You rescued me! I would have had to rip out and start all over without this video, because I messed up the raglan increases on a top down sweater. Thank you!

The thing I love about you is that you know how to fix errors; and we are all going to make them. Thank you for recognizing this human factor. It makes me feel like I’m not the only one, I’m not stupid, and this error happens all the time. How normal! That’s what inspires me to keep knitting. And without the frustration…. it’s FUN! So, thank you for keeping us all knitting and enjoying. You totally rock🙏🧶❤️

I will be very surprised if I ever stop making errors in my knitting! It's so important to learn how to fix just the thing that was wrong, and not have to rip back sts that were knit perfectly fine the first time. I really does make knitting a lot more fun. :-)

Thank you! I cannot tell you how helpful your videos have been. Your approach and methodical detailed yet clear explanations have been such a great contribution to my rapid progress in knitting, and your way about it eliminates my stress and makes me jump into the waters with confidence. Thank you! you're awesome.

Merci beaucoup. You are one of a few that truly teach us how to read our work and fix with confidence ours inevitables mistakes. Hope you can keep up your pedagogic explanation. 😊

This worked! Thank you! I'm a pretty new knitter and this helped me add a M1L I forgot in the previous row without having to take two rows out. Thank you for the easy to follow video!

I always love your videos, you're so clear on how to do things and you speak at just the right tempo and knit at the right tempo to really get a chance to see. One thing I'd love is (if you don't have it yet) to see a video on tinking a M1R and M1L right after you've made it and realize you did it wrong. Thanks so much!

Thank you so much. It's amazing that no matter how long you have been a knitter or how skilled you think you are there is some new technique to learn every day. I love your videos and look forward to keep improving because of your wonderful clear teaching.

marlene weiner Thank you! One of the great things about making the videos is that I inevitably learn something, too!

This helped me so tremendously! I had dropped a m1r stitch on my first ever top down sweater. You have saved me hours of tears! ❤️

Ok so I couldn’t wait until morning, lol. I guess I watched this 6 years ago as I see my past comment. Still very helpful! Thanks Roxanne!😊

Thank you for this! This has helped me so much! I thought I could try to figure out how to fix it on my own, but I couldn't figure out how to do the twist. So simple and makes so much sense!

I can't thank you enough for this video! You've saved me a world of pain! I tried fixing it by just using common sense and I couldn't get rid of a hole I'd made by not doing a M1P properly.... now it looks perfect and it was sooooooo easy compared to the complicated convoluted way I was trying to re-knit it! Coffee coming your way. Thank you!

u rescued me thank you so much!!!!! i'll never forget it

Thank you thank you thank you for this video!!! I was completely at a loss at how to fix me shawl and you are an angel!!!

Roxanne - I enjoy your videos so much! Thank you for this one. I’m working on a sweater and moving needles I dropped two M1 stitches. I tried all kinds of combinations to get them back on the needle correctly. I was missing the twist of the first loop I picked up. You’ve saved the day!!

You came in the nick of time. I miss place a m1r. Was able to correct my mistake by undoing those stitches and moving the m1r to its correct position. It was the twisting the stitch that caused me to pause and think I'll have to rip out the rows of stitching. With your instructions, I could correct that mistake in a matter of a few minutes. Thank you so much.

Another tool for my toolkit! Thanks, Roxanne 💖

Thank you, thank you, thank you! It has taken me a couple hours to fix some mistakes in a sweater I am making (first fitted sweater ever with a yoke!) and I couldn't figure out how to fix the M1L that had fallen off. You saved me!

You saved me!!! Rox you really do rock!!

Saved me from recasting on -for the 3rd time -a complicated yoke with a ton of twisted rib and M1L. Thank you!

Just wanted to drop by 4 years after you posted this video to say that this helped me so so much! I was considering frogging 4 rows but you saved me from all that trouble! A very clear tutorial on both M1R and M1L! Thank you so much! :D

Thanks for this video! I was looking everyone to figure out how to fix this!

Thank you. Such a great and helpful video.

Absolutely brilliant Txu Saved me undoing 5 rows OML ❤👍

Soooooooooo Helpful!! Thank you! You just taught me how to save my work!

Thank u soooooo much for showing me this! Somehow I did my make 1's wrong. I have a huge gap! I'm going to try and save them using this method!! Wish me luck, and thanks so much again!!!

Excellent instruction and information. Thank you!!!

As always, just what I was looking for to fix a problem! :-) Thanks for the great instructional video

You know how after you try for a long time and finally give up and post a question? Literally two minutes later, I GOT IT!!! But thank you anyway!

Thank you!!! I messed up on a sweater sleeve and it’s 10 rounds down. This is going to save my work! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much! I was struggling and almost ripping about a huge section of my knitting YET AGAIN but now I know how to fix it instead!!!

Okay so when I first found/subscribed to your channel like a month or so ago, I was for some reason under the impression you were a sock person. I didn't realize you're just a complete national knitting treasure. Your library is a mind-blowing, comprehensive, incredibly thorough resource. Not to mention you're articulate and brilliant -- such a mathematical mind. What did you do for a living before this? Anyway, finding this video is like two weeks too late to help me now, but I'm so glad it's here for my next m1 tragedy. Intense adulation aside, you have a lifelong fan in me, Roxanne.

Wonderful explanation, as usual. Can you show what's needed to fix a missed kf&b pair of stitches in the previous round or two rounds down of a top down raglan?

Very clear and will be helpful! I’d like to know how to “read” my knitting to determine which M1 increase I last did. Unless I say “left” or “right” out loud I don’t remember! saw a hint of how in this video which I will review.

