The technique of picking up the edge stitches in knitting is useful for adding borders, for seamless garment construction etc. Picking up the number of stitches from the cast on edge or the bind off edge is more straightforward than picking up stitches from the side (vertical) edges. It is easier to insert the knitting needle and pick up the V shaped stitches (< or >) of the cast on and bind off edges. Whether working on scarves, sweaters, or intricate lace designs, understanding how to effectively pick up edge stitches is an essential skill that can elevate one’s knitting projects and experience.
One way to make picking up vertical (side edge) stitches more straightforward is to slip the last stitch in a row with yarn in front (Tutorial Series: WYIF and WYIB)

Comparison of Side Edge Stitches:

As in the images above, the V shape created by the slipped side edge stitches not only enhances the visual appeal of the knitting project but also makes it significantly easier to know exactly where to insert the knitting needle. In contrast, when there are no slipped edge stitches, determining the appropriate insertion point for the needle becomes a bit of guesswork, leading to potential frustration. Having these stitches as a reference point can greatly improve the overall experience, allowing for a smoother and more enjoyable knitting process.
Welcome to my tales of weaving adventures, misadventures and some tips I’ve learnt along the way.
Weaving dates back to Paleolithic times. It’s much older than knitting or crochet.
As a knitter and a crocheter, my interest in weaving started more as a way to reduce the amount of yarn I had, but has slowly grown into a genuine interest in the craft.
Weaving projects such as wraps or blankets can be completed in days rather than weeks or months, making it an appealing option for completing fiber related projects in a shorter time frame.
Like knitting or crocheting, I find the rhythmic motion of the loom not only satisfying but also a fascinating way to explore the colors and textures of yarn.
The ability to experiment with different weaving patterns and techniques has opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me and I find myself increasingly captivated by the endless potential weaving holds for creating beautiful, functional pieces.
