How to put a lifeline in your knitting

In this DROPS video we show how to put a lifeline into your knitting. When you knit lace and other patterns adding a so called lifeline can save you a lot of trouble. After finishing a full repeat of pattern, sew a strand of yarn, or like we do a strand of dental floss through all sts on needle. If you then a few rows later mess up, you can easily and safe unravel back to the sts on the lifeline, put sts back on needle and give it a new shot. After next repeat, add one more lifeline. Using dental floss is great since you will not have any trouble pulling it out of the work later, and also being thin but never will break. This video has NO SOUND - you must read the pattern to be able to follow this video properly.
