn in back over the left finger as if you're knitting and then you go back and as you make a purl you go back and hook the thread from the finger, wrap it around the needle and bring it back through the stitch as a purl. Working from the left hand is awkward for this throw knitter and being able to see your needle and finger movement in slow motion really helped me understand your technique. BTW, I love all your videos! You two are fab!
Hello Arne & Carlos, I have a question: I know how to catch the floats, but my issue is how can I DO NOT STACK the floats on top of each other vertically in each round?
Q&A.. maybe on your next Q&A I wonder if you two have considered “project kits”( example: Wool and the Gang sells kits at Joanns, or something like the yarn/project monthly subscriptions)? I live in Florida, and yes it’s always hot here 99% of the year...but when it does get cold it’s a very bone chilling, wet/humid cold. My daughter and I love wearing sweaters (year round believe it or not) scarves, etc. Her high school is always too cold, even when it’s in the 90-100 degrees out she easily wears her beloved sweaters :) I’m sure it would take a lot of time you two don’t have , but I bet you would make a fortune. Kits could set you up where you could knit something for yourself for a change , or finish up some UFO’s 😂😂
Thank you for the weekly videos! This one will get us started practicing for Knit Stars 3 and the Master class you two will be presenting. I love watching Arne's technique. I always see something new or different. XX
Arne your expertise as a knitter is a joy to watch, as master craftsman at work. I really enjoyed your post tonight Arne and Carlos, you both bring us all so much each week. A huge thank you to you both. Sending you warmest hugs and loves always. Dorothy xxxxxxxxxx🙋🏻😘❤️
Spring is in that beautiful room with all of the plants and planters and dish collection. I look forward to and enjoy your videos tremendously. Also one can derive much more than just knitting information from each visit with Arne&Carlos. 😍😁
Great as usual, thanks guys! Question: are you able to explain how to convert any pattern, to be able to knit in the round? Look forward to your next video, Jan
I just finished my 3rd Christmas 🎄 ball and I floated at 4 stitches and repeated at the same spot multiple rounds 😳 I will do better on my next ball 😊👍🏝🌊🌋
Curious if you carry a float on a row that doesn't use that color at all, or do you bring that color up the side. For example on that sweater you showed I saw a row that was all color, no black line at all.
And I am, as always, your avid viewer .... just started this very afternoon knitting a pair of socks with Arne & Carlos yarn in Vinje ... beautiful colours 🍷🍷🙋🏼💐
Hello,boys!Yes,I understood..Good explanation..It is Norwegian pattern..I knitted this pattern very years ago..And I crochet last time by method of intarsia..welcome to me!And I watched works by Kaffe Fassett..He knit,and he is a king of intarsia..Very nice ..I admire his design..
I am doing my first stranded knitting project, in the round. I am a little confused about the idea of three stitches and then catch and in the next row two stitches and then catch or something like that. My confusion seems to be that the pattern has different amounts of color stitches in the different rows. So I am not quite sure how to work this out. Maybe it just takes some practice and experimentation on my part, perhaps my uncertainty is my novice status.
Watching this 4 years age original release but the twisting in the back... is it along the same line of intarsia where you put the old color over the new color and carry on?
I love that you showed how to do purl side with Norwegian style knitting that was the best demonstration. But you did the knit side too fast and I couldn’t clearly see how you did the twist.
4 years later, and you guys are still helping out people. I did not know, that he floatcatches shouldn't be above eachother and couldnt figure out why the yarns were always shining through. I will also try your random method of twisting to "give up" color dominance.
Do you knit in your ends as you knit or sew them in after the project is done? I'd sure like to see a video of putting a sweater together. Why are do some insist on knitting a sweater flat and I see so many knitted in the round? What are the benefits and downfalls of both ways??
I knitted little sheep on the leg part of my sock. Sadly the yarn carried in the inside does not have the same stretch as the rest of the sock so now I cant get them on my foot. How do I prevent that. Do you have a trick?
I would love to see video on doing the stranded color work on the birds. How to keep the tension with only 14 stitches on double pointed needles. I find that my stitches are either too tight or too loose.
Thank you for this video! I have been playing with your Quarantine blocks and catching floats the way most knitters recommend and kept seeing the the colors peeking through. I remembered that Arne showed how he did this and tried his method. I couldn't be happier with the results. Its a bit more fiddly with my style of knitting stranded, but well worth the effort.
Yes, that is "carry on". I really enjoy these videos of yours. I just love that urn that you have your flowers in on the table there, it is really pretty. I purchased some patterns of yours, I can't wait to get started on them. I'm working on a few other things right now,as soon as I am done I'll work on yours. Thank you for the video.
I love all of your videos! And, appreciate the time you put into them. It has been so much fun to see your home, the land around your home and all of your technique videos. Thank you and I look forward to seeing all that you will be bringing to us. ❤️🐑🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🐑❤️
