I'm a newbie! and I viewed several videos and I must tell you, you are the best tutor (teacher). Your voice is pleasant and the videos are easy and so helpful…keep doing what you're doing! I need you to help me learn….not just knitting but crochet as well, you are a blessing….

The best yarn over tutorial. Clarifies that the yarn over is just the yarn over and not “yarn over, knit”.

You make knitting look so easy. I'm almost tempted to learn. I'm an advad crocheter but thought about learning how to knit. Wish me luck!!

Thankyou for your video! I've always done plain stitches plus moss but I needed to know how to do these yarn fwds and yarn over for a new pattern I'm trying out and you made it look VERY simple.
Thanks for this. 💜🎉🧶

This was the most useful video I watched because it also covered the next row.  When I first did this stitch, I wondered how to do the next row.

Thank you for posting this. I consider myself an advanced knitter, but I always felt like I was not doing the yarn overs correctly. You've confirmed my suspicions!

Thanks so much for this video. I could not figure out how to yrn, then p. Was driving me crazy! Also, great that you used large needles. Was easier to see.

Warning, there is a huge mistake in her instructions! At 3:36 she says she is going to show again how to do a YO between a knit and a purl. She starts the knit stitch with the yarn in front, which creates another YO (!) instead of taking the yarn to the back then doing the knit stitch. Those following this as she does it will end up with two many stitches.

I'm a beginner. @1:23 Right when you state to work your stich as normal, it seems like you are grabbing 2 loops to stitch instead of 1. Is there a reason for this? I feel like I am close to understanding how to do yarn over, and also yarn over to purl, but I don't yet understand why you grabbed 2 loops at that point. Please, any advice. Thanks in advance to all!

I need to see a knitted yo. I know how to yo just want to make sure I’m knitting it correctly once I have come back to the yo.

Watch leisure art video for YO before and after knit. She does it so perfectly and her work comes out awesome looking.

[alindaaskew]

precisely how I do the yarn over. Some other videos are too complicated.

[adelechatelain]

I don't see how to knit a yarn over from behind that yarn over

[monicamadrid]

She is abterrible knitter. Her work looks sloppy and she stretches her yarn to much when doing the YO. And the way she holds her needles looks so uncomfortable.
