Great as always. Just how deep is that bag of tricks? Thank you sooooooo much for sharing your skill and experience with us.
Patty, just wondering. In repairing the missing YO — you lifted the thread from row 6 but then you said to lift the thread from row 7 over the row 6 YO that you created. Isn’t that backwards? Aren’t you lifting the YO you just created to fix row 6 over the running thread from row 7 to make the row 7 st that worked the YO from the prior row? Maybe I misunderstood — might need more tea today. (It’s around 2:12 or so.)
Yep, that’s a one take filming session. What you see me demo is correct, I just misspoke. The YO is on row 6 and the purl back row is row 7. Needle under both running threads and then lift running thread from row 6 over row 7, and you’re done!
Thanks for the clarification. That’s how I usually do it, not how you said. (Fully understand about one-take situations!) I love your videos and classes — have recommended them for my niece, who is still a beginning knitter — I’m delighted that she’s “clicked” however!
