Knitting Help - Make 1 (M1)

Can you do a tutorial how to make the cardigan that you are wearing? I want to make the same kind of cardigan but I dont know how to, the armholes part always is the hardest part for me

very clear and helpfull, thank you!

Thank you so much for this video, and the others you post.  You are definitely becoming my go-to for knitting instructions!! Please keep up the good work!

Hi! I love your videos! I was looking at a sweater pattern that only said M1 for the raglan increases. It doesn't specify which ones to use. How do you know which one to do?

Hii I know i how to do the M1L or M1R but I can't tell which one is which. How do you distinguish while knitting them? Thanks!

Love this! Your video is easy to understand and follow. I like the way you explain the M1R and M1L. I haven't had a pattern specify, so in general is M1 "technically" an M1R?

thank you so much. I am picking up knitting after knitting as a child. Thanks so much. So easy to understand!!

Love your videos--they are my go-to whenever I need to know how to make a particular stitch/CO/BO. I was wondering about that pink cardigan on the dummy behind you in the video. I love it--it's exactly what I'm looking for and if love to knit one up. Any chance you could point me to the pattern for it??

I'm looking for a video to help me FIX a missed M1 . thank you.

thank you for these mini lessons. i tried to learn how to knit about 20 yrs ago just by following the instructions in a how-to book, but I stopped because I was really bad at it. I have found that with any kind of crafting, I learn better with visual aid. Hopefully, I'll stick with it and improve as I practice I always had issues with the tension in my work, both with crocheting and knitting. Some of my stitches are really loose and the others are really tight. What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it?

Thank you 🐨

I think I'm coming up with the same result by picking the bar up with my left needle so I don't have to transfer it from the right to the left. (being left-handed, that is more natural for me). For M1 right, I use my left needle to pick up the bar from the back, then knit . For M1 left, I pick up the stitch from the front with my left needle and knit through the back. Does that sound right?

My pattern calls for a slip first Stitch and then M1, yo, k1 then continue with fishnet Stitch. Won’t this increase Stitch count by 2?

Nice

Staci, I was wondering instead of transferring the stitch from the right to the left needle, why isn't the stitch just picked up with the left needle from front to back, then isn't it ready to knit from there? Thanks.

I watched you again and think I answered myself. If I pick up with my left needle from front to back then knit it, it would be like knitting a yarn over, which would leave a bigger hole. However, I could still avoid the transfer by picking up the bar from back to front then it would knit like yours, giving that little twist to make it look more "real". Thanks for your big yarn. It is easy to see.

Would you please do a video tutorial on how to correct a make one right, e.g. I’ve done a make one left instead of a make one right. I need to know how to make this correction when I discover this mistake after knitting a few rows. And vice versa. Love your idea tutorials.

Thank you so much Staci! You have helped more than you'll ever truly know. I've been battling cancer and over illnesses over the last 9 years and knitting and other maker-ly things have gotten me through some extremely hellish times. I would not have been able to make many of the things I've loved without your help. So know what you have done by taking the time to share your love and knowledge with us really means something and is valuable. God Bless you as you have blessed all of us! 💚🙏🏻

Love your tutorials. Brisk and to the point. So easy to watch and easy to learn from. Thanks.

Thank you! straight to the point, perfectly explained. :)

This was easy to follow - thank you very much

Very helpful,thank you☺️

Love your tutorials! Easy to watch and follow along. Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thank you Staci, I've been knitting for 70 years and didn't know many of your stitches, including these. I never have trouble seeing what you are doing by just watching on full screen, and repeat if necessary (or forgotten!)

Thank you. I was doing it all wrong.

Your videos are so helpful, thank you for sharing. I have a question in regards to M1, if the pattern does not specify whether to Right Lean or Left Lean a M1, in that it just says M1, which one is default, M1L or M1R?

this the best of the M1's

Thank you so much for this short and helpful video. I was creating holes in my knitting and you helped me fix that.

Thank so much this is very clear for me, but in my pattern I have 15 sts and show me K1, (M1,K1) to end - 29 sts...I do not really understand how I can get 29 sts? Can you help me please? thank you so much.

I taught myself how to knit from a book around 40 yrs ago. Now that I watch your videos I see I’m making many mistakes. I’m knitting a baby sweater from top down ( new for me) and the pattern calls for M1 K1. Does that mean I increase 1 stitch and knit the increased stitch or do I make the stitch knit it and knit another regular stitch as well? How I wish there were iPads 40 yrs. ago. Your videos are wonderful.

I just “discoverd” you. You are a very good teacher. Very clear explanations Thank you from Switzerland

You are the very best knitting instructor ever! So helpful and clear, perfectly explained and demonstrated - I love all your Slow Motion videos and all your regular speed videos - whenever I need assistance I only look at yours now for everything! Thank you SO MUCH!! Ann from UK!

excellent thank you

Thank You!

DK in the knitting pattern

You're the best!

O

I'm ecstatic that I found you again!! You are the best for clear explanations!! I have learning disabilities and struggle with instructions, so finding your site has been fantastic!! Thank so very much for your tutorials!!

Nice video, but it needs to be closer up. Couldn't see what you were doing.

Thank you..I appreciate all the information and instructions that you provide.
I only wish my fingers would " flick" the way yours do. Thank you again, I am a better knitter in gratitude to you...💛

This is such a tricky one for me so I appreciate the nice clear instructions. I’ve come to depend on your channel for that also I always recommend your videos to new knitters

Staci, these videos are great example of the benefits to the new Knitter's Pride Day & Nite needle set! I just watched your review of them this morning, then tonight came here for a refresher on the m1R/m1L. As I was staring closely at screen to see which way you were picking up the bar, I instantly wished you had your black/birch needles to turn and let the pink yarn show up better. Thanks for all your tutorials. Even though I have been knitting over 60 years, I need sometimes to refresh my techniques memories. 👍👍🌺🌺

Thank you so much! Straight to the point. Much appreciated.

you are a very good teacher. I struggled with this stitch FOR YEARS.

I am working on a shawl and for the life of me, could not figure out why I was getting a hole. Thank you for clarifying.
😊

m1 and m1r and m1l what different with 3 of them ?
