Understanding how knitting stitches actually work is perhaps the most important thing any knitter can ever learn. If you truly know how a knit stitch actually works, fixing mistakes or grafting is just an afterthought. So this video aims to bring the mechanics behind knitting stitches closer so that you will be able to read your knitting the easy way.
At their core, knitting stitches are just simple loops you pull through other loops - and that leaves you with only a couple of very simple variations. The way you construct increases or decreases is very simple and you can actually make them up as you. Yes, very few knitters actually know what they are doing when they are knitting an SSK - they follow instructions blindly without ever understanding them. And I hope this video will change it at least for some of you!
