In the meantime, I refer to this article on Knitty when I need to pick up stitches. http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEwinter04/FEATwin04TT.html; ▶ Reply to This

Also I would like to see 1. how to join bound off shoulder stitches 2. detailed video illustrating instead of binding off shoulder stitches that are staggered how to do a 3 needle bindoff without holes where they are staggered. Hope you can make sense out of No. 2!; ▶ Reply to This

I use the book The Knitter's Book of Finishing Techniches by Nancy M. Wiseman. It is a book that I go back to time and time again because it has everything from cast-ons, increases, decreases, bind-offs, edgings, button holes, picking up stitches, Kitchener stitch, etc. You might be able to check it out of your local library to see if you want to purchase it. Also knittinghelp.com has a short video showing short-rows here: http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/advanced-techniques and sloped and 3-needle bind-off here: http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/casting-off. Hope this helps, but these would be great videos to add to the Knitpicks collection!; ▶ Reply to This

It's one of the skills in knitting that is just lost in a narrative ... you need pictures to do it justice. Luckily, I'd knit a few pair of socks before I tried entrelac, so it wasn't too difficult. Good luck with entrelac. It is fairly fast and very distinctive.; ▶ Reply to This
