  7. I love the ballet booties and I would love to make them. However I am finding it difficult to do the technique tightening the loose cast on loops. I left a comment on this video on YouTube and you said you would do another video but not until the summer. Please would you do a short video showing how to do

  8. I made a pair od the ballet booties last week following you video and decided to make another pair today. I am struggling to follow your instructions for row 10 without having the video to refer to . Can you pls explain this step to me. Also, will you be putting your video back up as I found it extremely helpful. Thank you so much

    1. I am sorry about the struggle with row 10. I removed the video in an angry mood sick of seeing just complaint after complaint. I intend on redoing it in my newer camera to remove the "it is too dark to see" complaint. I might just load the video for my blog only with the poor quality video until I get the newer done.
      As for row ten, knit 8 pegs, then move loop 9 to peg 10 toss bottom loop over, then move loop 11 to peg 12 and toss bottom loop over top, then move loop 13 to peg 14 toss bottom loop over, then move loop 15 to peg 16 toss bottom loop over top. Then knit back to the starting point. Let me know if you have any other questions. Hope this helps.

    2. Once you have moved all the loops and knitted them off do you only knit the pegs that have a loop on them? Going to be attempting this later and want to make sure I understand this step.

  9. Is the pattern and the video the same and are they up to date. I have started making it and noticed that there were some discrepancies that people have pointed out. I am liking what I see so far and would like to make sure I am going to be able to finish it with the instructions on the blog now. Thank you for any help you may be able to pass along
