Thank you so much. No awful music, no talking about other things, good camera angle, good repetition of the procedure, NO SPEEDED UP video.👍🏾🙂

Excellent! You got right to the point, explained clearly and simply, showed the process twice, and were done. I wish all tutorial videos were this well-made. Usually they are far too long, with too much talking leading up to the actual skill that’s being demonstrated, or so fast you have to replay them 10 times to see what is happening. This one is perfect.

I have not found your method in any of my knitting books. I like the fact that you don't get a hole. Your explanation and demonstration are excellent. I have looked this video up over and over again, and I now have it bookmarked. Thank you

Excellent tutorial: close-up view, plain background, minimal dialogue, slow enough to follow, repeats. Thanks.

[patriciaedwards]

Thank you. Very nicely explained. I return to this video often as I frequently forget😊. One of my bootie patterns use this. And you know I will be returning in a few months. Thank you

Thank you! I was memorizing some book patterns at Joanne's and realized I did not know what M1 meant! So easy! I've been doing this by accident from time to time 😂

This is the clearest video on this that I could find, thank you so much.

Thank you for only explainIng what to do but for also taking the time to explain it in a clear visual demonstration..

[anacarvalho]

Such a well explained video, accompanied by a great " to be seen" yarn color, speech well paced and intoned and well focused lens on the details.

Like you instruction easy to understand new to knitting thanks

[cmpcmp]

Thank you so much. You saved my sanity. I thought M1 meant increase on a stitch and this knocked my pattern totally out and increased my stitch count by the same number of M1’s. It’s so clear and so well explained. Thanks so much.

[jorjahael]

Thank you, you did it slowly and spoke clearly with out sounding condisending, bless you.

[emilyjackson]

Your video is very easy to follow, instructions are clear, and I am now confident in my m1. Thanks!

[janiedawes]

This was perfect instruction for me! Slow, clear and easily visible! I am working with super bulky yarn on US 19 needles and I AM getting a bit of a hole but your instructions are clear and I hope the holes won’t be too visible in the long run! Thank You!

[daniellen]

thank you for this! I've been avoiding m1 for so long but you made it easy

[kimmccall]

Thank you so much for this simple tutorial!
It really helped me to understand what the verbal instructions ment!

[betha.ostrander]

LOVE! Precise, SLOW to show us how, but a fast video. Terrific! Subscribed! (Just started knitting again, so need to brush up on my stitches.)

[rumphius]

Thank you. Wasn't sure how to lift bar onto left needle from back or front.Thank you for explaining and illustrating so well. Problem solved.

And thanks to your comment at the end of the video I now know why I have a hole on both sides! Thanks I’ll follow your instructions this time around:).
