Knit Basics | Ripping Your Knitting

When you start knitting there will always be times where you need to rip out or 'frog' your work. This video gives you an overview of how you can easily rip out your work and get started again quickly.

  1. Take the needles out and rip back to one row before you want to be.
  2. Now move slowly, putting the needle into the base below the next stitch and then pulling out the yarn when the stitch is on the needle.
  3. Always take care to mount your stitch correctly, with the right leg at the front of your left needle.
