FREE VIDEO - BAMBOO STITCH

There is a new free video on HOW TO KNIT THE BAMBOO STITCH on the web-site. This is my version of the BAMBOO STITCH which I make easier by adding one stitch. It's done on a multiple of two stitches. On most BAMBOO instructions it tells you to start with a Yarn Over (YO) on an even number of stitches, but this can be difficult. For that reason I add the one stitch. Therefore you would start with an uneven number of stitches. The stitch is easy. It takes two rows to complete the pattern. It looks good on both sides so is good for scarves and shawls, but the true BAMBOO look is on the right (knit) side. Have fun with this stitch and keep watching for more new free videos every week.

ANOTHER NEW FREE VIDEO-FAIR ISLE ON CIRCULAR NEEDLES 2

Here's an easy, up close, demonstration of HOW TO DO A SIMPLE FAIR ISLE STITCH ON A CIRCULAR NEEDLE. It's different from the last video because this time the stitches will be leaning to the other side. As with the first one, I did it with only one stitch, but you can do the same technique using two, three or more stitches. I know you can because by now those of you who have been watching all my videos are pros!
Keep watching for more videos and Happy Knitting!

NEW FREE VIDEO - FAIR ISLE ON CIRCULAR

I've added a new FREE VIDEO. It's a demonstration of a very simple fair isle stitch done on circular needles. It's a diagonal which I've done with one stitch of a second color, but you could change it to 2 or 3. I've done it leaning one way. In the next video I'll show how to lean it the opposite way. Knitting on circular needles is really easy. Don't be afraid. You can easily add patterns to your knitting. The most important thing is to be sure to put a stitch marker at the beginning of the row so you'll know where one row ends and another begins. I use a corresponding colored strand of yarn tied over the needle to do that. Give it a try and happy knitting!
