How to Read a Knitting Chart (for beginner knitters)
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Learn how to read a knitting chart for new knitters. We'll look at the basic components of a chart, some simple charts for Garter stitch, Stockinette, Seed stitch (and even a lace chart - with that often confusing 'no stitch' box). I'll demonstrate how to knit by following a chart, and share some tips for keeping track of rows while knitting.

Glad it was helpful!
Marvellous Thank you very much
What would I do without you 😢❤
Hello I found this video helpful especially when you explained how to do the repeats. How would I read a pattern repeat when there is no red box? Thank you

If there is no red box (or other sort of bold borders or lines) I would assume that I should repeat the whole chart.
The explaining is great but, next time use a lighter color because the red is to dark when you want to show the stitches it's hard to see them or use brighter lighting 😉
I will never knit from a pattern that has charts. Soooooo confusing and time consuming. To me it is such a stupid way to do knitting patterns.

Isn't it nice that we have choices! Written instructions for those who love them and charts for people who are more visual.
