Very useful again thank you! I have slowed down the speed and your voice is very funny. 😊

The best video ever. For the 1st time the host shows the back of the work, this is so helpful for me. Your explanations & up-close views are the best I have watched. Thank you so much Suzanne.

Wonderful, Muoi Muoi! Knitting should definitely be enjoyable! 😉

Thank you so much for this helpful video! My first time seaming moss stitch with a selvedge edge and I ripped it out 5 times because it looked so sloppy...your technique worked perfectly.

Thank you so much for all the information you generously give. You truly have taught me how to knit. I knew how to knit, purl, and rib - that was it. Now I make hats, sweaters, scarves, and even tights for my daughter! Most of them are my own design thanks to all the lessons you put on UKposts!!!!! Thank you again for sharing your knowledge!! I very much appreciate your willingness to share, you are amazing!

Sandi, you have made my day! Thank you so much! This is exactly why I make videos. Thank you! Happy knitting.

I love the finished look of the third swatch with the stockinette stitch edge. It reminds me of a french seam in sewing.

@carolinesheffield5434 4 роки тому

I could never have made it through the first level of TKGA without your expertly crafted, crystal clear videos! So glad to see that the help continues! A million thanks!

Thank you! It's so helpful to see seaming of pieces that aren't stockinette stitch. Mine were box stitch -- sort of supersized seed stitch -- and this was exactly what I needed. I've just completed the most beautiful seams of my knitting life.

Wonderful!

Hi Suzanne! I'm seaming up the sides of my sweater that has seed stitch panels at the edges, and I'm using method no. 2. I'll, of course, post in it the Facebook group when it's all done! You mention in the video that the bar can be hard to find after zipping up every few inches, but my little trick is to grab the next bar you would go into with a locking stitch marker (or whatever you might have available) so you don't have to go digging for it. Then after zipping, the bar is there to continue seaming 😊

@SuzanneBryan 2 роки тому

Good idea, Lenny! Looking forward to seeing the finished garment! 😊

HI Suzanne, Thank you for your wonderful mattress stitch videos. I made kimono sweaters for twin infants and used someone else's tutorial for the first side seaming- was not happy at all with the outcome......then found yours and OH my!!- the best finishing I have ever done. Thank you...I shall return for more of your wisdom and wonderful teaching.

@SuzanneBryan 3 роки тому

Wonderful!

@patttakeuchi2807 5 років тому

I have been knitting for many decades than I wish to admit! But my finishing hasn't always been great. I have learned so much from you. I would often knit a sweater and then hesitate for weeks before I would put it together because I knew my finishing knowledge was limited. Your videos are perfect. Thank you so much for helping me. Do you have a video showing how to seam seed stitch from the shoulder edge?

@SuzanneBryan 5 років тому

Working on it! Hugs and Happy Knitting!

Thank you for your wonderful lessons! I finished one fingerless glove flat on 2 needles and it looked good. Yikes! I underestimated the art of seaming. It was awful. I’m so glad to see your video! I’ll practice this with confidence now before starting over. Thank you so much Suzanne!

This is so wonderful to hear, Mary, thank you! I have every confidence that with practice you'll have an amazing garment! ❤️

@laylavonmav2587 5 років тому

Just in time. I knitted a seed stitch sweater in bulky yarn. I used the first method, using the purl bumps, because my fabric is quite heavy, I didn’t want it to stretch and sag. I used another of your videos to pick the collar stitches on the neckline. The results were fantastic, a great collar line and fit. I have learned so much from you, my knitting has improved so much, it has reignited my love for knitting. Another one of my hobbies is sewing, so I know that fit, seaming and finishing a garment is important to wear it, and to like wearing it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Thanks for your great videos. Can you show how to stitch up a seam when there is a garter stitch edge on a stocking stich knit please. Thank you

@SuzanneBryan 2 роки тому

Are you speaking of seaming garter rows to St st rows? Let me know exactly and I will make a video for you.