Working stranded colourwork on the purl-side is a pain >_< im currently working on a sweater... was so happy when the coloured pattern section began, until i had to start working in rows >_< it is so slow -.-
Oh WOW! Dizzy my head is spinning! There is so much I don’t know about knitting 🤪... I haven’t a clue what you are talking about...even after watching you doing it 😳...I think I’ll stick with Crocheting....I love listening though 😂😂😂 😊
I can't really get into such sophisticated patterning but I learn a lot from you and I so enjoy the respectful, charming and loving way that you relate to your work and to each other. You two are so precious and dear and provide for me a respite of peace and pleasure in your company.
Hello guys, seeing the dark UFO reminded me about your video about UFO's and the patchwork skirt from your fashion days. I remembered that I had thought how interesting it would be for you to show and tell your fashion work in a video...maybe an idea for the future? xx
Just taken up knitting and ended up with a baby blanket which, on the reverse, looks like it has cowboy fringing! Wish I'd watched this first! 🙂 Absolutely love that candle holder, by the way!
Can you please show me how a pattern can be done with 2 colors in a seed stitch, because I really don't like how much the stockinette curls? Or a garter, but I think the garter stitch can make a pattern like you are showing look weird. A diamond pattern or a zigzag is nicer in a flat stitch. Thank you!!! (just subscribed and I enjoy your dual presentations.
do you think twisting has advantages over keeping yarns APART all the time so never having yarns twist? You can keep yarns apart wtih continental, Portuguese and English method----not ever have to remember to twist one way or the other
Don't you end up with a tangled mess? Or do you just untwist your working yarn regularly? You inspired me to do color work over the winter but I'll admit- tension is my bugaboo.
as an English style knitter this looks really odd however when I slowed it down I do catch my threads the same its just a different method. I'm trying to learn your style of knitting but I am too slow still for a full project. Doing a colour work jumper for my daughter at the moment.
Panicked there for a second when you purled as I couldn't keep up what you did there. Then I realized it was the Norwegian purl. Which I learned last week 🤣 So I clearly need more practice with that one lol
can you please do one where you show catching the floats from the right side? I've gotten so frustrated trying to follow what other people are showing on YT.. their techniques are just not working for me, so I would really like to learn yours properly, but I can't tell how to do it from the front
I did not get the technique the first time and looked for the "wheel" to slow down the video. Well, I found the video and it does make a huge difference in understanding the technique that Arne was demonstrating. I was so focused on the technique, but when my concentration relaxed and I then went to the general video it sounded like you two were smashed. I had to start laughing. 😂
Yes, we always say finishing touches is what makes the garment, must never be skipped! Our episode on steaming/blocking will be published in May, so stay tuned!
how come i cannot find videos on how to carry 5 or 6 different colour changes for floats. there are alot out there in patterns. i am doing a reindeer stocking right now. please help with tutorial. thanks very much.
That's probably because we are knitters from Norway and in our Scandinavian culture, traditionally, we do not knit with that many colours - usually 2 or 3. Maybe you need to look for tutorials on fair Isle knitting - Fair Isle is the knitting style done in the Shetclands and is a bit different from Norwegian colour work.
How do you catch the floats when there are purls on the right side of the work and in the round? I always wind up with gaps in my knitting when it comes to simply twisting the strands to keep the floats on the wrong side.
can you do a tutorial on steeks? a lot of people don't know what they are so they won't knit any garments that call for them. They also don't understand when they are used and why. Also please show how to cut and reinforce so the garment doesn't unravel
Pleaseeee guys make more vids on working with multiple colours the Norwegian style, the method is just too comfortable for me and your the only guys i could find using it 🥺
How to do 3 colors in one row without getting yarn all twisted. I saw one of your videos with 2 colors and no twisting of yarn, but how to knit more than 2 colors in a row. i am knitting the tea cozy from your book. thank you!
Hi Joan, it is difficult not to get your yarn twisted.
@@ARNECARLOS so funny! I am learning...much love, God bless!
OMG - that is why the little thread pokes thru! :-) Thank you for the lesson - love your videos.
As always, I love your tutorials. I do a lot of colorwork, but am never happy with the way my colors show through on the right side of my work - even though I know this trick in not doing the floats on top of each other. My ultimate knitting goal though is to knit as well as Arne. ❤️
I used that time function on TH-cam so I could learn Norwegian purl! Thanks for this one.
Arne purls different than I do. I learned from my Norwegian grandma an I don’t do that many twists. Does it matter? I’ve been knitting for more than 50 years and I think my things look ok.
Norwegian purl is amaaaaaazing! I just studied it last night and it has changed my knitting life!
Thank you for this great video! I am learning new things all the time while watching your videos! I had no idea you need to make sure your floats are twisted in a different spot on each row. I'm new at colorwork and it is sooo much fun! Thanks for the tip! Have a lovely day you two!

