Weave in Loose Ends on Flat Knits

Learn how to tie up loose ends on flat knitting projects in this lesson from Liz @ PurlsAndPixels.

After you bind off a piece of knitting, you will almost always have one or more yarn tails to weave into your piece. There are two schools of thought on how to get rid of those loose yarn ends on knitting. Knitting purists say you should weave in your ends so there are no knots in your knitting. I say, go ahead and knot if that will anchor your yarn better. Here, I will show you a standard way to weave in your loose ends using a “duplicate stitch” pattern. Then, you can learn how to make a tiny knot, which will tie your loose end into the fabric.

Below are both video and written tutorials to help you learn how to weave in your ends.

Written Guide: How to Weave in Loose Ends on Flat Knitting

To be rid of your loose ends without ruining your work, you cannot just cut them off with scissors. Before snipping your ends off, you will need to sew or “weave” them into your project.  Anchoring your tails to the knitting by weaving them into the fabric in prevents your stitches from coming unraveled.

How to weave in loose ends a knitting lesson from Liz @PurlsAndPixels

You will thread the loose end through a darning needle, which you can weave through your work to duplicate the pattern you have knit. This generally is referred to as “duplicate stitch” in knitting. The curving purple lines below represent possible routes you might follow when trying to replicate the snake-like weave of a knitting project.

Those who weave in their tails without tying a knot must sew the tail into the work for several rows before trimming it off; this ensures that if the tail comes loose, you will have enough yarn to weave it back in again.

If you choose to tie in your loose end with a knot, you will only need to duplicate a few stitches when you weave in. Then, you can tie a tiny knot to hold your tail in place before trimming away the extra yarn.

I have divided this lesson into three more parts, to make it easier for you to read (and for your computer to load). Choose the lesson you’d like to learn below, to be directed to more specific written instructions for each part.

How to Weave in the Tail on the Cast On Edge

Weave in the Cast-on Tail:

A long-tail cast on, like most other cast ons, will always leave a tail. Learn how I weave in then tie off this loose end on flat knitting projects.

How to Weave in the Tail on the Bind Off Edge

Weave in the Bind-off Tail:

The standard bind off will also leave a tail. This tail can be used to fix odd edges at the same time they are being woven in. Find out how to finish off your bind off edge with the loose end.

How to Tie In a Loose End with a Knot

Knot in Yarn Tails:

I always tie my yarn tail onto one of my knit stitches with a tiny, strong, and almost invisible knot. Learn how to knot in your yarn ends before you trim them away.

How to Hold Yarn When Knitting

How to hold yarn knitting tutorial from Liz @PurlsAndPixels

Before you start learning the knit stitch, you’ll need to know how to hold your yarn. Getting a good grip on the working yarn creates tension in the string that will allow you to knit more evenly.

There are a number of ways to hold your yarn when you knit. In this post, I’ll shown you my favorite yarn hold, plus two alternate ways to hold your yarn when knitting. These are three ways you can work with the yarn held in your left hand (this is known as “Continental Style Knitting“).

Video Guide: How to Hold Yarn When Knitting

Written Guide: How to Hold Yarn When Knitting

Option 1:

Wrap a loop around your pointer finger using the working yarn that is coming from the needles.

Option 2:

Wrap the yarn coming from the needles around your last three fingers and then up and over your pointer finger.

Option 3:

Wrap the yarn coming from the needles around your last three fingers and then up and over your pointer finger.

Turn Your Work When Knitting

How to turn your work, a knitting lesson from Liz @PurlsAndPixels.
How to turn your work, a knitting lesson from Liz @PurlsAndPixels.

After you have cast on all your stitches (or finished a row) in a flat knitting project, your pattern will ask you to “turn your work.” This instruction is asking you to flip your needle over so that you can prepare to work the next row.

Whether you are working on circular needles or straight needles, turning your work is the same; the tip of the needle that is full of stitches will need to be turned 180 degrees and moved from your right hand into your left hand.

Below are both video and written tutorials to help you learn how turn your knitting and prepare to start the next row.

Video Guide: How to Turn Your Work When Knitting

Written Guide: How to Turn Your Work When Knitting

Turn Your Work, Step 1:

After you have cast on (or finished working a row), your stitches will be on the needle held in your right hand. The tip of the needle will be pointing toward the left.

Turn Your Work, Step 2:

To turn your work, flip your knitting needle over, so the tip points  toward the right, then place it in your left hand.

Beginner Face Scrubby Free Knitting Pattern

Free Beginner Face Scrubby knitting pattern by Liz @PurlsAndPixels.

by Liz Chandler @PurlsandPixels

To learn the knit stitch, start with this simple Beginner Face Scrubby pattern. Practice your long-tail cast on, then use just knit stitches to make the entire scrubby. Take your work off your needles with a standard bind off, and you have made a practical and useful item. Because these 3-inch squares are small, they are a satisfying way to learn to knit; you will get a finished object much more quickly than larger projects.