@emmyjay53 2 роки тому

@@SuzanneBryan Hi Suzanne, The pattern has one garter edge on each edge of the pieces. So its garter stitch, to garter stitch. This method of knitting a garter stitch on the edge is supposed to help with the piece not curling so much. I have followed your mattress stitch tutorial and this seems to work. I don't think I will use this method of using a garter stitch on the edges in future if any other pattern calls for it. Thanks for your help.

@SuzanneBryan 2 роки тому

Got it, seaming garter to garter rows - here is a video that may help. - this is on seaming seed stitch, but it is the same method with garter stitch - ukposts.info/have/v-deo/aolmq2t4aWuAuXk.html

@TheSuzberry 5 років тому

Another terrific learning tool: clear, well paced and easy to follow. I’ve seen descriptions of mattress stitch where you go under two “bars” rather than one. Is there a situation where one method is preferred? Thank you.

@SuzanneBryan 5 років тому

Thank you! I prefer seaming under one bar. Just personal preference. I have an upcoming video on comparing seaming methods in Stockinette and I will include a version showing 2 bars vs 1 bar. Thanks and happy knitting.

@CassieDA17 5 років тому

This was very informative. I wish I saw this before I started my project so I could add a stockinette selvage stitch. I'm trying to seam together two vertical edges on a modified seed stitch pattern where the edges are not all the same stitches or even every other (knit and purl) and it's my first project where I need to seam. Having a bit of anxiety about it

@SuzanneBryan 5 років тому

It will work out. Use a good light. Happy knitting.

@lacullen3507 Рік тому

I love this video.. I vertical seams are invisible. I am joining squares for a blanket. Cast off was in Moss. Do you have a video that show joining co and cf edges? that would leave a similar seem to your method 1 on this video? Thank you

@sarahswanson9205 4 роки тому

Hi this is a great video, thank you Do you have a video seaming the cast off and cast on edges together as the moss/seed stitch goes the other way? I found it difficult to find the horizontal bars going this way.

@SuzanneBryan 4 роки тому

Not yet, but adding to my video todo list. Thank you.

@leetingchin9216 5 років тому

Hi, I enjoy your tutorials tremendously as I just started knitting again after a good 5 years and they refresh my skills. You mentioned you darn in after seaming, what would you do with the joined yarn along the edges? Do you weave them in after seaming too? Thank you.

@SuzanneBryan 5 років тому

Yes, I weave them in after seaming. If you weave them in before, they tend to distort the seam or make it hard to find where to seam.. Happy Knitting.

@deborahstone5749 Рік тому

I recently came across your videos and I thank you so much as my seams are not the greatest either even though I have been knitting since I was a teenager. I do a lot of baby clothes but am working on a sweater for me which has the seed stitch panel edging. Which method is better for a sweater seam 1 or 2? Maybe 2 because of the little bit of stretch? Looking forward to your reply!

@Em-fz6eb 4 роки тому

Hi Suzanne, thank you so much for the informative video! For your third method, with the stockinette selvedge, do you slip the first/last stitch or work it twice?

@SuzanneBryan 3 роки тому

No slipped stitches on selvedge edge when seaming.

@elizabethlewis1781 14 днів тому

Which one should I use to attach seed stitich at the shoulders? There is a cast off, of course. I am a beginner. Thanks

@Woodlawn22 5 років тому

More great techniques. Thanks, Suzanne. Note: the white samples are harder to see than when you use the green for some reason. The camera almost made them look blurry. Maybe it's just me.

@SuzanneBryan 5 років тому

Thank you. I appreciate your feedback. I will make adjustments in future. Happy knitting.

@batya7 5 років тому

The green is very clear at all magnifications. The white was more defined at the higher magnification. However, overall for me, these 2 colors contrast and show stitch definition well.

Good question, Anita! It is actually TKGA, and stands for The Knitting Guild Association, it is the gold standard of Master Knitting Programs. I will post a link, in case you're interested in pursuing certification. tkga.org
