I have knitted for literally decades and almost always use the long tail cast on. Today is the day I learned that there is a way to do it purlwise! I had no idea. Thanks, Kika!
by the way: german short rows are just short rows in Germany 😂
Oh ahaha that makes sense :))
😂
😂 too funny
Kinda like French fries and Italian sausage. Made me giggle.
In the whole World, they are called Germany short rows! ITS a knitting term outside of Germany
Kika, from the bottom on my heart I wish to THANK YOU so much for all the time, effort, dedication, and love you pour into your content! Your warm, lovely energy pours through and through (all the way here to the US) and I'm always left feeling like I can tackle challenging to me now projects like these with comfort and ease, especially with your wonderful tutorials (WOW, do they ever help so much). You are seen and appreciated! I will definitely put your Wishbone Sweater on my project list to make after all of the gift knitting I need to tackle at the moment. Also, I can already tell you're going to be a wonderful mother. It is TOTALLY natural to be nervous and apprehensive when you don't know what you don't know but know that this is what also will make you a great Mom. Our children are precious and you now have a chance in a lifetime to evolve into another version of yourself. I think you'll see what I mean when your baby boy enters the world! Enjoy the experience, all of it, as it unfolds. Be kind and patient with yourself. Practice radical self-care and love. When the time is right, go out out on day dates with your partner. There is no manual for how to raise a child nor any preparation for how it can change your life. I've never experienced anything greater and now that my Girls are young adults ladies, I really can't believe how fast the time has gone! It has truly been the best thing I've ever done! You're going to be amazing! 💖
You are very sweet, you smile all the time, I haven’t seen you for a long time! Very happy about you! Nice to see you!❤❤❤❤
Dear Kika
I follow your channel for a while now and I really think you are auch a lovely person and knitter. Your videos are one of my safe and inspiring escapes from daily life in which I can learn so much.
Thank you for your effort - this is one of my favourite designs that you have created ( the choice isn't easy at all)
Thank you ❤
I must tell you that wishbone sweater is one of the most beautiful i’ve ever seen. So i am struggling now to have one:). You are such talented and positive person ! Thank you ❤️
I love my wishbone sweater so much! I knitted it in the beginning of this year when the pattern came out ❤️
I love it, cant wait to start knitting it, thank you so much for sharing!!!
This new year will be a massive change for your family. I wish you all the best that life has to offer for young couples with their first child. Happy New Year.
This is my favourite of all your designs thus far; delighted to see a tutorial as I have been itching to knit it but a bit intimidated! Also, thank you for the long tail cast on with purl knit tutorial! I’ve always just done straight knit so this is brilliant!
What a timing. Purchased the yarn and pattern for a wishbone sweater two weeks ago but had to finish your beautiful prideandpearls testknit first (totally in love with it.) Can't wait to cast it on❤
This is my favourite thing I have ever knitted. And I have just cast on another one. Thank you for making such a beautiful pattern 💜
Yay! Thank you so much for this video. I cannot wait to start this sweater. I was intimidated by the German short rows but I am confident I can do it after watching your demonstration. You explained everything beautifully. Thank you so much!
Babe wake up kutovakika just dropped a new tutorial!!!!
I am a new knitter, still in my first year and this tutorial is great, the ribbed cast on is new to me and with how slowly you went through it was super easy to understand!
This is perfect timing….thank you so much. I have just finished the collar ❤❤❤
I'm not a knitter but love to crochet. I think your work is beautiful! I enjoy listening to your videos and especially love seeing what you done that is new. I can't wait to see what baby clothes you make. I am sure they will be amazing! May God bless your family through the holiday season and throughout the year!! Thank you for sharing your work!!
This sweater is a little above my level of knitting but your tutorial makes me hopeful. Thank you for the helpful explanation of the pattern. I love your patterns and your podcast. Congratulations on becoming a mother and keeping the experience real. I feel your excitement!❤
Hi Kika: you are a GEM!!!! I was very happy to follow the Arctic sweater tutorial and to be able to make such a gorgeous garment. And now, I am thrilled to see this tutorial because I did purchased the Wishbone pattern and I am super ready to start casting on. I also want to take this oppurtunity to wish you all the best and lots love for the birth of your baby and your family.
