Bea & Linda take the fear out of short rows!

Short Rows Definition: Short rows create vertical shaping in knitting. A short row is one in which you don't work to the end of the row; you stop and turn and work in the other direction. However, if you simply turn and start knitting in the other direction, your work will have a hole. The short row techniques are all methods to close that gap that is created by the turn.
