Lifelines

6 Comments

  1. Wow–I never thought of putting a lifeline after I discovered a mistake. I usually put a lifeline every so often in case I make a mistake. I was just telling my daughter about lifelines last night–she was very upset because she dropped several end stitches on a blanket she was working on. She was going to just throw it away but now she won’t have to. She can do just what you did in this video. Thank you from both me and her!!

  2. OH.MY.GOD – how did I never know about lifelines before??? Brilliant! (not that i’ve been knitting that long, but still!) This will save me soooo many headaches in the future. Thanks so much!

  3. Like Sheila, it never occurred to me that I could insert a lifeline after I noticed a mistake. I’m a big believer in putting them in as I go when I’m knitting lace.

    And — I love your nail polish! What color is it???

  4. I would love to be able to download your videos to iTunes and then put them on my iPod. So many times I am on a plane and knitting and need a great reference like these for a stitch etc.
    Have you thought about making these available for downloading or even create a podcast so the videos can go onto an iPod?
    As you can see I am a big fan and love the videos. Thanks for sharing your passion.

  5. Staci, as usual, awesome! I am a fairly experienced knitter, but you always bring me something new. Thank you! Because I believe if someone gives an inch, I must take a mile (I know! Rude!), I wanted to ask you if you might be willing to do a video some time down the line about techniques (throwing vs. continental, for example). I love the way you knit, and so quickly! I want to learn to do it (I’m a thrower, and it seems slow to me)! People around me keep having babies, and since I’m the only one who knits… well I spend most of every weekend making tiny sweaters. Also, while I’m asking, I’ll echo Janna and request info on your nail color, too!

  6. My nail polish is nothing special…it’s just an eggplant color that I bought at the drug store. The secret is to use OPI Chip Skip with dark nail polish. It makes it last forEVAH.
