How To Knit: The Eden Sweater
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Learn how to knit our Eden Sweater, perfect for knitters who have made one or two projects and are ready for the next challenge. This video will take you through every step of the way from casting on, rib stitch and stocking stitch to shaping techniques, casting off and joining your pieces together, so if you're ready to step up your stitchy skills, this one's for you! In this video, we are using our Crazy Sexy Wool in Ivory White and a pair of 12 mm (US 17) knitting needles along with some scissors and a sewing needle to make a size 2 Eden Sweater.
The Freedom sweater is knit in the exact same way as this, but is stitched using our 100% upcycled Heal The Wool. That's two woolly patterns in one!
This sweater is a great base for our fun and festive duplicate stitch free patterns, which you can find here:

The most amazjng and clear tutorial. Thank you so much
Thank you!!!!! I love that it is quiet without musical background. I would love to knit this sweater. I hope you have a 3-ply version of this wool, because I learned in the Bible that 3-ply is stronger than 1.

Does anyone know if I can make this sweater using just knit rows ( I like look better), or if I would have to make any changes to the pattern. Thank you for helping.
How do you keep track of how many rows you knit? Is there an easy way, or should I continue to use my counter?
Nice work
nice sharing 👍👍❤️
I would recommend making this sweater according to the directions she gives for a size 10-12 US. I tried adding stitches to accommodate the size difference and it came out waaay to big. If you’re a 10/12 US, so it fie the size 6/8 UK.

So this is a size 2? How many skeins of yarn? And how would we modify for size 3?
I love your sweaters and patterns (they taught me how to knit!) but I really wish you offered more knit in the round options. I hate seaming but have found knitting in the round to be slow to progress for me.
Thanks for the great video! Do you have any suggestion on which yarn to use if we want to make a summery version, let's say using cotton?
How many yarns did you use?
Can please add the pattern for front, sleeve and everything together to finish off the top and neck?
Thank you thank you 😊❤
Hi there.. the sweater you’re showing/knitting which size is it?
Thank you very much
This tutorial is really great. I am a new knitter and this gives me the courage to try with a sweater... I am trying to follow along and I got stuck at the decrease of the body. You work one decrease row and a purl row, then you start the secondo decrease row and then you say you just finished your decrease row and 3 stocking stich rows...how many rows did you actually work? ....and then ? Do you keep alternating one decrease and one purl row, or one decrease row and 3 stocking see rich rows? I tried both, but it's my first sweater try and I can't understand what's the right length.... I hope you or someone can help me with this. 😊 Thanks

I’m confused about this too. I counted the number of rows of the sleeve when the shaping started and it’s 24 so I assume the body shaping should also be the same, which works out to be 2 rows of casting off 4 stitches each 1 decrease row, 1 purl row 4 times of (1 decrease row, 3 rows of stocking stitch) 2 times of (1 decrease row and 1 purl row) Going to try this now. Hope it works!!

Ok!! I did it. It works alternating * 1 reduction and 3 stockinette rows*. It fits perfectly with the arms and it is also quite easy to sew. Just pay attention, it is SUPER oversize... I added 5 stitches to the body in order to have it a little bit bigger, but it's HUGE ...and very heavy. Good knit!

@@mariute1 so, is that one cast off 4 in knit, 1 cast off 4 in purl, then the decrease 2 row in knit followed by 3 ordinary stockinette rows starting from purl row, and then repeat from decrease 2 in knit row and then 3 stockinette stitch, 3 more times? Coz for my first 2 efforts I was literally just alternating the decrease 2 rows and the purling rows, I've only noticed recently on rewatching the video that she suddenly mentions '3 rows of stocking stitch'!!
At 14:11 it’s a little confusing. Is the three rows of stocking stitch referring to the K decrease, purl, K decrease rows? And then you do K decrease row, P to end, K to end, P to end, x3?

I think her wording was unfortunately a bit confusing, but she meant keep going with what you were already doing on those 3 previous rows (and her next instructions are the same, too). Which means: When you have just done a knit decrease row and decreased to 29 stitches... Purl 1 row. Do a knit decrease row,. Purl 1 row. Do a knit decrease row. Purl 1 row. Keep repeating, until you get to 19 stitches. Ensure you finish on a Purl row (so Purl 1 more row after you decreased on a knit row to get down to those 19 stitches). That's it. Done. Super simple!
Such great tutorial!! And that wool looks super cozy.. tried buying it but you guys don't ship it to India.. please start shipping here!! ❤🤗

Love this video but how much yarn did you use
Looks ridiculously easy to me! First tutorial I've seen using straight needles! The hardest thing seems to be the seaming at the end! Sod that, I think I'll just seam it in whip stitch on the wrong sides instead! (most shop bought sweaters have seams on the inside!) only other thing to say is, it would have been better to play a little incidental music instead of cutting out the sound when you went fast coz I found that disturbing! And ALSO, I hope you have PRINT OUT instructions on your website for this!

BACK THEN WHEN RECYCLING WAS THE NORM! I'm 73; I stopped knitting at 16. I decided to go back since sweaters in the stores look like old-communist China. As a kid, I was taught to unravel old sweaters full of holes and reknit them. The nuns showed us how to knit faster and evenly. One must hold all fingers on the needles while the right index constantly hooks and wraps the wool without ever being lifted off the needle. This is how one can recognize a real professional knitter. Up to now, in all videos I watched, I noticed none of them could match the best-knitter nun of my childhood.
@LaFanfanTulipe

@Vicar Amelia This is the way I and the nun knit. But the nun was hundred times better as she used only her index closed to the needles to hook the left needle without ever lifting her right hand off the needle. Her right hook was short and quick. She also did not want to waste her time knitting so she read at the same time and never made a hole. Her whole sweater was uniform like made in a machine. Here is the video. kzread.info/dash/bejne/fqd6vMlrctGWZqg.html
What type of wool is this?
Is the same pattern used for a size 22-24?
Hi! How much yarn did this take? (In grams)
Is this like Chunky wool. I. I South Africa and bought chunky for my granddaughter cropped jumper. Can't find any decent patterns for 22 yr old. Modern that is. Hope there is a printed pattern for this. I'm a bit old to watch and knit at the same time.
Hi! At 14:12 when you say to repeat the sequence of 3 stocking stich rows and one decrease row 3 times do you mean knit one row, purl one row, knit one row and then do a decrease row and then to repeat that 3 times?

Beautiful jumper. I was ready to commit to buy the kit, until I saw how you do the sizes. I am a UK 16, therefore the 14/16 will be too tight and the 18/20 will be way to big. Have you considered doing the patterns in bust size? After all that’s what we buy clothes to fit.
