Muchas gracias por compartirlo, he visto muchos vídeos pero ninguno te enseña a unirla bien, eres maravillosa 💕

Thank you Roxanne. I couldn´t have managed without your explanation. I hope you have a prosperous, happy New Year.

I don’t know how I missed this great tutorial but I’m sure glad I found it! Latvian Braids are so pretty! I love the way you used duplicate stitch to deal with the jog. Very clever! Beautiful work as always. Thanks for another great tutorial! Roxanne!💕

This technique of fixing the jog in the braid is Brilliant! Thank you.

I was looking for this all day because I didn't like that transition on my Latvian braid. Thank you so much!!!

You are an exceptional teacher, Ms. Richardson! Thanks so much for taking the time to impart your knowledge and experience to those of us with less. :)

Just what I needed today to finish a hat with a second row of L braid. Stopped scratching my head and can now carry on with the work. thanks for the tip.

Thanks for sharing the fix in the jog. I use the duplicate stitch but never thought to make the “purl bump” also. Brilliant. :)

Lol - I came up with the "purl bump" because I had heard people say that duplicate stitch was their fix, but I hadn't seen what they actually did, or what the result looked like, so I was coming at it from the idea that somehow it must be completely invisible, and how could you do that? It's *not* completely invisible, but you *can* improve the result. :-)

Merry Christmas you Brilliant Woman! Thank you for all you do.

Merry Christmas Roxanne!!!

Impeccable techniques. Thanks.

Thank you for this stitch tutorial. 😊

So good! Thank you!

Merry Christmas! 🎇🎆🎇🎆

Thank you!

Thank you for explaining the technique. I gave up on a glove because the printed pattern didn’t match the picture when I tried knitting it. I definitely needed visual with verbal to understand!!!

This is great! Roxanne, I have a different question about the Latvian braid: I tried to make a left-pointing braid on a swatch by simply switching the order of rounds 1 and 2, pulling the new color over on the first round and under on the second round. The strange thing is this left-pointing braid didn't lie nice and flat like the right-pointing one. It seemed to lean out and down a bit, making a kind of "ledge" along the top. Do you know why this happens and what I could do to make a braid that points left and also lies flat?

Thank you for posting on Christmas Eve Roxanne! Hope you have a wonderful Christmas! I look forward to your videos and have learned so much. Have you ever done a video discussing your favorite tools needles and such? Also, do you share a mailing address?

You are awesome Roxanne! I wanted to know if you can continue using the Lativan braid for multiple rows. I think a hat band would look great, say about 2 inches. Merry Christmas!

I have no idea how that would look. I have certainly seen multiple braids, separated by a few (or many) rounds. I suggest working a small swatch in the round to see if it works.

If I knit this braid straight after knitting a few rows of corrugated ribbing in the same colours, do I still need to knit the set-up row or can I just go straight to rows 2 and 3? Also, if I want to stack two or more Latvian braids on top of each other, do I need the set-up row in between each braid, or just start each one with row 2?

Can a Latvian Braid be done around an armhole and a V-neck? i really find this quite a design element.

I can learn so much from other people

Do you need an even or odd number of cast on stitches?

@RoxanneRichardson

You are alternating between two colors for the entire round, starting the round with one color, and ending with the other, which means you need an even number.

It looks like the braid can be used at the edge to keep stockinette from curling, is that true?

@RoxanneRichardson

I do use it at the top of stockinette Christmas stockings, but it will still want to bend toward the knit side. Stockinette wants to stockinette (i.e. roll at the edges), unless you have something adjacent to it with sufficient length/width to counteract the roll. A single Latvian Braid is probably not enough, but a second one that points in the opposite direction might be enough.

Can this be done on straight knitting? I would like to knit this in the very center of a scarf..

Yes, but you'd knit, instead of purl on the second row, and I can't tell you off the top of my head how you handle the rotation of the floats (whether you rotate under or over). You might try searching for a video on Latvian braids knit flat. Traditionally, they are knit in the round (usually on mittens, but I assume they would I used them on other types of projects, as well). I also don't know how you would handle the edges/turning point to get the nicest result along the selvedge..

Do you mean you're using two circular needles in the round, or are you using two straight needles, knitting flat?
