How to work a seamless, top-down, folded neckline
This video tutorial will show you how to knit a seamless, top-down, folded neckline. You can use this method to work a folded neckline on any top-down sweater pattern. The finished neckline maintains its flexibility and looks nice and tidy.
This method does NOT require you to begin with a provisional cast-on. I recommend the German Twisted Cast-on for maximum flexibility.

Brilliant and exactly what I needed - precise demonstration of where to insert the needle in the inside edge. My collar came out looking perfect. Thank you!
Thanks so much! This was a lot easier to follow than another similar video I was watching. I have my neckline all folded together and knit neatly now.
This is a very helpful video. I wasn’t making a top down neckline but I was still able to use your technique and tips. Thank you! ❤
Its a beautiful neckline. Thank you for this tutorial.
Wow that’s so neat. Thank you for the news letter and the demo video. Blessings
Thank you for this video!
Thank you! It was very helpful🧶😊
Thank you!
Knits n pieces recommended your channel and you have a new sub
Excellent tutorial!
You may want to show the object when all the stitches have been done just for a visual reference.
Fantastic!
Thanks you for your interesting video 👍🙏👌❤️
My pattern asks to purl the neck rib folded band together. Do I insert the needle on the cast on edge from back to front instead of front to back. Thank you.
If you want the rib to be folded flatter, you can complete the entire round (in the middle, i.e. where it is folded in half) using only purl stitch.

Do you have an example on how to do that? Would you pick up the CO edge or pull up a loop first from the CO to join that?

I work half my rib then do a purl row and work the other half of the rib. It makes the neckband lie flatter at the fold
Your video was so clear and I did not have any trouble seeing where one would pick up stiches on the backside. Thank you! By the way, what kind of a bind off would you use with this technique?
Do I do knit stitches even if I have a k1 p1 ribbing?
Very nice❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Could this be done with a provisional cast on as well?
This is wonderful; thank you! I have a question: after you finish this process, do you just go on to the yoke, or whatever is next after the neckband?

You just keep on going with the yoke or whatever is written next. Your neckline will be completely finished at this point except for weaving in the ends.
This is wonderful! Could this be transferred easily to your Woodsmoke pattern, by doubling the number of rows, or even adding an extra one? Thank you!

You can easily apply this to Woodsmoke or any other pattern. Knit the ribbing to twice what you what the final result to be and follow the instructions in the tutorial to join the neckline together.

@@JessicaMcDonaldKnits that's really great to know, thank you for your help 💐
Im wondering how you do this when the sweater body is already attached... I guess turn the sweater inside out? it seems awkward, is there a better way to do a folded neckband when the sweater body is already done and part of the neck? oh wait I dont think this can be done with a sweater body I guess you have to do this neckband first then start the sweater...

For this the neckband shown in this tutorial, you knit the neckband first and then the sweater body. For a neckline that you attach after the sweater body is done, head into my tutorials and find the “How to pick up stitches for a neckline” and “How to sew down a folded neckline”