This is the BEST description of the what why and how of the German short row on the internet! I can do them but I never really understood what I was doing. Kika you are an amazing teacher. Also now I’m not afraid when I hear twisted rib😂 I gotta make this sweater 😂. Thanks girl ❤🙋♀️🇺🇸
I was recently shopping in Stephen & Penelope in AMS (on holiday) and the shop girl was wearing the Wishbone Sweater. It was so fun to ask "is that the Wishbone?" and she was equally delighted to say "YES!" I loved seeing it in person. I bought the pattern when it was first released but seeing it for myself and now, having this lovely video will make it even more fun to knit.
this is so beautiful! I definitely need to make more time to knit
I have made this woooonderful sweater and turned out so well. Your pattern is perfect!!!❤❤❤
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I was keeping my fingers crossed for this!
Fabulous your new sweater !!! I've knit in the past cables but your projects are so complete. I can't wait to finish the sweater who I'm knitting now to begin this.
I'm glade to watch your videos. Are so useful and you make your projects to seem so easy!!! Thank you and gongratulations for that.
And I'm glade so much for your pregnancy!!! I'm mother and I have two daughters 20 and 24 ! ❤😍
This is the most beautiful sweater! I don't love knitting sweaters, but this pattern is at least changing my mind to attempt another one. Thank you!
Thank you, I appreciate the tips as I'm going through the pattern now.
So I just started watching this tutorial while I'm knitting something else because I saw someone make this on tiktok and am obsessed with the pattern (I have never knitted a full sweater, but recently learned to do cable pattern) and then you come around with the different long-tail cast on for the purl stitches and I've been knitting socks for so long just with the knit stitch long-tail cast on! Most of my knitting knowledge just comes from what I initially learned from my mother and now from very specific Google and CZcams searches, so I never came across this. I'll definitely be trying this for my next pair of socks!
And also I'll knit this sweater... eventually 😁
thank you for doing this, I have always avoided German short row patterns, I think I will do this wishbone sweater next thank you
So cute!! Love the brown wool 😍
Какая красота!!! Супер!!! Мне сложнее понимать, потому что я не очень хорошо знаю английский, но я слежу за Вашими руками! Спасибо огромное!!!😊
включите субтитры на русском
FINALLY!!! 🎉🎉 I’m half way through it, but I still find the tutorial useful thanks.
Immediatly I’ve bought your pattern! I can’t wait to start….❤
This is so amazing !! Gorgeous pattern, also your energy is beautiful
This sweater is absolutely gorgeous ❤!
I was a bit dubious about doing this sweater, but after watching this tutorial, I think it's doable. Thank you, Kika. 😊
I'm going to try, but just with worsted. Keep it simple. But it's too gorgeous not to try. Will do the short rows.
Awesome tutorial! Thanks so much!
Oh my goodness! Excellent video. Thank you 😊
I have always loved this sweater ❤! Thank you for the tutorial, I will definitely cast on!!! Happy Holidays!
Dear Kika, thank You so much - have a nice pre-Christmas season❤!
I’m knitting it and loving it ❤ Thank you
Perfect Kika ❤ Wish you all the best 🎇
This is a dream sweater! Buying the yarn already
Wow. Piękny sweterek 🧶💗🌟
Спасибо большое Кика. Всех благ и удачи. Берегите себя ❤️
Love your designs, wishbone sweater is gorgeous))
Thank you Kutovakika for the new tutorial video 💖🌹🌹🌹🌹🙏🍀. You look very beautiful especially when pregnant. I learned so much from you in knitting and I am currently working on 3 of your patterns. Buddhas bless you and your beloved ones 🍀🍀🍀🍀
Love your videos and had learned so much from it🙏💝👌🙏
Juhuuuu 🎉 Hurra 🥳 🎉 I love it 💗 I was looking so forward to knit it, since You, Kika, showed /presented it at first time 😊 Thank you very much and many greetings from Germany! Tack-tack ( I had studied in Sverige many many years ago;)
Yay I'm so glad to hear that! Roligt, hoppas du gillar det
I finally finished my last project and I’m so excited to begin a new one, my first one of yours. ❤ I’m sure you are busy getting ready for baby or maybe baby is now here. Just thinking about you and sending blessings.
