Learn Continental Knitting | Beginner’s Tutorial for Knit & Purl Stitches | Slow Demo Lesson

This video provides beginners with a slow walkthrough of how to do continental style knitting – both knit and purl stitches – and talks about the challenges of learning this method, especially if you are an English knitter usually.

I start with a demo of the stitches, and then (at around 3:00) I start going through each step slowly in the main lesson.

This is not designed to be a fast tutorial; I’ve gone through the steps slowly on purpose so that a beginner can hopefully easily follow it. I’m not an expert at it by any means, but I hope I have got the method across…after that, it’s all just practice!

Thanks for watching, and I hope this video helps you 🙂
