![A better way to knit German short rows [and why yours may look all wrong]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/i_F8A5Lyz88/mqdefault.jpg)
Exceptionally good video quality: I can see what's going on. Excellent verbal instructions too, which helps because I am not, on the whole, a visual learner. I'm a fairly new knitter, and finding Ms. Bryan has been most reassuring. What a pro!!!
Thank you Catherine Wallace! Happy knitting.
❤❤❤ The BEST explanation of German short row in Continental style I have ever come across. Thank you.
I share a hobby with my girlfriend where we knit together. I have just started recently and often times need help from her as she is infinitely better than I am. However, due to corona, we have not been able to knit together. My sock was in grave danger until my girlfriend recommended your video. It's been an absolute lifesaver. Thanks to your video, I think my sock will get to see the light of day. Thank you very much Suzanne, and happy knitting.
Wonderful! Happy New Year!
Your videos are always so clear and easy to follow. Exactly what I needed to see. Thank you!
Suzanne, This video is EXCELLENT!!! I've always knitted the gusset/pickup stitches flap & heel and tried this yesterday!!! WONDERFUL!!!!! Thanks so much for all you do for the knitting world!!! My first German Short Row heel turned out great!!!!
That is so wonderful Glen. Thank you and happy knitting.
I have been struggling so much with short rows, making socks with holes and getting myself in such a pickle. This is such a clear explanation. Thank you!
You are very welcome, Claire! I appreciate your kind feedback!
Excellent. Love that you said to knit one more stitch before turning (because this way the correct stitch is processed).
+Amy St. Amour Thanks for the comment Amy.
I can't thank you enough for your videos. Since I have discovered your channel, I rarely venture to other sites for instruction.
You are welcome. Be sure to refer your friends, I am really trying to build up my channel subscribers and views. Happy Knitting!
Excellent clear video. Short and to the point. Thank you for making this video.
Thank you so much. Be sure to share my videos with your social media groups and friends. Hugs and Happy Knitting.
Wow! Thank you! I don’t knit continental but after watching you I might just be able to learn. I have done the wrap and turn method but German short rows were indicated in my pattern, I’m definitely going to give this a try!
Thanks a lot for this short and SUCH A CLEAR explanation of the technique! I was always intimidated by German short rows, but now I totally understand how they work.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for such an easy to follow video. I have been wanting to do this type of short row for a while and your instructions are clear and precise. I am now confident to try these short rows.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for all the instruction you put here. You have been very helpful to me.
Wonderful! Thank you for the feedback! Happy knitting.
truly, the most beautiful and clear explanation. Thank you a million
You are very welcome Cyril France-Jackson! Happy knitting.

Suzanne, your explanations are clear and concise. When I need help, you are my "go to" CZcams channel!!!!
Thank you Eileen, that's so wonderful to hear!
Another brilliant tutorial. The breadth of your knowledge is just staggering.

Wow, thank you!
So happy to have your video pop up in my scrolling tonight. Now I feel confident to try knitting a sweater! I've tried wrap n turn but couldn't master it. This video was so easy to understand.
Thank you Jerrie Cook! Happy knitting.

So clear (sehr klar!) Thank you!
Very clear instructions!! Thank you!
You are very welcome! Happy knitting.
Thank you for clear instructions for this technique.
You are so welcome, Lynne! 😊
Thank you so much for doing it continental!! Its so much easier. Now I understand what the whole "double stitch" thing is.
+DiscoveredNotCreated You are very welcome. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you, the German short row looks much neater then the w&t method and easier to see
You are the best! Thank you.

