Same!!! Always ❤ Skip a lot but yeah hahaha

Amazing tutorial. This is so clear - both verbally and visually. This will be a go-to video for me from now on. No more closing up those holes after the fact during finishing! Thank you!

I just want to say: I have knitted a LOT of sweaters and I ALWAYS watch this video tutorial. It works like a charm. Thank you so so much 💋

This is one of the best tutorials I have ever used! It came out perfectly due to a nice slow pace of instruction and excellent, excellent camera use. View was never blocked, large enough to easily follow and verbal explanations were so clear. Thank you SO very much!

I'm so glad I was able to help you. Happy knitting!

This tutorial was SO clear and beautifully explained, thank you! Excellent camera view, excellent (and interesting) explanation!

Hands down, the best tutorial on picking up stitches for the sleeve. Thank you!

this is my favorite tutorial for handling the underarm gap stitches, I come back to it every time!

I have used other videos to do this but this is the BEST explanation about why the stitches have to be mounted and twisted in the way they are. Thank you. 😊

Bookmarking this one for all future top down sweaters. It was clear and I could see exactly where to pick up my own stitches. Thank you!!

My new go to for the underarms! Thank you so much for your slow, concise and visually clear video!

Thank you! Thank you! The clearest and most concise tutorial for picking up stitches for sleeves.

I am in total awe of your method ❤ As a perfectionist, and a newby to knitting this is as good as it gets. I knew this would be my biggest challenge thus far and could not be happier with the results. Thanks so much Dawn

My go to also! I’ve saved it and am doing a sweater with Plotulopi and dark blue 😅 but your tutorial is just for me. Thank you!

This is a really well-organized, clear tutorial. Thank you!

You've helped me countless times. Whenever I'm knitting a sweater, I come back to your video because it's the simplest, clearest explanation I could find. You area great teacher. Thank you 🙌

Excellent! I just completed both sweater sleeves using this technique and they look fabulous darlink 😘

This is such a good tutorial, thank you! I've been using it for every stocking stitch garment I make. On my current project was feeling lazy and tried just following pattern without a closing technique - it looked so gappy I frogged back and returned to this tutorial! Worth it every time.

This was the clearest and most informative tutorial I’ve found on how to close that underarm gap. Thank you!

Can’t thank you enough for this video. THE BEST one I’ve seen. You’re a great teacher. Clear instructions, great lighting and easy to see exactly how to do this. And it works! Thank you so much : )

One of the best tutorials I’ve seen! Thanks for sharing 👍❤️

After years and many jumpers and cardigans and holes and different techniques to minimise them this is an absolute gift!! Worked a treat!! Thank you so, so much!!! Makes so much sense and such a clear and easy demonstration to follow along!! Bless you!!

So very glad I found this! I have been stuck at this point in my sweater for 2 weeks, looking for a clear video, and a good outcome! I feel so much more confident going forward! Thank you!

I'm knitting my first ever top and so glad I found this tutorial. It was very easy to follow and I'll be happy to avoid those gaps. Thank you!

Wow! Thank you so much for this super clear video. I'm knitting my first sweater in the round and will use this method on my second sleeve. Love the pace of your voice and explanation!

So glad I found this tutorial! This technique worked beautifully on the baby sweater I’m knitting. I will definitely refer back to this for any sweaters I knit in future!

Thankful to come across this video for assistance in picking up underarm stitches, excellent!

Thank you for such a clear tutorial! Very helpful and I learned why it works to close that pesky gap! 😊

This is the best, clearest explanation of how to do this without leaving a hole under the arm that I have ever seen. Thank you so much for such a great video...

Every time I knit a sleeve, I watch your video. Thank you so, so much for your clear, easy to follow, instructions ❤

This makes it all so clear! Excellent.

FINALLY a video that actually explains it step by step - so many others are unclear and give too many options. I'm going to tackle the pile of unfinished sweaters that have stalled at the sleeves - THANK YOU!

I’ve seen this before- but you explain it so much better and faster. I’m saving this video- to remind me how to pick up sleeves on top down sweaters

@@thechillydog l knit since over 44 years, teach some teens since ab.2 years. I watch vids to notice if anything changed and if my knowledge is on best line to teach. And, nevertheless, l love to watch the videos! Sometimes l really see something, a trick, a kind of handholding e.g., that helps me although knowing a lot throuoh the years. Who tells knowing ALL is stupid! Additional l've got a handicap - hands and arms plus vertebrals, legs, all joints and nervs and nervs- muscle - connections - that makes it difficult to knit the way l did before. So l began to knit with the best knitting - needles, in my eyes HiyaHiya (HH) and Chiaogoo (CG) and put them together, by dremeling the first step away that's needed to fit adapters/needles to cables. I did this only with adapters, first. So l could use Mini - and S - cables of CG with HH - needles! L - needles get the adapters to S and everything is in range. HH - cables l only use for parking while knitting with the former there needed cable. Uuu, l love these red lace and blue cables of CG! They're the waaaaay best cables one can find! One doesn't need a switching end cause the wired cable leds all ok. I prefer the Mini - cables. Only very heavy fabrics get a S - cable! Connectors of CG fit to HH - cables(sometimes dremel 2 srew - windings away :) ) , aL S and Mini - HH - cables fit to CG - needles. With all these needles, 2 sets 2,75 to 10,00 mm needles and 1 red twist short combo 2,00 mm to 3,25 mm and 1 blue twist short combo set 3,5 mm to 5,0 mm l feel like in heaven for knitters. Watching your and a few other wonderful teachers here, Nele, Very pink knit, Elizza mostly, l have videos to show my pupils to hand them out for home studies if l'm not in reach if they need me during the week.l'm a teacher by heard and want they feel well and never alone like l always was since l began to use YT for patterns and then cause of my handicaps. They got too heavy by 2 accidently failed surgeries. I love to knit! Be blessed!

Excellent! Thank you!

Great tutorial! Thank you!

As I was finishing the body of a top down sweater, I needed a refresher on tubular bind off and found your channel. It was terrific. And then when it came time to pick up sleeve stitches, which I almost dreaded, because of those pesky holes that ALWAYS were a finishing problem. I found your video. Sleeves are perfect for the first time. I can't tell you how many times they always needed some finessing in the finishing. Thank you!

Super technique, well explained. Thank you for sharing.

This video saved me. Can’t thank you enough! 🙏

Super directions and video!
