How do I create an invisible join between two balls of yarn in the middle of a row?

Try the Russian Join technique


How do I fix mistakes in colourwork?

Duplicate stitch to the rescue! This technique lets you re-colour one stitch at a time, after you've finished knitting a piece.


My cast-off is too tight!

Try Jeny's Super-Stretchy Bind Off - it's particularly great for toe-up sock knitting.


I don't have a circular needle short enough for this piece of knitting!

That's what Magic Loop is for - you can use it to knit as few as 4 stitches in the round.


My ssk or skpo stitches (right-leaning decreases) look wonky and don't line up neatly. What am I doing wrong?

Let me introduce you to your new best friend - the Improved SSK!
