There are three basic methods for correcting your knitting mistakes: You can unravel, sometimes called frogging, you can ladder down, or you can undo stitches, one at a time. The latter is usually called to tink because you are knitting backwards, and tink is knit spelled backwards. In this guide, I will take you through basic tinking, relevant for the brand new knitter AND advanced tinking of lacework and cables.

For tinking a purl stitch, you bring the working yarn to the front, and you still insert the left needle from front to back. By keeping the working yarn taut, you are opening up the loop the left needle needs to go through, making it easy to spot. Knit Purl Hunter has made a really nice video demonstrating how to tink both knit stitches and purl stitches. She emphasizes how you can look where the working yarn is coming from to make sure you insert the needle in the correct place.

Ideally, you should know how to undo every stitch in your knitting repertoire. Whenever you are teaching yourself a new stitch, take the time to knit a swatch for practice. Get used to the new stitch, learn to recognize it. Understand the anatomy of the stitch, and learn how to tink it. You will be so glad you did this when you later start making mistakes in the project that involves the new stitch. I hope the videos I have collected, will help you out.

Hi Bitsy, when you have that many rows to undo, usually you will want to unravel rather than tink. Try googling afterthought lifeline and you will find help to do it safely. Very Pink Knits has an excellent video about lifelines. Good luck
