    This is all like a foreign language to me. As a complete beginner, I look forward to getting to the point where I can read these comments and understand what they mean. I am left-handed, which made it difficult to learn things as basic as tying my shoes when I was a kid. I did try to crochet when I was 17, but the person who taught me was right-handed, and I struggled. I still have the blanket I was trying to make. I wasn't told to count my stitches, so it ended up totally uneven. I absolutely love all these left-handed videos.

    Great video! 👍🏼 I don’t knit so I’m pleased to get these useful tips for making the knitted items look more professionally finished. I don’t understand the negative comments as I don’t think you talked too much at all. Thanks!

    I love the beginning edge finish hint.! I would really love to see you use this technique to add yarn mid-row or change yarn to a line of stitches as I really need to see it to completely understand. Thank you!

    I have just discovered you and loopy yarn. Love your stuff. And I also wanted to say thank you for referencing that you are in the States - so many YTers assume all their watchers are also in the US, and for those of us who are not (I am in Australia), we feel a bit left out!!
    I am starting your chevron blanket in a variegated yarn next week on holidays!

    So I tried something slightly different and started the same way I would normally end. I then flipped the yarn so the chain look stitch was facing down and started my pattern with pulling loops through the back side of the chain loop. I continued with my pattern and the very first row looks just like the end row. You might have to play with it first to get the hang of doing it this way but I like that the beginning looks the same as the end!

    The best way to get a chain at the bottom is to start with a chain as you would with normal knitting and flip the chain over and start knitting through the bumps in the back of the chain. Hope that helps.

    Hi….please, if you could, tell me how to add width to my loop yarn blanket. I have about three feet done, and realized it is not wide enough. I don’t want to start over. I started with 72 loops at my base. I thought that would be enough for the width. I’m doing the herringbone pattern. Maybe that cinched it up more then the regular stitch..I don’t know..thank you in advance, Cindy…

  • @madelinesaborio1004

    How do you stop your loop blanket from curling if you're only using a knit stitch? Do you need to start and stop each row with a purl stitch? And how do you switch from one to another properly?

  • @marthai8258
    @marthai8258 Před 4 lety

    I’m making a blanket and saw I missed a loop at the left edge (went from 19 loops to 18). I’ve knitted about 2 ft from the missed loop 🤦🏻‍♀️ is there a quick fix? I’d love a video on how to fix various mistakes. Please help!

  • @MsSarah819
    @MsSarah819 Před 3 lety

    Is there a way to fix a flaw in the yarn where a loop is like missing or got pulled out or something? Like it's just straight and extra long between two loops. I am already most of the way through the skein and it sounds like I can't return it since I've worked it and also I don't want to have to start all over bc I've already had to a number of times. Any advice would be greatly appreciated bc I've had this happen several different time so I've got at least 3 projects where I'm stuck and can't move forward.

    I have just started with the loop yarns and I'm on a blanket that asks you to skip loops. In regular crochet or knit, I know how, but I'm confused in the instructions to know how to do this. Can you explain.

    • @GoodKnitKisses
      @GoodKnitKisses  Před 3 lety

      You wouldn’t work the loop, just ignore it and go to the next one. But it depends on the overall pattern since the needle pattern might rely a bit in the ladder yarn between the stitches to create an effect by the row after.
