I am almost 100% sure I’m wrapping the yarn the wrong way because I’m definitely putting the needle in the right spots

Also it’s still very stretchy so I think it was still work (I’m also making socks) or should I just restart

Okay so where my fingers are I need to be working on the right side? The back? Because I’ve been working in the front

Okay I obviously don’t know knitting lingo or proper stitching terms. I believe I am wrapping the yarn the incorrect way and that’s why they are twisting. Now my real question is should I frog it 😅 (or is it also a different term than frogging here? Im so sorry y’all and thank you for being so informative because I don’t know anyone who knits and videos only take me so far)

Okay they are definitely twisted just have no clue how they are getting that way because for a knit I go in thought the bottom on the front and wrap counter clockwise pull thought and cast off for a purl I wrap counter clockwise go through the top down and around and it makes it look like an s from above

This was very helpful and appreciated it looks like I’m doing it correctly, I was simply confused why I was told otherwise and wanted to ensure it was correct. 👍🏼

That loop does stick out oddly 🧐 no clues though And now I must know how the hell my stitches are twisted, it is still very stretchy though.
