Why do I always get a hole when I pick up wrap and turn stitches on the short rows in the round? I have tried and tried to solve this problem but cannot seem to get it right!

I always love your videos and I especially find all of your tutorials really helpful, and I find myself referring to them on a regular basis. That being said, I was looking at knitting your Winter Honey shawl and was wondering if you were going to put out a tutorial for the cabling in that pattern? I absolutely love it, but dont have much experience with cabling, and dont feel like there are many videos out there for the type of cable youve chosen for that shawl. As always, thank you so much for your videos and gorgeous knits! Cabling tutorial: https://youtu.be/uA_YoPOk6fE?si=RBTeyP0A9_X_PlY9 3. hi andrea! my question is about the tubular bind off. i love the look of it, but i always struggle with how tight it is, which confuses me because the internet tells me its a fairly stretchy bind off. i am swatching for my (second!) traveler crew. i love my first, but its a squeeze to get the bound-off edge of the neck over my head every time i wear it, and i would LOVE to avoid this for my second. i already am super cautious to bind off as loosely as i can while still keeping the bind off edge neat, and i go up 1-2 needle sizes as well. im wondering if you have any other tips to try to get a more stretchy bind off edge? or, do you know of a more stretchy bind off that is equally invisible? do i just have a giant head and this is a me problem without a solution? please help! 4. Hey Andrea! I started spinning in March and I love it! You talk about loving a good 3 ply in episode 174, and I was wondering do you do a 3 ply with fractal spinning? How do you separate your braid for that? I want to try fractal spinning, but I also love a 3 ply to hide my inconsistencies, hope you have some advice. Love from Norway 5. Have knitted your Douglas Cardi and absolutely love ii and wear it almost 16 hours a day in the winter time. Am wanting to make another but would like make it in the round and steek it. Would this be possible? Any hiccups Id need to be aware of? I absolutely need another Douglas Cardi in my life as this one will be thread bare in a year or two.