Gracias!! Un abrazo y besos desde Chile 🇨🇱
Thank you! I have a knitting friend who lives in Santiago
@@SuzanneBryan que coincidencia, yo también vivo en Santiago ♥️ aunque me gustaría vivir en el sur de Chile, es hermosisimo.
Hi Suzanne - As always, a great video. My question is this: If my ribbing is K2tog tbl, P2, and I'm on the wrong side at a purl stitch when I resolve the short row stitch, will purling through the back row maintain the continuity of the rib? Thank you!
Brilliant, 👌👌👌👌👋👋👋👏👏👏👏
Thank you very much!
You're so welcome, Dollyce! 😊
Thank you.
You are great🎉
Thanks so much, Marcia! 😊
Would you knit to the end of the row even when you have multiple shortrows like in the heel turn of a sock?
+Michael Max Girl I knit to the end, just as part of the demonstration of how to work the German Short Row turn. If you were working a heel turn of a sock, you would work to the next turn rather than to the end of the row. Let me know if this answers your question. Thanks for watching my video.
Ooh, so easy. Not scared of them now.
Yay! You can do this, Patricia!! ❤️
Hi, I have a question. When the pattern states work 34 stitches in ribbing and turn, then slip the stitch from left needle to the right, pull yarn to the back to show double stitch then it states next row work 36 stitches, turn, slip stitch and so on, does the slip stitch count as the first stitch of the next row of 36 I have to do? Or once I turn slip the stitch pull yarn to the back then continue with pattern that the next stitch I work would count as the first stitch of the 36 I have to do. My pattern is back and forth at the back of the neck and as I go from row to row I’m adding additional stitches for example work 33 and turn, work 37 and turn and so on increasing on each side. Hope my question makes sense, thank you!
This is great
Glad you liked it, happy knitting.
Is it the same procedure for knitting in the round?
So if a pattern says to k2 ,turn and work a GSR, how do you do that? Is one of those knit stitches the one you slip? Having trouble understanding?
The first stitch after you turn is the one that you will slip to the right needle and create a double stitch.
Finally a way for me to knit nearly invisible short rows! So much less fiddly than the normal method.
Perfect!
This method is very useful and perfect. Thanks for this clear video. For more invisible short rows, i recommend you to try Shadow Wrap Short Rows technique. It is also easy and beautiful.
If my pattern says to knit to 5 stitches before the last wrapped stitch then would I knit 1 past that and knit to 4 stitches before the last wrapped stitch?
If your pattern says to knit to 5 stitches before the last wrapped stitch, then yes, you would knit until 4 stitches before the last wrapped stitch
(I meant will purling through the back of the stitch maintain the continuity of the rib?)
My short rows - both wrap & turn on garter stitch and also gsr - are loose and sloppy - what am I doing wrong? I pull tight but still are loose and sloppy - trying to out picture in without success.
This is a great question Barbara. I too had many times where my short row turns did not look good. It took lots of practice ands lots of swatching to improve. There are many ways to work short row turns and I also tried all of those. Now I am better at it. It just takes time and practice.
Nice
Thanks 🧶
I have one question so when you are doing these short rows and it says “knit to 5 stitches before last “wrapped stitch” is that actually 5 or do you do one more stitch and do to the last 4 like the extra stitch you talk about here?
Never mind I see you answered the question! Thank you!!
Great.
Very easy to understand, thank you. Now, if only I could understand how it applies in the shawl pattern I am knitting :/
Thank you Suzanne for this, it looks like it works for me only when I knit back and forward like you here in this tutorial. When I knit in the round, I have holes on one side... any ideas why it that and how it could be done without any hole please?
Check out the other video I have on the German Short Row Heel - czcams.com/video/Ex_4oc7ZyLQ/video.html. I think that will give you the answer that you want. Happy knitting.
I can do it fine on the purl side, but when I get to the knit side it doesn't work. I pull the yarn forward, slip purlwise, and pull up, but it doesn't make a double stitch like it should. It just makes a big knot and when I loosen it up and flatten it out, it makes a triple stitch.
Be sure to remember to slip the stitch to the right needle first, with the yarn in front. then pull the yarn up and over the needle to the back and continue to the left needle. It is worked the same from both WS and RS.
@@SuzanneBryan that's what I did...im on the knit side, I bring the yarn forward between the needles, I slip purlwise from the left needle to the right needle, and pull the yarn up, directly over the right needle, and pull it down in the back to continue knitting. But it just makes a big knot.
keep practicing and watching videos. You will get it sooner or later.
If you contact me on Ravelry, I will give you my email address and you can send me a picture or video of what you are doing and then I can help you better.
What is accomplished by German Short Rows?
Hi Stacy! Is your question specific to German Short Rows or Short rows in general? So generally speaking, short rows can help add length for bust shaping, adding length to back or the neck, etc. Basically for garment shaping. German Short Rows are what I prefer, but it is always a manner of personal preference.
Suzanne, would you please show this in English method?
Thank you for the suggestion, I am adding this to my video todo list.
I don't know why I don't run to get the smartphone before knitting a new technique. Why do I follow poor instructions and only then go to watch your videos knowing there must be a nicer way...
On rs : 0:40 purl
On ws : 1:26 knit
Thanks for the time stamps Jul. Happy Knitting!
Ваш голос заколисує як колискова)
Thank you and happy knitting.
It samma for me that this tipe of german short raws are to make socks.
You can use them any time you want to use short rows. Socks or anything else. Thank you and happy knitting.
I do worry that I'll lose track of the double stitch and I use a marker because you'd expect that tension to work its way out,
Seems it doesn't though.
