Have you ever made a mistake and decided that you should rip back all the way to the beginning? Or tried to pull back several rows only to find it difficult to get the stitches back on the needle? (Especially if there are yarnovers or increases or decreases!) A safety line inserted into a "good" row/round can be a lifesaver. If you do have to pull back, your safety line holds the stitches for you, making it easier to put them back on the knitting needle and ensuring you don't miss anything.
In this video, we share some of our tips for inserting a safety line, including what kind of yarn works well for this purpose.
