How I Knit English Style (P2) - My Personal Tips

Moc An Knits

In the previous blog, I showed you how I hold my yarn when knitting English style. Now let’s put it all together and look at how I actually knit!

A few things that help this feel smoother:

1️⃣ Try to keep your movements small. A lot of beginners move the whole hand or wrist more than they need to - but the more you can isolate the movement to just your fingers, the faster and less tiring your knitting becomes.

2️⃣ Don't rush the coordination between your two hands. It's really a rhythm - left hand feeds, right hand wraps and pulls - and rhythm only comes with repetition.

If you want to try this method yourself, start slow. Let your hands learn the sequence first, without worrying about speed at all. Once the movement feels automatic, speed will come naturally on its own - you really don't have to force it.

I hope it’s helpful!

Happy Knitting :)
