Knitting: Two-at-a-time sleeves on Two Circulars, Top Down Sweater

Dear Rebecca, thanks so much for this amazing lesson. I am past the 35th minute and you inspire me to reach for a WIP I actually abandoned long ago. You gave me hope to finish it off after roughly 8 years!!! THANK YOU!! 😘😘😘

Wow. Great tutorial. Thanks.

This is fantastic!! 🔥🔥🔥
When I was new to sweater knitting, I was told 2 at a time only works on bottom up sweaters. Poppycocks I declared! I figured it out but man, I wish someone had made a video like this a few years ago. Thank you for your time spent making this 💜💜

This is amazing!!! I have been trying to puzzle this out for so long! I love your tutorials. They are so thorough and clear. I used the brioche ones so many times doing my first few projects. You have a real gift for teaching. Thank you again for this!

If you tried kneeing two socks at once, you may easily understand this.

Great video, I learned so much and can't wait to put these instructions in action

You uploaded this vdo for me 😄😄
This is the very vdo I was looking for
Thank you thank you thank you....

This is awesome! I’ve been messing all morning trying to figure it out on my own! The big trick was working the back of the 2nd sleeve . Love your video! Your voice is great and your personality shines through😊❤️

I first found your channel this week for the ranúnculos and I absolutely love it and of course subscribed right away. So far have enjoyed every one of your tutorials, this one it is so clever and everyone of the podcast of yours so well explained I can’t wait to try.
Thank you so much for so well done tutorials.

OMG!!! LOL! In my mind's eye, using ONE long needle would be less confusing (A.D.D.)

Thank you so nuch! The best explanarion about 2 sleaves 2 at time on 2 circ.! I'm a brazilian kniter and my english is... so bad! But I could understand all steps with no doubt! You are amazing! 🙏🙏🙏😍😍❤️

Thanks for this. I am already a 2 circs fan, I am knitting my first sweater in the round and I am using 2 circs; and was wondering if I could do 2aat sleeves. (I don’t really like magic loop). I was lost with the drawings but once you showed it on your actual sweater I got it right away. ❤

I’m new to sweater knitting and wanted to knit both sleeves at the same time. I saw your video and thought I would give it a try. It works !
Loved the white board segment as it helped me to understand the process. All this to say you are an EXCELLENT teacher.
Next project will be the Papillon. Wrap and turns are not my favorite, but with your videos on this pattern, I know I can do it. 💃
Thank You.

YOU are an amazing instructor!!!!!!

Appreciate immensely your tutorial , thank you.

Omg wow

Where did you get your barber cords? or Do we can DIY them? they look like those cords to make bracelets

Wow....Thanking you so much ! I was wondering how to knit both sleeves at the same time and I found your video! Amazing, I Will try with the ranunculus sweater that I an knitting ! 🧶🧶

I definitely love the idea of doing both sleeve together. Just like two socks at once; the first time I knit one at a time, never again. Lol
Would knitting two at a time be easier to knit the sleeves before the body?

You Are fantastic ….. thank you very much….❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Thanks, easy and detailed explained ❣️ I knit with 2 circular needles in rounds instead of the macig loop method. Less chuffling around the stitches and faster to knit. Socks 2 at 1 time is awesome. I planning to knit my first cardigan in oversized fitting. Can not find a good pattern, will make up my own. Your videos help tremendously for that, thank you.

Some suggestions next time draw 2 both armholes with stitches over each other and not just 1. That way it is easier to learn to comprehend this method. This method is genius. I do it with socks, never did think of armholes. Thank you a lot❣️

Really enjoyed this video. I've done this on one long circular, but appreciated the explanation

I'm about to try this...what are the odds I'm either going to knit those sleeves together or knit them with the wrong yarn or all of the above, lol. Wish me luck! Nice video and great instructions!

Wow, I found this video and was just happened to be working on my two at a time sleeves. I use one circular needle using magic loop because I was so used to doing socks two at a time on magic loop. So two needles really is new to me and makes me have to think it through. I think the picking up underarm stitches looks easier on two needles. You are a very thorough teacher!

Such a great tutorial! I didn’t know I could knit 2 sleeves at a time when they were attached. Thanks so much for this video.

Maybe dumb a question, but why not do one sleeve on one circular needle and one sleeve on the other circular?

Dear Rebecca thank you so much, you are a great teacher, very supportive and much caring. I am knitting a jacket and I was struggling with the sleeves. Now I understand very well how to do it thanks to you. Please keep doing what you do !

can you teach the armpit math to add stitches on the armpit

WoW i understand

This is the third time I’ve used this video to do my sleeves. Thank you so much! Makes it so easy!

OMG, this is a life changer. Thank you so much. I am knitting Isabell Kraemer's Mariechen sweater and really wanted to knit the sleeves TAAT (like I do with my socks!) I just couldn't figure out how to place the stitches on the needles. Thank God for YOUR VIDEO and your patience. Amazing!!! Many thanks!!!

Thanks so much for this. I tried to figure it out myself and found myself in an awful muddle. Do you have a tutorial for knitting in the presence of cats? Back when I had cats I always found that very difficult.

I can't thank you enough!!! Though I'd knit both socks and mittens two at a time on two needles, picking up sleeves really had me stumped!! You went above and beyond with great graphics and clear explanations insuring I'd get my current project done with time to spare AND maintain my sanity!!! THANKS SOOOOO MUCH.

Love all the visual explanations with drawings! Thank you!

So. Very. Helpful. 🎉🎉🎉 Thanks for taking the time to explain so thoroughly and clearly. I finally BELIEVE that I can do the two sleeves at once game, thanks to your clear explanation. AND I learned better picking up stitches techniques, as a bonus!!

This is the best sleeve video ever!

Thee thing I would add (I haven’t read the other comments so perhaps others have added this already) is that once you have a solid round behind you, you can’t screw it up by starting in the wrong place. I am working on my first sweater ever and was so confused until I realized you have to start in the right place because there is only one spot you can start where you have both a needle and yarn on the same gap between needles. As long as you always start with the supply yarn coming from the same side you can’t do anything but go in the correct direction. Brilliant.

I'm finding this confusing. Why can't I have one needle holding the front of both sleeves and the other holding the backs so the sleeves don't have to be twisted??

I have done sleeves cuff up TAAT before but never knew you can do top down as well! The drawings really helped! Thanks!!
