You have the best video on how to learn. Great instructions ty ❤
I know this is extremely late, but I’ve been looming for many, many yrs & have never seen anyone do the beginning cast for double knitting as you have done. You are absolutely brilliant.❤️ I always disliked looming scarves because trying to crochet the beginning cast on, then trying to pull the waste yarn out was a nightmare. Thanks again. You are a wonderful instructor.
Tightening the cast-on is the best idea ever! Thank you.

I'm glad this is helpful! I learned it from watching variations of this technique from other KZreadrs.
You ARE AWESOME! Thank you for the little tidbits about errors you made and things you learned. I am going to try!
I’m so happy I found your Chanel..my scarf is coming out beautifully and my mom who is awesome at knitting was very proud to see me follow in her steps. Thank you !!!
Thank you, even tho I have made several scarfs, I am still learning. Today my mouth flew open when I watched you. Since a car accident, I am homebound and disabled. So I am a sponge for learning new things I always wanted to do. I can sew and make anything, from a wedding dress to making mink blankets but could not get the hang knitting or crochet. I love the scarfs I made but they were only a repeat, repeat, repeat of the same stitch. Now because of your simple thorough direction, I can try a new stitch, I am so excited. I always watch the video twice at least before I start. Then I follow along with the video slowly. Because I want to make sure it looks the same. I watched a video on ten stitches for beginners and I saw the stitch I was using and it was so messy. I want a stitch that looks like it was purchased at a store. I am grateful I found your video. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Just bought a loops & threads knit quick loom set and totally excited to have found your channel. This one is a little complicated for me at the moment but I did think your tutorial was easy to follow. I will be searching your channel for the stitch usually started with on these looms before I go in to fancier stitches. Thanks so much!

I liked the video. It looks as if you are using a 5/8"loom and bulky yarn. I particularly liked your bind off to match the cast on. There are so many ïncidentials" in loom knitting. Takes a while to keep them all in my head. Thanks for this stitch and your instructions.

I'm new to loom knitting and have watched several other tutorials, only to frog the scarf after a few inches because it looked loose and messy. Your video is so easy to follow! I appreciate the way you explain everything so well. I also really liked the fact that you showed how to tighten the first row of loops on the bottom edge. I've never seen that done before. Thank you so much! I think this scarf will be my first completed loom knit item. :)

I like your video. I'm waiting on my loom to arrive so I can try it. I bought a crochet set but I'm struggling copying from vids because they hide where the hook goes or it's not clear like your video. All I wanted to do was crochet a blanket so because I'm struggling I've decided to knit one instead. I will deffo give this ago though.
Mmm I think we can make the double stitch and will look great ! Only make the same row twice 😃
I don’t loom knit but hand knit. I didn’t know you could get so creative. Good tutorial.

You are a very good tutorialist. You have a clear voice. Your procedure is slow enough to follow. Not too slow. And your hands never get in the way. And good lighting. I like the crisscross stitch. Are there other stitches on the long loom?
@hellomsyarn

Thanks for the compliments. Other long loom stitches that I like are the rib stitch, honeycomb stitch and star stitch. More beginner stitches would be the zigzag stitch, stockinette stitch and figure 8 stitch. All are on my channel, you can do a search.
Perfect! You were detailed and easy to follow! Thank you!

I was also confused by the jump from cast-on to pattern but i figured out just to start the figure 8 on the bottom peg instead of top and it then matches with what she does in the rest of the pattern (for odd # of rows), if you dont switch at the beginning it takes more work later because you have to essentially reverse top and bottom rows

This is my fifth or sixth scarf project using your wonderful videos! I especially appreciate that you include casting on and binding off as well as the stitch instructions. For this pattern, do you have any tips of keeping track which row you are working? I marked the 4th and 3rd pegs with blue stitch markers and the 3rd and 2nd pegs with pink markers and have been trying to keep track of the rows that way. I duplicated one row which is obvious (to me) and will try to hand stitch in corrections when I’m done. Currently, I am writing down what row I just completed so I know what row to start with when I return. Any tips would be appreciated!!
Excellent video.

I just have one question is the right edge and the left edge exactly the same because on the video it looks like one side is wider on one edge, then the other edge. Otherwise I do love it. It’s very pretty and make the scarf over our snowy weekend.
Love it
Thank you!
That looks hard since I’m a total scarf beginner, but the finished scarf braid is so pretty!

I love this stitch I definitely want to try this. My question is how would you change colors more than one. I have pink and grey fuzzy yarn and I would love to do this on the loom but I don’t know how to do this if I’m using two different colors??
@hellomsyarn

I actually have not tried changing colours myself, so you'd have to experiment. Good luck.
I love your videos. I want to make a blanket using this stitch. Just for clarification, does it matter if the number of pegs used are even or odd?
@hellomsyarn
4 жыл бұрын
Hi, you can use an even number of pegs as well. Just tested it out using 8 pegs.
I just started knitting and I really appreciate your detailed instructions. No one explains it as easily and detailed as you. I wanted to know,I am making a wider scarf using 36 pegs, is the pattern still 1~4~3? Please help me, thank you for your time.
@hellomsyarn

Hi, yes, you will still do the 1 - 4 - 3. Good luck!
I loved your video! I have a problem I a hoping you can help with. I ran out of yarn and tied my knot and then the knot didn’t hold. Since I had to unravel my yarn anyway I went be 10 rows or so to correct another mistake I made. Now I don’t know how to cast back on the loom... Please help!! Thanks so much in advance!!!!
@hellomsyarn
3 жыл бұрын
I would suggest unraveling until you see a complete row on the scarf. Then with thin scrap yarn in a different colour, sew upwards on each loop. Start at top left corner and work towards right. Then sew from bottom right corner and work towards left. When you stretch your scarf to put back on the pegs, the scrap yarn will prevent loops from getting undone. You might want to remount the loops starting in the middle, this might help with tension. Good luck!
I am doing this as an infinity wrap with a double strand of contrasting yarn and it looks AMAZING. Wondering if you have any suggestions for joining the ends to achieve as seamless a look as possible?
@hellomsyarn
3 жыл бұрын
Great to hear it's looking good so far! As for joining the two ends, I have so little experience that I can't choose a preferred technique. But these two videos might be helpful. One is from @loomahat where she joins the ends by remounting the cast on edge onto the loom, and she knits the edges together. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lKCEq9axY8WXoco.html Another one is from @goodknitkisses where she binds off her cowl like a scarf, and then stitches the two ends together with a yarn needle. kzread.info/dash/bejne/eaCJ1bekk5baabA.html Hope this helps!
Can you use this stitch with alternating colors (for example like the front is green and back is red)? And can you use this stitch to make a hat?
@hellomsyarn
2 жыл бұрын
I've never tried with two colours, but feel free to experiment. For a hat, I can't help you directly, but there was a comment from another knitter who suggested using a modified diamond lace stitch for a flat panel, so maybe it can be adapted to knit in the round. Again, I haven't tested it though.