Can you demonstrate twine knitting? It's an old old Norwegian style of knitting where u twist the yarn before making the stitch.....

Hi Joy, thank you for this tutorial suggestion.
Wow...simple! I look forward to seeing you two! Xoxo
I have found that if I alternate twisting forwards and backwards, my yarn tangles less
👍

I would call the pattern Harlequin 😉
That's a nice name

Great as usual, thanks guys! Question: are you able to explain how to convert any pattern, to be able to knit in the round?

Lovely truly Lovely 🍎🍎Love you guys 💕 Thanks oh I would Love to see Lurex or strung sequins through you works of art ? Danke Marianne
How about "Balls from Around the World"? 🌏🌍🌎
I'm doing Melanie Berg Maivember Shawl can your method be used on this Shawl Thanks Marianne 😊
I just finished my 3rd Christmas 🎄 ball and I floated at 4 stitches and repeated at the same spot multiple rounds 😳 I will do better on my next ball 😊👍🏝🌊🌋

I'm working on my first Icelandic sweater. Could you please do a video on a bottom up sweater. It's a little confusing for me.
Still learning to do stranded knitting....
Love to watch....you make it look so easy....deb
would love a tutorial on colorwork... the Persian dreams pattern!!
And I am, as always, your avid viewer .... just started this very afternoon knitting a pair of socks with Arne & Carlos yarn in Vinje ... beautiful colours 🍷🍷🙋🏼💐

Would love info on what yarn was used for that lovely sweater shown. Also is there a pattern available? Feeling ambitious!
Why on the earth do you knit in that dificult way ??? Not talking about carrieng the float, but the way you knit !
Thank you, very clear instructions and very enjoyable and encouraging.
You do it so fast I didn’t even learned anything. Too much talking!!!!
4 years later, and you guys are still helping out people. I did not know, that he floatcatches shouldn't be above eachother and couldnt figure out why the yarns were always shining through. I will also try your random method of twisting to "give up" color dominance.

I learn so much from you two- knitting is easier now!
Great to hear!
I've always carried short floats and been frustrated by them sometimes showing through. Thank you so much!
You are welcome!
I have the same colour of primrose/primula as that pink one in the pot! Mine is in my garden.
Can you explain in doing color work what it means by the dominant color?
I would love to see video on doing the stranded color work on the birds. How to keep the tension with only 14 stitches on double pointed needles. I find that my stitches are either too tight or too loose.
Love your videos! Thank you, you guys make knitting so relaxing and fun!
Help, I purchased a sweater that has long floats. Is there a way to fix or protect them so my purchase lasts longer?
Would you carry the floats in the same way when knitted colorwork socks?
Thank you for this video! I have been playing with your Quarantine blocks and catching floats the way most knitters recommend and kept seeing the the colors peeking through. I remembered that Arne showed how he did this and tried his method. I couldn't be happier with the results. Its a bit more fiddly with my style of knitting stranded, but well worth the effort.
We are so glad that you found this method useful!
Thank you! Wondered how to eliminate that annoying little line of the thread showing through and now I know!
Yes, that is "carry on". I really enjoy these videos of yours. I just love that urn that you have your flowers in on the table there, it is really pretty. I purchased some patterns of yours, I can't wait to get started on them. I'm working on a few other things right now,as soon as I am done I'll work on yours. Thank you for the video.
You are welcome Alicia!
IK vind het nog erg groot de steken ,Als je Fair Isle toepast is het dan niet kleiner de steken aan de achterkant gr leoni vrolijk Nederland
I am learning how to knit what l would like to know is can you knit a sweater from the bottom to the top if so how ???
the criss cross design is called harlequin pattern . just saying =)
I have a question i stretch as i do color work but still puckers is there a way to show how to avoid this?
can you make a video describing the tubular cast on in the round?
I love all of your videos! And, appreciate the time you put into them. It has been so much fun to see your home, the land around your home and all of your technique videos. Thank you and I look forward to seeing all that you will be bringing to us. ❤️🐑🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🐑❤️
Thanks for your lovely comment!
thanks guys for the tip : how to adjust the speed.
Working stranded colourwork on the purl-side is a pain >_< im currently working on a sweater... was so happy when the coloured pattern section began, until i had to start working in rows >_< it is so slow -.-
Don’t give up
Great video which has helped many of us!! Now, I need to learn how to catch floats from the purl side Arne style. Have you made a video about it?
We have not
It’s so helpful that you showed what happens when you do it the WRONG way....very visual!
Oh WOW! Dizzy my head is spinning! There is so much I don’t know about knitting 🤪... I haven’t a clue what you are talking about...even after watching you doing it 😳...I think I’ll stick with Crocheting....I love listening though 😂😂😂 😊
Thank you for listening!
Great, helpful, thank you-I am humbled by your skill.
Thank you so mucn Colin!

