Thank you very much for clear concise instructions. I increased too many times and needed to frog. This worked on first try.

Thank you so much. This video was a huge help. I agree with other comments, you clearly showed how to pick up the stitches and get them back on the needle correctly.

Thanks so much for this video! I messed up on a briochevron cowl and tried to fix it! I got most of the stitches picked up, but it happened in the decrease area, and I couldn't figure out how to fix it all the way. I was able to frog back and get all my stitches back on. Thank you!!!
