Japanese Short Rows WITHOUT Pins???

[maman]

Does anyone know how to do this?? Have you found any online tutorials that teach how to FIND the stitches used in Japanese short rows? I know the pins are supposed to help you find the stitches, but with my current project I end up using 20+ pins at a time to hold stitches. I would love to learn how to find the correct stitches (hard just looking at it on my own).

Suggestions??

I really like the way the Japanese short rows look in the Lizard Ridge afghan pattern, rather than my wrap & turns, which leave unsightly holes and randomly stretched yarns across the front of my work (I am twisting some stitches, I fear).
