I am trying to work out how to adjust for UK knitting style.<br /><br />SueSue Nelsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367383382523922876.post-11104259762625894292011-07-19T20:48:01.358-05:002011-07-19T20:48:01.358-05:00Hi "Anonymous"
I'm so happy to hear...Hi "Anonymous"<br /><br />I'm so happy to hear you like my pattern. I'm sorry it's taken a while to answer but I needed to refresh my memory on the details a bit so I can give you accurate info. Fortunately I keep one of these bags in progress just so I can answer questions like this.<br /><br />Okay so first of all with your new color B, as soon as you pick up the 8 st it's important to slip 1 of these picked up st back on to the left hand needle. When you do your ssk your slipping 1 st in color B and 1 st in color A and knitting them together. You should now have 7 st on the left needle. Turn your work and then:<br /><br />Row 1: purl 8, turn<br />Row 2: k7, ssk, (leaving 6st on left needle) turn<br />Row 3: p8, turn<br />Row 4: k7, ssk, (5st on left needle) turn<br />Row 5: p8, turn<br />Row 6: k7, sssk, (3st on left needle) turn<br />Row 7: p8, turn<br />Row 8: k7, ssk, (2st on left needle) turn<br />Row 9: p8, turn<br />Row 10: k7, ssk, (1st on left needle) turn<br />Row 11: p8, turn<br />Row 12: k7, ssk, (0st on left needle) "Square" is now complete!<br /><br />I hope this helps. Please feel free to contact me on Ravelry if you like, I'm knittingin there too.knittin ginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00154257444046337872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367383382523922876.post-7499126218820482832011-07-19T16:51:43.310-05:002011-07-19T16:51:43.310-05:00I love this pattern, but I'm about to knit the...I love this pattern, but I'm about to knit the "2nd Row of Squares" and something's not adding up right. I pick up 8 stitches knitwise and then as I do all the ssk and sssk's according to the pattern, I run out of stitches before I get to row 8. What am I missing here?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367383382523922876.post-68610758735970858512009-12-26T17:49:48.036-05:002009-12-26T17:49:48.036-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Ginnynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367383382523922876.post-44187747002329286252009-12-25T22:40:36.251-05:002009-12-25T22:40:36.251-05:00I am new but was trying to figure out the math. I...I am new but was trying to figure out the math. I think the first row of squares you only want to pick up 7 purl stitches. This seems to work out for me. Thanks for the pattern.<br /><br />Could you post the total yardage of yarn you used. I plan on doing all in the same varigated yarn.<br /><br />Thanks again!!<br />Carolyn (mnpickle)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03464852518796625274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367383382523922876.post-2778657820439529102008-03-10T14:48:00.000-05:002008-03-10T14:48:00.000-05:00You know I just LOVE your bags!
