Knitting Help - Thrums / Thrumming

Thrums are a way to add warmth and bulk to a knitted item by knitting little bits of wool roving into the work. Next week, we'll release a thrummed mittens tutorial, and this is the technique on it's own. Many thanks to Knitter's Pride and their Marblz needles, for sponsoring this video.

The Knitter’s Pride tools I use in this video are Marblz circular needles from an interchangeable set that includes nine needle sizes.
