Description Faster, more comfortable knitting doesn’t mean sacrificing quality! Join Portuguese-knitting guru Andrea Wong and conquer an exciting style that leaves both of your hands free for your needles. It’s perfect for both righties and lefties! First, you’ll learn how to wrap your yarn around your neck or run it through a special knitting pin attached near your collar. Then, Andrea will teach you to maintain even tension as you knit; it’s the key to comfortable knitting. When you move on, you’ll see how to use this style for fast, clean purling, ribbing, cast-ons and bind-offs. Plus, you’ll even discover how Portuguese knitting can help you work more efficient increases, decreases, lace, colorwork, cables and more!
