Knitting Backwards

May 28th, 2007

I hate purling, and when I’m doing flat stockinette where I have to do long stretches of purl, purl, purl, I do something a little different. I’ve explained it on this blog before, but I recently made a 30 second clip of me doing it for a forum post. I figured I’d share it here. This is good for people who knit English with the yarn on the right finger.

Backwards Knitting

Recently while I was doing my Branching Out scarf, I actually got a bit of practice with doing purl and knit backwards in the same row for wrong side rows. It took some time, but I feel much more comfortable with it now.
