Short Rows Wrap + Turn Tutorial | Purl Soho

Visit for free tutorials, projects and more! Short Rows are used to create triangles or wedges within your knitting. They shape everything from bust darts to ear flaps. Basically, a Short Row is just that: a row that you don’t knit to the end of the needle. There are lots of ways to turn your work partway through a row, but our favorite is called a Wrap Turn (wrp-t). This simple method prevents holes along the Short Rows and works well with many different stitch patterns. Bonus Clip: How to Pick Up A Purl Wrap On The Knit Side
