Short Rows Back

The Goal of this Challenge

Knit more than flat squares and rectangles

Hi ,

Short Row Shaping (aka Partial knitting) is an essential skill for all machine knitters. Partial knitting is just as it sounds ...you knit part of a row of knitting instead of the entire row. Instead of knitting just squares and rectangles, short row shaping is used to shape your knitting
Here are a few uses
  • Shoulder Slopes
  • Bust Darts
  • Neckline shaping
  • Curved hems
  • Shaping heels and toes of socks
  • Mitered corners
  • Knitting Circles
In this challenge you will knit at 3 swatches. Each exercise will use different skills that may be new to you.

  • Manual Wrap Short Rows

  • Automatic Wrap Short Rows

  • Add Eyelets

I HIGHLY encourage you to learn AND PRACTICE Short rows.