Hi Kika, love that sweater! At the beginning with these short rows I wondered why not to start in the middle with that double stitches to avoid the wonky line. In that way you will knit the long short rows first and then the shorter ones. With that you will have the double stitches right before the cables and hide them.
Never the less, the sweater suits you very well. Thanks a lot for your videos!
✨Gorgeous✨
Beautiful!
I wish that one day i could do what you do. I absolutely love knitting, and i am self taught, but with little kiddos it’s difficult to find time. Maybe one day, for now following channels like yours and knitting whenever i can.
Śliczny sweter👍👍👍👍👍podziwiam Ciebie robisz z taką lekkoscią,kazdy zrobiony przez ciebie sweter jest piękny.😍Robie troszke na drutach ,jestem samoukiem,twoj system od góry jest mi nieznany.Pozdrawiam z Polski 😘
Hi , I just found your channel, and I enjoy it very much. I love knitting but just now after getting to pension I have time to enjoy. Thank you for sharing your designs and your explication.
Gorgeous
I definitely want to make this sweater at some point. I’ve recently cast on the Salty Days Sweater and I’m doing it in a very festive red 😅
Thanks you for the tutorial 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
This is so helpful! I'm a new knitter and have never done cables before (they seem so daunting!) but this tutorial makes me feel like I am ready to start a cabled project!!!
I am also a new knitter and was intimidated but cables are super easy!
Cables are fun to do once you get the hang of it!
Super nice!
Thank you tutorial. And congratulation near born baby!!!!!!
Lovely design ❤
Thank you so much :)
너무 너무 이뿌네요. 요즘 저는 Arctic Light Sweater 를 뜨개 중입니다. Wishbone Sweater 도 곧 뜰께요.
늘 감사합니다. 😊
Kika, Hello from Maryland, USA! What a fantastic tutorial! You explain and show everything so well! And your sweater is so beautiful! I’m trying to finish a couple of Christmas projects, but hope to get to this soon! You are an amazing Knitter and a Genius Designer!
It looks like your Little Passenger is growing and treating you pretty well! You look wonderful and healthy! Thank you for sharing. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and an Easy-As-Pie pregnancy and birth!
Thanks for explanation ❤ 🥰😘
Thinking of you and sending best wishes.
This must be gorgeous as well as a dress ❤
Congratulations to you both for your baby boy!🎉 I am in USA, just looked for your book on Amazon and saw that there is only a Kindle addition in German!😂.
I have made your Wishbone Sweater (I have a project page on Ravelry that describes my experience if anyone is interested) and I absolutely loved the process and how it turned out. Great video to help others with the technique here. Thankyou Kika!
I’d be interested I bought the pattern how do I find you

Bellissimo..preso ora pattern grazie e ancora auguri per il tuo pancione
Прекрасная модель❤, очень красиво и стильно. Спасибо за вдохновление ❤
I miss your photography! I wish you would do some amazingly creative maternity photoshoot ...
Очень понравилась ваша работа,подписалась!
Wow this is amazing.l I must do this too 😅
Yay I'm so glad to hear that :)
Thank you for explaining the reason we need to make double stich ! ! Lol 😂 I guess I am not so sharp in knitting or maybe just novice in short rows…..
Hi Dear Kika,
I have followed your channel and your videos give me immense joy and inspiration.
I have been wondering if you have a tutorial for a boat neck drop shoulder full sleeves crop sweater?
I have been looking for one for some time and have not managed to find any.
Would love to hear from you on that.
Thanks,
Happy new year and a lovely beginning.
Wow!!!!!!!😊
Perfect timing ready to do my test swatch. Question? Did I notice that you only used two strands of yarn for the garder stitch? Thanks
Привіт Кіка, я з задоволення дивлюся відео ти супер💪🌺
I love this sweater. Could I use one strand of the knitting for olive heavy merino in stead?
Il est merveilleux, merci ! A quand un pull sans manches ?
