I practiced last night and this is so much easier than I’ve been doing for 50 years.  What a service you are doing for the knitting community!  I was so excited I purchased a set of the Prym needles as well.  Thank you!

"...point at people! that's not nice..." Arne, I love your sense of humour!

I adopted the "Norwegian Knit" and the "Norwegian Purl" by watching Arne. I am not a knitting wizard, I'm just a woman with some years of knitting "English" under her belt. I am self-taught by buying How-to books and patterns back in the '70s.  You just have different ways of verbalizing what you are doing. All people really have to do is use the "pause" key liberally.  You make a great tag-team on teaching. Thank you!

I was taught how to knit when I was 10 and did not knit again until I was 62. She passed shortly after teaching me so I needed a refresher. I found the continental way but tensioning was awkward. I assumed my mom from Sweden, taught me continental. I don’t think so! I think she taught me your way. Light bulb. I will try it and pull the cord in case of emergency! I came for the Norwegian cast to use on the Ranunculus sweater. Who knew I would be reunited with my mother’s way. It is a thread of memory back to her. Thank you so much. Tears of joy…

Learned to knit entirely from Arne’s video. It worked for me. Best line: “dis is da dancing”. :)

Carlos I don’t know why you were so worried about this video, it was brill. So informative and helpful. Thank you to you both. What a great team you both are xxxxx

Never knew I was Norwegian. That's the way I've always knit since I learned continental.

Oh my goodness, light bulb moment! Thank you both so much. I’ve been trying to learn continental knitting for a while, I could never ‘tension’ the yarn over my finger comfortably without having to re-tension constantly. Your way is perfect, absolutely fantastic tutorial. ‘Change your tools, not you!’ Thanks so much to both of you xx

Im a self taught knitter and this is how I have always held my yarn, I even hold it this way when crocheting.

We all learn differently so that is a good reason to have different teachers to teach us. Not one is better, just different so mahalo (thank you in Hawaiian)!

I am watching Arne knit along, listening to Carlos and it is a fascinating thing to watch.

I finally got it! The left hand simply holds the yarn but it’s the right needle that does all the work. Thanks for a brilliant explanation.

Oh my gosh- don’t judge you too harshly?! Are you kidding me? Carlos, we already love you! You and Arne are deeply beloved around the world. You are such a brilliant and masterful team and I admire the way you work together, both personally and professionally. You each have so much to offer and contribute and we all look forward to your episodes each week! My gosh, we plan our days, our lives, around it, LOL! Personally speaking, I have learned so much from each of you; things that far transcend the knitting world. I admire your kind and loving ways, how you treat each other with dignity and respect, you care about our planet and value even the smallest things, but things that matter. I just love and appreciate your ways of ‘being’ in the world, your skills and your breadth of knowledge, your generosity, warmth and hospitality, your values and ethics and well-roundedness...honestly, I could go on. I have been your fan for many years when I stumbled on you quite accidentally on YouTube one day and I have remained drawn in ever since. It was one of life‘s greatest highlights to meet you both in Ashcroft, British Columbia 🇨🇦 last fall. Now, I’m so excited to re-watch your video and practice this new way of knitting! Many, many thanks and much love! 🇨🇦 ♥️🇳🇴 🧶

This was the best - and cutest/funniest tutorial.  Gotta try this method.

Arne u were an excellent interviewer - and thank you Carlos for being a great teacher

What I enjoyed about learning from you when you visited St. Thomas, Ontario was that you both taught in your own way and offered tips - which means we benefited from both of your teaching styles. thanks so much for posting this video as a great review of what we learned in your class! <3

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!  I am 70 years old and taught myself how to knit in my early twenties.  I struggled for years (in my teens) to learn how to knit the way it was taught in the books in the US where I live, and the way my grandmother showed me, but I just couldn't get it.  Finally I decided just do it my own way.  After watching your videos I realized I wasn't doing it the "wrong" way, I was doing it the "Old Norwegian Farmers" way.   My projects always come out nice, but I am slow!  I wanted to learn your Norwegian way so I could knit faster and be more comfortable with color work.  I watched both Arne's and Carlos' tutorials and picked it up in no time!  Love it.  (My great grandfather was from Norway, maybe it's in the genes.LOL).  I just started watching you last fall and am still catching up.  You guys are awesome.  Thank you

I am so relieved that I am not the only one that knits this way. I am not Norwegian, I was born in Caracas, Venezuela and this is the way I’ve been knitting since my mother taught me at age 15. I’ve been living in Canada for many years now and I always felt a little bit weird because people here knit the English way (I think that’s how it’s called). I could never explain why my way of knitting was different than everyone else, and also I don’t really know the history of how it came to be that this is the way my mother used to knit. I now have learned that the way I knit it’s called “Combination Continental”. I do the purl stitch different than the Norwegian way, but still hold the yarn the same way. Very interesting! Thank you Arne and Carlos.

I hope Carlos shows his purl.  I need to see that over and over.  Can’t wait til I can do that.

Wow I have been doing this all along!!! I am self taught from books in the time before YouTube. My Nordic ancestry must have snuck out. Thank you for your videos