Look at the angle of the increase twist in the fabric. If it looks like \ then it was a m1L. If it looks like /, then it was a m1R.

brilliant thankyou 😊

A very useful little fix to add to my bag of tricks - Thank You!

Could you do a video on changing directions in knitting using the magic loop. I am knitting a Mohair Dickie, and the second part reads slip the next stitch to,the right hand needle, wrap the yarn to the back, and slip back onto the left hand needle. Turn your work inside out. We are changing directions of knitting...... I am having a lot of trouble doing this. Thank you. Jo-Ann

Yes I have a question for a new video. Imagine you knit a pullover on the neckline will be a u-Boat neck with two left &2 right . Before u start that you need to create the shoulder/ Neckline . My pattern tells me at a certain length I need to hold the middle stitches (44) and knit only left and right each 28 stitches. Two rows in total and here is one issue knit two together at the end of the row . I have 27 s on each side. When starting knitting over all stitches I have to put on 2 stitches each side exactly there where I had purl stitches together. I get wholes. Please help. I’m able to provide a link for the pattern in English.

There is one fix I would love to see! It seems like it should be intuitive, but my brain gets all yarned up when I get back to it. On the previous row I should NOT have done a kfb, but I did. Twice. When I get back to it, how do I let one of the sts off? Thanks so much if you can show that!

I am so grateful for this video since I am working on a garment with M1R and M1L increases that I have found an error in and need to drop back to fix. My garment is garter, not stockinette, so my question is how to be sure I am picking up the garter stitches correctly once I fix the twist of the M1 that I need to fix. Do I start my first rung pickup after fixing the twist as though I am working a "purl" - that is, when I work garter and have to drop down, I notice the rungs alternate between being in front and in back of the fabric and I think that the next rung down from the dropped stitch is in front and the one beneath that is in back, and so on. I am just trying to envision how I created the M1 in garter so I know how to proceed to pick up the rungs (from which direction) when I go to fix the entire assemblage in the column I dropped down to fix the errant M1. Any extra thoughts about this?

First, make sure the face of the fabric facing you is the one that faced you when you originally worked the increase. You know, then, that you created the m1 on a row that was knit. If you used the lifted m1 version, you will pull the ladder through the twisted loop as a knit. If you used the backwards loop version, you will pull the loop through as a purl (because it wouldn't have been worked until the following row).

This wonderful advice was just the ticket! I am all repaired now and have knitted on with confidence and thankfulness.

Thanks. This is really helpful! What if there's a M1 increase in every RS row? Does that change how I fix the M1? OR Do I make a twisted loop for every row?

@RoxanneRichardson

6 жыл бұрын

The twisted loop will be at the base of a column of sts that will otherwise be normal. So you won't have a column of sts made of only twisted loops. Each twisted loop creates a new column that grows out of it.

I knit a m1R into the slack between a backward-loop CO and existing stitch, but split the yarn, which looks terrible. The stitch above it is on the needle and is a knit stitch which was made on the next round. Could I drop down two rows to that slack and fix the m1R as in your method? The pattern is Emma, Coco Knits. I used that technique which is in the pattern on both sides of the backward-loop CO of each sleeve. The other three are perfect, and I'm so afraid of trying to fix the split stitch one as I would have to rip out two rows which would open up an opportunity to make other mistakes--and I definitely don't want to do that!

Is it possible to make an update to this excellent video regarding how to fix a dropped left lifted increase and right lifted increase? Or is it inherent in this video and maybe I don't recognize it?

@RoxanneRichardson

7 жыл бұрын

Lifted increases are done differently than m1 incs. For any dropped inc, whether it's a m1, yo, lifted, or kfb, the trick is in figuring out where the inc originated, and understanding how it was initially created. M1 and YO incs are similar, in that they are created from a running thread. Lifted incs and kfb incs are created within an existing st, so you have to insert the hook through the leg of a stitch in a specific way, when you're pulling that first ladder rung through. It's a good suggestion for a video! Thanks!

I've got a quandry: if I've spotted where in the pattern that I missed an increaase, but that spot is 40 or so stitches away, do I work the pattern to that point, fix the missed increase, and then increase again, since the increase is in the same location? OR slip the stitches to the spot, fix the increase, and then work back to the working yarn to continue with the pattern?

@RoxanneRichardson

5 жыл бұрын

I would probably mark the location with a locking stitch marker, as a reminder to myself when I get to that point that I have to do something BESIDES the new increase (because I might forget to do it, otherwise. I don't see any advantage to slipping sts, fixing the missed inc, then slipping back in order to go forward from there, but that doesn't mean you wouldn't see an advantage. Both approaches work, so do the one that works best for you.

Hi could you do a video on how to drop down and knit a missed increase of knit 4 stitches ,which is k1 ,ktbl.k1,ktbl increase

@RoxanneRichardson

Жыл бұрын

Unfortunately, if you skipped an increase that turns 1 stitch into 4, there won't be enough slack in the available yarn to create the missing sts.

2:54 m1r to m1l (m1l은 왼쪽으로 돌리기)

What is happening when I end up with a long peice of yarn between my needles, and it just gets longer and longer making my needles farther and farther apart as I knit??

This is utterly confusing to me, sorry. I have to add M1 K1 M1 four times per every knit row, spaced evenly across the row. Three of the four increase sections look good, but one looks terrible. I must have been careless and didn’t realize it until too late. I’m thinking I have to start all over again because I haven’t been able to find a video that will help when the increases are M1 K1 M1. Any advice?
