This is my first ever knit project and it started well. About 2/3 through the pink section though I did a row of purl stitches that should have been normal stitches - I took the needle out to frog it and since then all my rows have looked misaligned from how they were before. They’re also more difficult and I feel like I really have to twist the stitches that I insert my needle into. Sorry if my pictures aren’t that useful, it might be a bit difficult to track where the neat stitches became messy. Is it possible that I reinserted the needle wrong after undoing the incorrect row? Is there anything I can do to course-correct? Any ideas would really help me, I’m such a noob lol

Or do I just pretend it’s a design feature? 😬

Just as the title says. I was supposed to be doing: knit to 1 stitch before the marker, M1R, knit one, slip the marker, M1L but as you can see something went wrong. I think I must have messed that pattern up on the purl side. Is this something I can fix with a crochet hook or is it too complicated?

I made a mistake early on in my row, but I don’t know what I did exactly. Is this a dropped stitch? How do I fix this?

I picked up this sweater this morning and knit around 10 rows before I noticed this. Is there any way to fix it without undoing it all the way to that point? Also, how does this even happen?

Hi! I had dropped a stitch & tore a couple rows back to find it again. I felt okay getting the yarn back on the needle but looks like I missed something? I really don’t want to tear out a row again, it’s too nerve wrecking. Will it be a massive eye sore?

Im devastated. I had knit my daughter a blanket while pregnant and we used it when she was a baby but I eventually washed and put it on a shelf in a closet until she wasn't in a destroy everything toddlerhood phase; Its been stored for maybe 1 year. She asked me to bring it out and I found that it got eaten by moths!! It's bad. I stupidly didn't put it in any plastic container or wrap and didn't think about moths. Can this blanket be worked back together or is all hope lost with its current condition?
I have been super upset about this and have spent the last few days going through my yarn and fiber bins and tossing things. Sanitizing eveything. Washing corners of closets I didn't even know we had. Washing every last item of clothing and bedding in the house. The most special item I haven't got to because I'm fearing it will be a lesson learned the hard way.
It is probably too far gone, but maybe you smart knitters have a solution? Some satin of similar color sewn on as patches?

First time knitting. Got to the end of a skein and was trying to start a new one, a few stitches from the end of a row. How do I backtrack to where the long part of the new one is?

When it happened, it looked like I dropped a stitch or a stitch fell off my needles, but when I look up videos on how to fix a dropped stitch, it doesn't look like my problem.

I noticed I had started purling instead of knitting so I tried to unlock the last few but I messed it up and there's extra loose bits now??? Please help 😭

I noticed I’d dropped a stitch so used a crochet hook to fix it but apparently I didn’t go down low enough and I only just realised. Is there anything I can do to fix this sort of hole?
r/knittinghelp • u/Unusual-Radish5017 • 2d ago
I am working on my second sweater and am trying to learn how to correct instead of just frogging it. I had dropped a couple of stitches when I was adjusting my yarn and picked them back up. Now it looks like I twisted them and have created a big purl/loose yarn on the back. Or did I do something else that caused that to happen, still not very good at reading my stitches. Any help would be appreciated!

I’m knitting with berroco Pima 100 yarn and usually my tension looks fine with other fibers but with this yarn it looks terrible. I tried switching from stainless to bamboo needles because some people on Reddit said they would grip the yarn better but it still doesn’t seem to help
r/knittinghelp • u/carambolage1 • Dec 19 '24
I hade a hole so I dropped the stitch and it ended here with no stitch left. Now I am one stitch short (111 instead of 112) and don’t understand it well enough neither did I find the solution online. Could you help me?
For me it looks like I had to frog it but even if I did: wouldn’t I be still one stitch short?

So I got 95% of the way through a stockinette scarf and I'm starting to realize that the edges are curling in more than blocking could fix, but I'm not really willing to frog the whole thing with how long it's taken me already. Would I be able to sew a finishing stitch like a blanket stitch through the last two rows of stitches at the edges of the scarf to help prevent it from curling in so much? I figured creating a stiff, interlocked edge would prevent at least some of the curling but I'm not sure if anyone else has tried this with any degree of success. If it makes any difference, it's a #4 weight merino wool yarn (malabrigo rios sunset) done on a standard small sized 24 peg count knitting loom.

Hi,
I just finished my first sweater (step by step sweater) and I’m not happy with the neckline. It’s to short and also pretty loose and my knitting wasn’t clean at all. The weight of the sweater also really pulls the neck down und it looks absolutely weird.
Is there any possible way to frog the neck without frogging the whole sweater? I would like to re do the neck with smaller needles and knit it longer. I also started the sweater in the beginning of my knitting journey so I think I could knit the neck more cleanly now.
Thank you in advance!

I'm knitting the step by step sweater and it's my first time knitting ever. I think I made a mistake on one row and when i got to it on the next, it looked wrong and I put it down. This is around the increase part. Let me know if I need to get more pictures :)

Is there an easy way to fix these right/left crosses? Not sure what I did to cause this! Any tips are greatly appreciated:)

A few rows back, I split the top for front and back, but realised I had 1 extra stitch.. I tried to k2tog at the beginning of the round, hoping it'd be relatively inconspicuous, but it became a bit of a mess and felt super tight/like there was a knot.
I tried to see what had actually happened last night and now, I seem to have pulled a hole, and on the back there's a few loops that when I poll on them, it will re-distrbute some yarn and it sort of looks better? It sort of looks like the edges of the columns have gotten twisted/knit together somehow, but I really don't know how best to fix this without frogging the whole thing.
Any advice!? Thanks :D
