Best Method to Measure A Gauge Swatch Andrea Wong Knits 2022-02-18 | Here we came to the subject knitters tend to avoid :(Well, do we need to work a gauge swatch if you are using Portuguese Style? Answer: only if you want your project to fit the person who is going to wear it when you are finished knitting it. Maybe that’s why shawls and scarves are so popular, as pretty much you don’t need to follow gauge. For all garments though, you are going to work at least 80,000 stitches, send hours working, spend money on yarn, needles, buttons, gadgets, etc to just put the project away when it is complete (if you complete it) because it does not fit right. Guess how do I know that? So a couple of years ago, I bought a membership for Amy Herzog Designs and start following her method. THat’s where I learned to measure a gauge swatch and I believe it is the best method. Since then, it is the only way I do it and I want to share it with you.amyherzogdesigns.comDo you have a question or topic you'd like me to cover? Leave a suggestion in the comments and it might become my next video! --------------Portuguese Knitting Pins, Needles, and Patterns:etsy.com/shop/AndreaWongKnitsStranded Knitting Portuguese Style Class:andreawongknits.com/product/stranded-knitting-portuguese-styleMy Portuguese Knitting Basics Class:andreawongknits.com/product/portuguese-knitting-basicsDouble Knitting Portuguese Style Class:andreawongknits.com/product/double-knitting-portuguese-styleFollow me on instagram:instagram.com/andreawongknits
How I do stranded knitting flat Andrea Wong Knits 2025-05-29 | Even though it is much easier to work stranded knitting in the round, sometimes you might need to work it flat. One example would be the top part of a Norwegian sweater. The knitter will work the body of the sweater in the round until she reaches the armhole, then work flat for front and back, avoiding the steel. Or so I have heard.Chart Link:andreawongknits.com/color-knitting-flat-chart-stranded-knitting—————————Learn the Portuguese Knitting Basics with me:andreawongknits.com/product/portuguese-knitting-basicsMusic in this video:"Leopard Print Elevator" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0Portuguese Knitting Pins, Needles, and Patterns:etsy.com/shop/AndreaWongKnitsDouble Knitting Portuguese Style Class:andreawongknits.com/product/double-knitting-portuguese-styleFollow me on instagram:instagram.com/andreawongknits

Knitting a sock- how to pick up and purl on heel flap Andrea Wong Knits 2024-09-13 | If you have my sock pattern "Favorite Baby Sock" you are going to learn to work an entire sock on the purl side. The baby sock is just an exercise in a small scale to work any simple pattern sock inside out. Notice that I said simple pattern or reversible pattern for sock. If the cuff of the sock has a very elaborate cable or lace pattern, I would work with the Knit side facing. However, for the everyday sock or stranded motifs socks, this works beautifully using the PortugueseMethod of Knitting.In this video I will demonstrate how to pick up and purl the stitches for the heel flap.etsy.com/listing/1238656848/pattern-favorite-baby-socks-to-knit?click_key=031e991e92f7bee3663b9a820fd3e06272a7623b%3A1238656848&click_sum=6ddad6f8&ref=shop_home_active_23&sts=1--------------Learn the Portuguese Knitting Basics with me:andreawongknits.com/product/portuguese-knitting-basicsMusic in this video:"Leopard Print Elevator" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0Portuguese Knitting Pins, Needles, and Patterns:etsy.com/shop/AndreaWongKnitsStranded Knitting Portuguese Style Class:andreawongknits.com/product/stranded-knitting-portuguese-styleDouble Knitting Portuguese Style Class:andreawongknits.com/product/double-knitting-portuguese-styleFollow me on instagram:instagram.com/andreawongknits

Jacks Sweater - How to Knit a Sweater Inside Out - Introduction Andrea Wong Knits 2024-08-09 | Introduction to my new masterclass. Full class available on andreawongknits.comFor a long time I have received requests for this class: work an entire sweater from the non-public side out (“wrong side out” or inside out). Of course that the public side is subjective and totally up to you, but here we are talking about the conventional Stocking Stitch sweater. What could be the advantage? you may ask. Well, for Portuguese Knitters the purl stitch is easier. I teach that in all my classes and you heard me say this a million times. That will be always a small percentage of Portuguese Knitters that will disagree or feel indifferent to it. Let’s apply to the majority.In this class you are going to work this baby sweater from the neck down, starting with the Portuguese Cast on at the neck, work four lines of increases on the yoke, work stranded knitting patterns on the yoke, separate the body and sleeve stitches and work to the cuffs and edge of the sweater (which includes decreases on the purl side).Learn more about the class:andreawongknits.com/product/jacks-sweater-how-to-knit-a-sweater-inside-out

