Japanese Short rows are a very neat and easy way to shape knitting. By using a stitch marker, I do feel that this method is especially suitable for beginners. However, there is quite some conflicting information out there on how to knit them. So, this video shows you the standard textbook method and one improved way I unvented in the process of doing some research for a sweater that I am currently knitting. This second version is so neat and invisible that I do feel it's perfect for shawls, raising the neckline and other similar projects where you can keep multiple stitches between each short row turn.
