I’m starting a series of videos on short row methods. The first video focuses on wrap and turn short rows – without picking up the wraps. This is my favorite method to use for garter stitch, since I think it looks the absolute best of all the techniques in that fabric.
You can use this method in other fabrics as well. It will leave a noticeable purl bar, so keep that in mind. It may look fine in some lace fabrics, or if you want to draw attention to the short rows.
Next week I’ll cover wrap and turn short rows where the wraps get picked up and hidden.
I am a TKGA certified Master Knitter, Tech Editor and Knitting Instructor. I am also a current Co-Chair of the TKGA Master Hand Knitting committee, the managing Editor of the K2TOG newsletter, a member of the Cast On editorial committee, and a current instructor of the TKGA Professional Knitter certification. I have been designing knitwear and teaching knitting since 2007. My family keeps me busy, since I'm a stay-at-home and homeschooling mom of 2 boys. When I am not knitting, designing or teaching (my boys or knitters!) I can be found spinning yarn, reading or in the outdoors camping and hiking with my family.