We have done some, you can find them
in this playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLElv_tSbHW3qn8RKkX2Zu8Kug2mKGcjVo.html
Stagger the float twists. Great suggestion.
If its full of floats wouldnt it be better to do double knit instead?
Just taken up knitting and ended up with a baby blanket which, on the reverse, looks like it has cowboy fringing! Wish I'd watched this first! 🙂 Absolutely love that candle holder, by the way!
Thank you and welcome to the knitting world!
can you also do a tutorial on continental knitting?
Can you please show me how a pattern can be done with 2 colors in a seed stitch, because I really don't like how much the stockinette curls? Or a garter, but I think the garter stitch can make a pattern like you are showing look weird. A diamond pattern or a zigzag is nicer in a flat stitch. Thank you!!! (just subscribed and I enjoy your dual presentations.
Hi, thank you for the suggestion
My grandmother steamed ironed that way!
Hi, enjoyed the video. Just wondering, do you a computer programme like adobe illustrator for making your colour work designs?
We use a computer program.
🎶Come on Baby, let’s do the twist!🎶
Mom Grandma I love knit theme songs - that‘s what I call it. This one is brilliant, thank you so much! 😃💃
Hi Arnet&Carlos, IM FROM Argentina ,they gave me a skein for socks of their desings.My question is if I can start wiht thetoe?.Tnks and may admiration
Hi, they are ment to be started from the top, not the toe.
do you think twisting has advantages over keeping yarns APART all the time so never having yarns twist? You can keep yarns apart wtih continental, Portuguese and English method----not ever have to remember to twist one way or the other
We find it hard to keep the yarns apart all them time. They get tangled, but each method has its advantages.
Don't you end up with a tangled mess? Or do you just untwist your working yarn regularly? You inspired me to do color work over the winter but I'll admit- tension is my bugaboo.
Hi Alison, we have made a tutorial on how to untwist: th-cam.com/video/HO-UtQmY0pw/w-d-xo.html
please do a video on knitting a bunny.
as an English style knitter this looks really odd however when I slowed it down I do catch my threads the same its just a different method. I'm trying to learn your style of knitting but I am too slow still for a full project. Doing a colour work jumper for my daughter at the moment.
Happy knitting!
Panicked there for a second when you purled as I couldn't keep up what you did there. Then I realized it was the Norwegian purl. Which I learned last week 🤣 So I clearly need more practice with that one lol
Great!
I learnt something! Thanks
Traducción Español😔
can you please do one where you show catching the floats from the right side? I've gotten so frustrated trying to follow what other people are showing on YT.. their techniques are just not working for me, so I would really like to learn yours properly, but I can't tell how to do it from the front
Hi, we will look into that.
olá amigos ARNE & CARLOS como vai essa dupla de tricô crochê .
I did not get the technique the first time and looked for the "wheel" to slow down the video. Well, I found the video and it does make a huge difference in understanding the technique that Arne was demonstrating. I was so focused on the technique, but when my concentration relaxed and I then went to the general video it sounded like you two were smashed. I had to start laughing. 😂
It is very useful and also makes anything ridiculously fun!
You two are wonderful! I’d like to learn about blocking. Is it important? How do you block? Thanks!
Yes, we always say finishing touches is what makes the garment, must never be skipped! Our episode on steaming/blocking will be published in May, so stay tuned!

Thank you!
Never thought of Alternating the rows my floats are terrible why do that dangle and dropped Thanks Marianne 😊
You are welcome Marianne!
just like building a brick wall. can't stack the next row exactly on the bricks below. if you do it, the wall will crumble
Thank you for your comment!
how come i cannot find videos on how to carry 5 or 6 different colour changes for floats. there are alot out there in patterns. i am doing a reindeer stocking right now. please help with tutorial. thanks very much.
That's probably because we are knitters from Norway and in our Scandinavian culture, traditionally, we do not knit with that many colours - usually 2 or 3. Maybe you need to look for tutorials on fair Isle knitting - Fair Isle is the knitting style done in the Shetclands and is a bit different from Norwegian colour work.
How do you catch the floats when there are purls on the right side of the work and in the round? I always wind up with gaps in my knitting when it comes to simply twisting the strands to keep the floats on the wrong side.
Good question, maybe we have to do a revisit of this
can you do a tutorial on steeks? a lot of people don't know what they are so they won't knit any garments that call for them. They also don't understand when they are used and why. Also please show how to cut and reinforce so the garment doesn't unravel
We have done several tutorials on steeking. Check out the playlist section in our channel site