Era l'ora!!!😅
Ho comprato il pattern ma ho provato a farlo e rifarlo 3 volte e nn torna mai,pensavo fosse un problema mio ma ho visto che anche i suoi prototipi nn mi sembra che tornino alla perfezione!!! Mi piace moltissimo il modello ,ma nn riesco ad andare avanti!!!
Every time I have seen this sweater, I always think to myself that I could never do this. I still am not sure if I can, but at least I am now at the point that I’m willing to try to knit this!!
***BUT I do have questions concerning the collar of the sweater. I have not yet done German short rows but have been wanting to incorporate this shaping into my knitting. You have explained and demonstrated this so clearly in this tutorial that I am now confident that I can accomplish this shaping into this as well as other sweaters. Thank you for that!! Still not at my questions (lol). In addition to wanting to incorporate German short row shaping, I have also become very interested in doing the folded over collar. I just love that rounded edge at the top of the collar. Can this be done along with doing German short rows? Or would you recommend not doing that and just having the cast-on edge as the top of the collar? If it is possible to do both, how would I accomplish that? Would I first do the German short rows just as you have shown here and then continue to do enough additional rows in ribbing to double the height of the collar, or do I have to do something else with regard to shaping so as not to lose the effect of the short row shaping? THEN, once I would have doubled the height of the collar, how would you recommend finishing the collar? Would it be best to sew down the collar (ugh, I am not fond of sewing!)? Or can the collar be knitted down? I wasn’t sure if this could work because of how the ribbing continues into the yoke of the sweater and then into the cable pattern. Would it show from the outside…or can it be knitted down in the ribbing pattern so that it’s invisible from the outside? Is this possible or am I asking for too much?
I know I have asked so many questions within this comment, and I so appreciate you considering to answer all of this. Thank you in watching your advance for doing so.
I also have to make mention of your pregnancy. In the video when you made the announcement, I just knew - as soon as you said you had an announcement that that is what it was going to be! I couldn’t wait for you to get to the point in the video when you actually did say that you are expecting! I am so excited for you! I have so enjoyed watching you plan for your wedding, you knitting and crocheting your dress, and watching you sharing parts of your wedding. I’ve really enjoyed watching how both your personal and professional life have progressed since you started sharing your videos with us. Your designs have also shown the changes as you’ve progressed - with more shaping and more intricate patterns. So I was so excited when you announced that you’re expecting! And then I knew pretty quickly that you’re going to have a boy! There’s a certain facial change that seems to be pretty common among those of us who have boys. As soon as I saw that change in your face, I knew it!…and couldn’t wait until you actually did share it with us! I’ve been very amused watching you knit for the baby! Some of what you have made probably won’t fit him until he is a year old! But that is OK, because the smaller things will be outgrown so quickly that he probably will get to wear them only one time. So it’s good that you’re making some things that are a lot larger. This baby will be well dressed!
Thank you for sharing your life with us as well as your designs. I almost feel like an aunt watching you progress in your life.
🤗❤️🤗🌹🌹🌹🌹Thank you
This is my sign to buy the pattern 👀
شكراً لك على هذا العمل الرائع أتمنى وضع الترجمة العربية للفيديو وشكرا
Очень красиво!

Really, really beautiful design and yarn! I do have a question that I was not quite sure about - is the Knitting for Olive merino the light (fingering) weight or the heavy (I think DK) weight? You mentioned 2 strands of merino and one of mohair held together (so 3 strands held together) - is this how you are coming up with a heavier weight merino yarn? Thanks in advance for any answers from anyone. I would love to give this a try.
Bellissimi maglioni , sei bravissima !!e un vero peccato che non ci sia la traduzione in italiano😢😢😢😢
Was really waiting for this tutorial because this will be my first cable project! I totally fell in love when I saw the pattern, the design is fab! I have a question: Is it possible to work only 6 or 8 German Short Rows? The shape the 12 rows give to the collar is a bit too much for my taste. Would love a shape between the version without and the one with. And if I work less than 12, is it possible to add "normal" rows after GSR to get the lenght or should I knit more rows and end with my GSRs? Hope you will give me some advice!
And one size questions as well: Are you working always the same size? The brown and the greyish looks much bigger than the off white version. Thank you in advance and have a lovely 1st Advent!
❤❤❤
