STRETCHY BIND OFF for Beginners (game changing!)

FULL BLOG POST here: sheepandstitch.com/library/ho...
In this video I'll show you how to knit a stretchy bind off.
A stretchy bind off is one of the most versatile and useful skills to have in your knitting arsenal. Stretchy bind offs are perfect for ribbings on sleeves, necklines, hats and socks where stretch is needed to accommodate a hand, head or foot.
Thankfully a stretchy bind off is not difficult to do at all. In this video I'll show you two ways to knit a stretchy bind off step by step.

    Thank you so much! This video saved me! My great aunt passed away many years ago and had pieces of a sweater she knit, but it needed to be sewn together and have a collar added. After finally thinking I finished the sweater and trying it on, I literally had the same moment as you where I couldn't fit my head in! I of course panicked, but after redoing it with the stretchy bind-off, now it fits perfectly!

    Ah, hi. 😁 Yeah, so I've been isolated at a campground in Georgia for a month and a young woman who, with her husband were also stuck there. (sunny and 80s) But she could do amazing things with some yarn. I figured, I'm bored, this is creative and cool. I'll give it a shot. Your videos were, by a good margin the best. I'd noticed that you'd not done a video in a while so I was pleased to see you today. I'm still a total noob, but I can cast on like nobody's business! 🤣
