Sorry for such a stupid question, but I actually need it – a verb to name the operation
Well, when (if :)) you ‘undo’ knitting (i.e., change knitted fragment or even a whole knitted thing, entirely, to skein again) – what verb do you use to name for the operation?
Amy, you’re so kind with your look
I can bravely say that for the vast majority of those ‘knitting terms’ I don’t have any clear idea/concept even in my native language :lol:
I like unravel the most (just by how it sounds).
And I still hate phrasal verbs
(even ravel out :))
I’ve done my share of knitting. Especially when I have to undo a lot of rows, I usually use the phrasal verb rip out. This has a more “aggressive” feel to it whereas unravel has a more passive and relaxed feel to it. And, if I have to undo 50 rows, I don’t usually feel passive or relaxed. :lol:
