What is a life line in knitting?
A lifeline is a spare bit of thread or yarn that sits in your knitting and saves your stitches. No knitting, whether it’s lace or cables, should be without a lifeline.
How do you use Lifeline holes in knitting needles?
With a knitting needle like that there is no need for a wool needle. Simply thread the lifeline into the hole in your right needle and work the row as usual. The lifeline will be threaded through every stitch as you work through the row.
What does a lifeline do?
Philips Lifeline is an easy-to-use medical alert system that lets you summon help any time of day or night – even if you can’t speak1. All you need to do is press your medical alert button, worn on a wristband or pendant, and a Trained Care Specialist will make sure you get the help you need as fast as possible.
How do you unravel lace in knitting?
To correct it, work along the row according to the pattern until you reach the mistake. Insert the right-hand needle from the reverse to the front of each stitch at the same time and allow the stitch above to unravel by dropping it from the left needle. Rework the stitch in the correct way using the unravelled yarn.
How do I get back into the garter stitch?
Drop the stitch from the non-working needle. If you turn your work around, you will see that it looks just a like a knit stitch from the other side. Repeat with each remaining stitch on your row. Now all the stitches should be back on your other needle, so you can knit the right side row as normal!
How do you take off a garter stitch?
- Sometimes there’s nothing else to do but unravel your knitting!
- Decide how many rows you need to undo, and mark this with a little snippet of yarn.
- Slide all your stitches off the needle.
- Gently pull the yarn so that each stitch comes undone.
