There are two main ways to undo a row of knitting: tinking and frogging.
The term "tink" is "knit" spelled backwards. In this technique, each stitch is undone one stitch at a time. Insert the tip of the left needle front-to-back into the center of the stitch just below the first stitch on the right needle. Drop the first stitch on the right needle and gently tug the working yarn so the loop of the unwanted stitch is pulled out. Repeat with each individual stitch to the point where things first went wrong.
The second technique, "frogging," is generally used when more than one row of knitting must be ripped out. It's called "frogging," because "rip-it, rip-it" is the sound a frog makes. It is faster than tinking which is both good and bad. It doesn't take long to frog but it is easy to go too far. Simply drop all the stitches off the needle and pull the working yarn until all the offending rows are gone. Then re-thread the needle through the remaining live stitches.
A little pre-planning can make frogging safer. Find the row you wish to rip back to and carefully insert the left needle into the stitch of the last row you wish to keep. Always insert the needle starting with the left most stitch and always insert it from the front to the back. This will orient the stitches on the needle normally so that none are accidentally twisted when knitting is resumed.
Another technique for controlled frogging involves inserting a "safety line." When you have completed a row that is correct, thread a piece of scrap thread through each stitch without removing the stitches from the needle. Use a very smooth thread, such as mercerized crochet cotton in a contrasting color.
It means decrease row.
Stocking Stitch (knit a row, purl a row, repeat)
A diamond-shaped knitting pattern is popular on sweaters and vests. The diamond pattern is made by knitting and purling, increasing on each row until you get to the mid-row on the diamond, then working the pattern in reverse to complete the diamond.
You cannot chop a tree down with a knitting needle as the needle does not have a sharp edge. You could bore it down if you lived long enough.
Cast on. Put the original row of loops on the needle.
rnd is the abbreviation for round meaning one row
No, in knitting MS does not mean front and wrong side of the row. MS means moss stitch. In this type of stitch, you knit two two rows of the same sequence (purl or knit) and then alternate them.
knit one (probably referring to one stitch unless it says row after it)
Initially have one extra stitch in the row. When you join, knit the last stitch together (knitting 2 together, in effect) with the first one.
According to wikipedia: ""Tricot is a special case of warp knitting, in which the yarn zigzags vertically, following a single column ("wale") of knitting, rather than a single row ("course"), as is customary. Tricot and its relatives are very resistant to runs, and are commonly used in lingerie."Tricot knitting is usually done with machines, and is used for track clothing, and bike shorts. This form of knitting is found in vintage knitting patterns, but is not much in favor for hand knitting.
Knitting wins hands down!But I feel I my come up with some fierce oppostistion!
Two rows. Even the back side of the garment is a row, so count it as such or the pattern won't come out right.
