Learn how to knit using the YARN OVER TECHNIQUE! This technique allows you to create beautiful patterns without having to count stitches.A yarn over (abbreviated yo) creates an intentional tiny hole in your fabric by adding an extra stitch to your needle. Lace knitting isn’t complete without yarn overs. Decorative increases, buttonholes, and novelty stitch patterns are just a few of the various uses for them.
To make a yarn over, just bring the knitting yarn (the “over” strand) over the needle between two existing stitches on one row, then work that strand as a stitch on the next row.
