Manual Wrap

When partial knitting (short rows) wrap an adjacent needle to prevent holes


When working short rows or partial knitting (manual wrap method). The knitting sequence to prevent holes:
  • Opposite the carriage place needles in hold (carriage set to hold)
  • Knit across the row
  • Wrap the first needle in hold to prevent a hole
  • Knit back to complete the short row shaping (2 rows knit)
