I followed you instructions and it was a success on my first try. I have tried a few way to start the ribber and your instructions are the best. I love you work and thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Hi Elena, I love your videos very much, I do have a question. Why do you do the ribber lever back to I before the 3 circulair rows on 1x1 rib and when doing 2x2 rib you do the lever to I after the 3 circulair rows? Thank you
thank you so much! you have great attention to detail 😊 It really depends on the yarn and how the machine feels when knitting those rows if that makes sense. I wouldn't say there is a rule that can be applied to all types of ribbing and should always be followed. You need to test and see, ideally those first rows should be the tightest possible and if the yarn allows to keep the lever to (II) if not change to (I) so the tension is a little bit looser. Hope this helps 🤗
Why do you do 3 rows of circular? Is it for aesthetic purposes or just out of pure habit? I've been taught to always do my first row from left to right, so I have to do only 2 circulars. Lovely video, really important to know your ribs.
This is how I learned, most people I worked with do it like that as well. I guess it is up to you how you prefer, but I think 3 rows is the usual 🤗🤗 Thank you! that is soo true!!
Whenever I knit in rib, my stitches on the ribber bed don't seem to knit all the way? Even when I put the outer ones in D position, I have the appropriate weights attached, I'm not sure why it always messes up and drops stitches?
I tried this now a couple of times with no succsess :( Drop the stitches on the main bed?? I do not understand. Does this mean there are no stitches o the main bed or the ribber? Needles look all empty
Ohh nooo:( sorry to hear that you are struggling :( that means that there will be stitches on ribber bed only, make sure that the ribber bed carriage is set to not knit and drop the stitches on main bed. Let me know how it goes 🤗
just transfer all the stitches on main bed as normally, some needles will have 2 stitches on them so a good idea is to pull the needles all the way out before knitting rows to make it easier 😊
@@Knitology1x1 Thanks for the great video. At 0:13 you show part of the removal of the waste yarn but you don't completely remove it. Do you just pull it out of the ribbing after that? Or will the bottom row of ribbing start to unravel if you just pull the waste yarn out?
Thank you! Refreshingly concise and professional instructions for the best looking rib I have seen achieved on a knitting machine.
Aww thanks so much! So happy to hear that 🙏♥️
Just tried your new cast on and it worked out brilliantly, thank you for this new tip. I will be doing this new cast on from now on.
aww so happy to have helped 🥰
I love this video. You make the sample and the instructions both so tidy. There is no waste of time.
so happy to hear that 🥰
Thank you for this, I've been faffing about for a couple of days trying to knit a K2 P2 rib. Great video and so appreciated.
Glad it was helpful!♥️

thank you !!so happy you were successful!! 🎊
I ALWAYS start any ribbing with waste yarn and a row of ravel cord. The edges are neat, clean and less of the "Y" effect.
Yeah, many people prefer that. I never used but I might try ❤️🤗
I want to see the ribbing with the comb
Excellent video. Very clear. Thank you.
Thank you 😊 Glad it was helpful!
Gracias por compartir. Explica muy claro. Y su voz es muy agradable.
Gracias 😊
Multumesc mult pt clipul asta!❤
cu mare drag ❤️
Very helpful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! 🤗
Someday do these techniques on a Studio/Silver Reed/Knitmaster machine.
I got a Silver reed machine recently ✨ hope to find some time to practice soon!

@@aryaprincess2479 Thanks for sharing that, always nice to learn how other people do things 🤗
Great video! I'm curious as to why the main bed sts are dropped?
I am not entirely sure but I think it’s so that the waste yarn can be removed easily. 🤔😊
Whenever I knit in rib, my stitches on the ribber bed don't seem to knit all the way? Even when I put the outer ones in D position, I have the appropriate weights attached, I'm not sure why it always messes up and drops stitches?
I would say that the tension might be too tight if that happens 🤔
😍😍👏👏 thank you to explain that
You’re welcome 😊
Hello! Anybody know a way to cast on 2-2 ribbing on a circular machine? I know the 1-1 method but can't apply it to do a 2-2... thanks for your help.
Hello , I don’t know sorry… never used a circular machine 🤔🤗
I tried this now a couple of times with no succsess :( Drop the stitches on the main bed?? I do not understand. Does this mean there are no stitches o the main bed or the ribber? Needles look all empty

Can you show how to do these for a single bed machine like the lk150
you can only do these with a ribber, to do such ribs on a single bed, any type, you must unravel and manually reform stitches. hope this helps 😊
Hey Elena; what do you do about transferring the 2x1 upto the main bed after you finish ribbing?
just transfer all the stitches on main bed as normally, some needles will have 2 stitches on them so a good idea is to pull the needles all the way out before knitting rows to make it easier 😊
Thank you so much!
🤗🤗❤️
Hi! What knitting machine are you using?? THANKS!!
hi! brother kh891 ribber bed kr850 🤗
How do U remove the waste yarn,from main work, do you cut the yarn?
you can see in the video from 0:13 how I cut it 🤗
@@Knitology1x1 Thanks for the great video. At 0:13 you show part of the removal of the waste yarn but you don't completely remove it. Do you just pull it out of the ribbing after that? Or will the bottom row of ribbing start to unravel if you just pull the waste yarn out?

Also co asking 😂
Is it rude to add a time stamp for me to refer back to?
2 X 1 starts at 6:28
不小心卡針了怎麼解決
removing the carriages carefully...
Please Machine price
Depending on the machine they can be from £50 upwards. I paid around 250 for mine for both beds 🤗
