After knit stitiching, and binding off. You will notice there are little ends leftover. Cutting it will just cause little fringes sticking out. So instead you weave the ends with a yarn needle to conceal it.
In this video you will learn how to use a couple of different methods to join two pieces of squares, swatches, or anything you knit that you want to come together to form a finish piece. Its usually used when you want to make a seam to join the front and back of a sweater, or panels of a hat. This video will first show you how to ‘weaving method’. This is my favorite because it is almost invisible, and it makes a strong seam. Second method is the ‘running stitch’. This is an easy way to bind your two pieces together. With this method you have an option of either showing the stitch for a fun color contrast, or flipping it inside out to see a seamless seam. Third method is the ‘whipstich’. Its similar to weaving, but instead you whip back around to stitch. So instead of sewing front to back then back to front, you would sew back to front whip back and sew again back to front. Itll make more sense when you watch the video. This seam gives you sort of a bounded end. Fourth is a modern edgy look using safety pins. Definetly not grandmas style.
Stockinette stitch is likely the most popular stitch. Its known for its familiar repeating vvvvvv v’s. This happens when you alternate you rows with ‘knit’ and ‘purl’ and repeat. The character of this stitch is that it sort of wants to curl into itself.
