Greetings! I’m a Knitting Instructor based in Raleigh, NC, with over 10 years experience teaching at local yarn stores and online.
This post offers a series of 5 videos for the students in the Umaro class at Hillsborough Yarn Shop in Hillsborough, NC. The Umaro Blanket pattern by Jared Flood contains lace and cables. The following videos show:
Row 1 of the chart, working increases and decreases
Row 2 of the chart, working a wrong-side row
Row 3 of the chart, working increases and decreases and moving markers
Row 7 of the chart, working the cable
Running a lifeline.
The Hitofude Cardigan requires TWO crochet chain provisional cast ons. This video shows how to do a crochet chain provisional cast on as well as how to do the first two set-up rows for the cardigan.
This video shows how to correct lace knitting mistakes on a selected number of stitches. It involves dropping down stitches and rebuilding them.
I'm teaching a class at Hillsborough Yarn Shop in Hillsborough, NC featuring the Hitofude Cardigan by Hiroko Fukatsu. This video shows you how to thread a lifeline to use later if you make a mistake and need to pull out rows to a safe spot.
