Yarnover Make 1 Increases // Technique Tuesday

This video demonstrates how to create mirrored make 1 increases, using yarnovers and reverse yarnovers. This method of creating make 1 increases can replace the version where a twisted loop is created on the needle, as well as the version where the running thread is lifted and then knit immediately so that it twists. You will learn how to immediately tell if the YO you are creating will result in an increase that leans the correct way, as well as how to work the YO correctly on the next round or row so that it will twist.
