I just made a knitting video to help my BFF learn how to pick up sts and then kfb. While I was setting up the camera and tripod, my husband said, “You’ve gone off the deep end…” I think not!!! I am just trying to spread the love…This past Aug I taught her how to knit while I was visiting her in Houston. She found the pattern for the Latifa Scarf on Knitty.com and we are doing a KAL. She said she couldn’t figure out how to pick the sts for the ruffle so I did what any BFF would do I showed her how. :knitting:
I remember when I was trying to figure out how to pick up sts while knitting my 1st log cabin. I just couldn’t figure it out, even with the awesome vids here at KH. I finally did get it thanks to everyone’s pictures posted, but it took a bit.
Good for you! So nice to have the modern equipment that allows a person to do something like this for a friend. In the old days you would have been out of luck. This is not “off the deep end”, this is using your resources.
With no intention to brag, I will say I am extremely intelligent, a fast study, and good with my hands. That being said, there are some things I simply can’t get until I see it done, and I need to see it in just the right way that makes sense to me.
You know your friend, so you know best how to translate skills in a way that will make most sense to her. The only deep end you jumped into is the great friend pool.
