Review on ๐Ÿงค Dritz KT-2 Silver Norwegian Knitting Thimble - Optimal SEO-friendly Product Name by Heather Shaw

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is an essential two-tone knitting tool when knitting continental style!

This thimble has enabled me to knit in two colors! I was knitting Continental style and couldn't get the tension right when two threads of yarn went through the index finger of my left hand. The knitting thimble solves the tension problem and also keeps the threads perfectly separated. My floats on the back of work are now beautiful and even too much! Make sure you watch parts 01, 02 and 03 of the YouTube video Colorwork and Dankfiber's Norwegian Knit Thimble before you start practicing with it. The first video shows how to wear the ring and (very important) how to thread the wire loops. The second part of the video shows how to catch poses with a thimble. Part 3 gives more color tips, including an important tip on how to deal with twisted loops when bobber fishing. The knitting thimble takes some time to learn and practice, but it is an indispensable tool for European-style knitters. The size of the thimble fits perfectly on my left index finger. If I needed a smaller ring I would probably buy a ring adjuster or ring insert.

Pros
  • Super for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Helps hold my yarn, and keep an even tension. Now I'm able to avoid the dreaded yarn burn.
