Are you wondering how to fix knitting mistakes the right way? Then this video was made for you. Because in this very detailed tutorial I will show you every technique I know you can use to fix or cover up mistakes. No matter if they happen in this row or several rows below, or if you already bound off all stitches. You can use these techniques to fix wrong mistakes, close gaps, ladders, and loose stitches. But there are also methods available to re-do whole sections of your knitting. I'll also talk about how to unravel knitting the right way, how to tink (reverse knit) and there's even a short section on blocking.

Errata: For tip 2, I accidentally refer to tinking as reverse knitting. It's backward knitting or unknitting. reverse knitting refers to a special knitting technique where you knit the wrong side from the right side going into the opposite direction.
