Garter Stitch 8 Ways - Replay Live Archive
One of the first surprises for most new machine knitters is the fact that the humble garter stitch is problematic on the knitting machine.
Because our needles face in one direction and they form uniform stitches in one direction, we can easily produce stockinette stitch (translated knit 1 row, purl 1 row) but to knit every row?
Let's talk about the many ways that we can add garter stitch to our machine knits.

Sue Jalowiec Thanks everyone ... see you next week |
Carol D Thanks! |
Sue Jalowiec scroll down to see the whole list |

Mary Ann B Thank you so much for all your hard work to get this going. |
Emily S oh wow! subscriber only... i love knit it now. i am looking up videos all the time... recently buttonholes on replay while i picked the right one!! |
Matthew F Brand NEW!!! |
Matthew F check out the classroom on this |
Annie L Did Silver Reed ever get a G-carriage? |
Les B Finally got you. Sue on my kindle |
Emily S is that a magnetic tool holder behind you????!!! |
Mary K don't use garter bar if gauge is Tension 3 or less I have been taught. it will tear your yarn. |
Annie L Increases also. |
Garter bar is very important when knitting yokes on yoke sweaters. Works great! |
Mary Ann B Somewhere I have seen instructions for modifying a P carriage for a Brother. Unfortunately, I don't remember where. |
Mary K Decrease/increase with garter bar |
Jacqueline O Evenly distributed inc/dec |
Barbara W Ok! |
Jenny M B Use garter bar to take knitting off and replace on fewer needles. |
Jody A decreasing stitches |
Mary Ann B I generally use a small needle - just so the stitches fit without stretching. |
Barbara W What is a P carriage? |
Emily S when hand knitting the bands with garter... is there a good way to guess what size needle to use? |
Mary K finally on!! I restarted my computer, now I get you |
Betty E J how handy is a garter bar? |
Mary Ann B Mine's in the box. I've been scared off I think. Must try it. |
Joan W Silver Reed requires you go across with a P carriage before using transfer tool to extend the needles. Then works really well with any rib configuration. |
Jenny M B Wouldn't be without my Brother transfer carriage! |
Emily S does the device only work on standard gauge? |
