So helpful. Thank you! I am a thrower and could not find anyone that explained this for my style until your video. Duh.. It was so simple. Thanks so much!

I have subscribed to your channel... I love your instructions. I saw 33 dislikes on this video and it must be people who make their own videos and are jealous... your videos are great thank you very much. You are a great instructor, teacher whatever you prefer but whatever it is thank you.

oh my gosh, I've been knitting for 15+ years (though I still consider myself a beginner/novice knitter and am branching out to learn patterns now) and I never knew the method I learned from my German mother had a NAME. Thank you so much for showing how to do something in Continental and teaching me that my method has a name and I can search for Continental videos now!

Thank you! I have been avoiding yarn over patterns because I was sure they would be too hard for me but you make it so clear I'm ready to tackle one!

Super clear and easy to follow for an English knitter

Thank you for making this and showing how to do it in both Continental and English style, i had assumed it would be relatively the same but wanted to verify :)

Thank you, I'm just trying to work out whether the YO is the same direction as the rest of the stitches. I knit with the yarn in my right hand, but I wrap clockwise. (No, it's not combination knitting, and no, my stitches are never twisted. The leading leg is simply at the back of the needle.) I think I'll have to do a test knit to see how large the YO is depending on how I do it.

New to knitting. How do I keep from closing up the yo on the next row? I seem to be closing the yo and loosing my eyelets. Thank you for all you do to help us learn.

Thank you for this.. my pattern tells me to turn and YO. It’s the turn part that I don’t understand? Can you explain?