Latvian Braids Andrea Wong Knits 2024-06-18 | These braids are a wonderful way to decorate a hat, a cuff of a mitten or a cuff of a sweater. I have seen also on the yoke sweaters. All are performed by purling with the yarn in front of the work, which sound perfect for the Portuguese Style of knitting! However, because we bring the yarn over or under each other according to the direction of the twist, they are not possible to be knit using thePortuguese Method. Here you are going to see how to make these brades and why.Pattern Knit one round alternating color A and color B. For a braid with a slant to theRIGHT, bring color A UNDER color B every time you purl a stitch. If you want the braid to slant to the LEFT, you are going to alternate the colors OVER each other. Note: both colors are going to twist around each other. To manage this twist, I pull a long amount of yarn from the skeins. On the next round, they will untwist.
Lace Edge for Shawls and Scarves Andrea Wong Knits 2024-05-31 | I take advantage of the purl Stitch to show you an easy to memorize and quick embellishment for shawls, scarves, baby sweaters or whatever your imagination desires.

You can choose any number higher than 5.

Jogless Jog on Purl Side Andrea Wong Knits 2024-05-10 | When you work a circular project with the purl side facing (or knit for that matter), you are actually working a spiral, where the last stitch of the round is never side by side with the first stitch you had at the beginning to the round. That appears as what we call a JOG, very evident when you change colors, like on a striped hat or sock for example. To avoid the Jog, knitters came up with several ways to disguise it, mostly on the knit side of the fabric. But we, Portuguese Knitters, like to work inside out, or, with the PURL side facing us. So, in this video, lets learnhow to avoid the jog on the purl side!Learn the Portuguese Knitting Basics with me:andreawongknits.com/product/portuguese-knitting-basicsMusic in this video:"Leopard Print Elevator" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0--------------Portuguese Knitting Pins, Needles, and Patterns:etsy.com/shop/AndreaWongKnitsStranded Knitting Portuguese Style Class:andreawongknits.com/product/stranded-knitting-portuguese-styleDouble Knitting Portuguese Style Class:andreawongknits.com/product/double-knitting-portuguese-styleFollow me on instagram:instagram.com/andreawongknits

I was born in Brazil and several years after marrying my husband, we moved to New York in 1991. When I came to the U.S., several people asked me to teach them how to knit the way I do, which is the Portuguese Style of knitting. Through popular demand, I was able to turn what I love to do into my business today.---------------Music Credits:––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––Ohayo by Smith The Mister smiththemister.bandcamp.comSmith The Mister bit.ly/Smith-The-Mister-YTFree Download / Stream: bit.ly/_ohayoMusic promoted by Audio Library youtu.be/bzCw4RyFqHo––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––Autumn 2011 by Loxbeats https://spoti.fi/34tPBBOCreative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0Free Download / Stream: bit.ly/autumn-2011Music promoted by Audio Library youtu.be/r4twe3BxxX8––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––--------------------------------------------------------------♪ Biscuit (Prod. by Lukrembo)Link : youtu.be/EtZ2m2Zm3vY--------------------------------------------------------------
Knitting Magic Loop with Portuguese Style of Knitting Andrea Wong Knits 2022-03-04 | There are may ways to work circularly when knitting: use double pointed needles, circular needles, knitting needles with hooks (just like double pointed needles), Flexi points and Magic Loop. They all have the same goal, produce a circular piece of knitting with seams. When you want to produce small circumferences, it becomes hard to manipulate your tools. So knitters came up with ingenious ways to do that, and Magic Loop is one of these. Note that the fabric you produce does not change, just how you are making it. Also, it does not matter if you are using Portuguese, English or German Styles, the technique using the long loop is the same. With that being said, I have numerous requests in how to work with Magic Loop using Portuguese Style, so here is a video for you.Do you have a question or topic you'd like me to cover?