Aside from being a wonderful way to practice the knit stitch, these scrubbies are especially functional. Face scrubbies are perfect for use as reusable makeup removing pads.

How to Make a Slipknot

Learn to make a slipknot for knitting with Liz @PurlsAndPixels.

The slipknot is frequently used in many types of fiber art, including knitting, crochet, and weaving. This knot loosens or tightens based on which side of the string you pull. Slipknots are useful because you can adjust the size of the knot to fit around the tool you are working with.

In knitting, a slipknot is used as the first step of a long tail cast on; it will create the first loop on your knitting needles. You will be able to adjust the size of your first loop by pulling on either tail of the slipknot. This helps your yarn loop fit onto your knitting needle with the correct “tension” or tightness. Your slipknot will always count as the first stitch in your knitting cast on.

Below are both video and written tutorials to help you learn how to make a slipknot and place it onto your knitting needles.

Heart Face Scrubby Free Knitting Pattern

A Free Knitting Pattern from Liz Chandler @PurlsandPixels

Heart face scrubby free knitting pattern from Liz @PurlsAndPixels

I’d like to give you all a little gift this Valentines day, so I have written up a quick heart face scrubby free knitting pattern. Enjoy! (P.S. I’m supposed to tell you that the links to Amazon on this site are affiliate links; if you use them to make a purchase, Amazon sends me a commission, at no cost to you.)

I love to use little handmade cotton squares to use with makeup remover and micellar water. Rather repeatedly throwing away disposable cotton pads, I make my own little face scrubbies with cotton yarn. After I use one, I put it in a Mason Jar, then when my collection is dirty I wash them up. A little OxyClean in the wash really helps to get them clean of makeup residue and then they’re ready to use again.

Prefer to knit offline?

This pattern is free to read below, but if you’d rather print it or save it for later, I’ve created a clean, ad-free PDF version for you.

These little heart scrubbies are super quick to make. The simple pattern also makes them easy to knit. They don’t use much yarn either, so they’re great for using up leftover scrap yarn.

Make a bunch for your own facial care routine. Or create a little gift basket for Valentines Day or other holidays. Add several scrubbies, a wide-mouth mason jar (for storing used scrubbies that need to be washed), and makeup remover or micellar water to a cute basket and you’ve got a beautiful handmade spa basket. You could even throw in some nice soap and a few full-sized washcloths to make it extra-special (find my seed stitch washcloth pattern here).

Darn Cute Ear Warmer headband/messy bun hat knitting pattern

I am so excited to announce that my Darn Cute Ear Warmer headband knitting pattern has been published by Darn Good Yarn! Find it here.

About the Yarn

What to make with Darn Good Yarn Punky Chunky super bulky yarn

I used Darn Good Yarn’s chunky up-cycled yarn to knit this quick and easy headband. The yarn is called “Punky Chunky” and is made with hand-spun recycled silk. As soon as I saw it, I knew this happy, sparkly rainbow yarn would make a perfect messy bun hat. It is warm, cozy, and colorful: the perfect combination to keep the winter blues at bay. I knit one in white, purple, and turquoise; all three colors are bright, cheerful, and vibrant. The super-bulky weight yarn lets you create a finished project really quickly. Check out all the available colors of Darn Good Yarn’s Punky Chunky here at my affiliate link and enter “Punky Chunky” in the Darn Good Yarn search bar.

About the Pattern

Darn Cute Ear Warmer headband/messy bun hat knitting pattern

Because Punky Chunky is super-bulky, it makes this Darn Cute Ear Warmer knitting pattern work up in a flash. If you’re an experienced knitter, it can be crafted in just a few hours. And if you are new to knitting, you can make this Darn Cute Ear Warmer too; you’ll only need to know the basic knit and purl stitches to create this headband. This pattern is knit seamlessly in the round. Need help? Learn all the techniques necessary for this pattern here on PurlsAndPixels.com:

Darn Good Yarn has published the pattern here, where you can download and print it for your collection. You can also order the kit, which comes with the pattern and one ball of yarn. You can make this headband with just one full ball of yarn, but do keep in mind the headband uses the entire ball of yarn. Depending on your preferences, you might want to order an extra ball of yarn; if you don’t like to unravel and reuse your gauge swatches, you’ll need the extra ball of yarn to make up the difference.

I had a lot of fun crafting this hat and pattern, and I hope you love it, too. Don’t forget share pics of your finished work. Make sure to tag @darngoodyarn and @purlsandpixels in your Instagram photos so we can see how it comes out!
