Purl Backwards

Knitting Videos » Tips and Tricks » Purl Backwards

To purl backwards, insert the left-hand needle from front to back through the first stitch on your right-hand needle. Wrap the yarn around the left-hand needle counter-clockwise (towards you), and then pull the stitch on the right-hand needle over the wrap and off the needle.
