Thank heavens....

For the nice and informative element of the internet.

Not being a fantastic knitter, I didn’t know how to make 1 left (m1), nor knit into the front and back of a stitch, nor slip 2 stitches then knit (ssk).

Now I do, yay!

I have nearly finished my second cardigan for DGD and wanted to knit something else a little different. I found another free pattern on the internet, another all in one, help! The above instructions are all for that.

Watch this space.

  2. Like Sooze I just find knitting patterns a completely foreign language. You can have a square or a scarf and that's your lot if I knit for you :-)

    2. I know … I've done a few, although sometimes I lose interest and they become cushion covers instead :-)

  6. Years ago a talented friend tried to teach me to knit and all I ever ended up with was a balled up mess, The fact that you can figure this stuff out is amazing and I'm sure the baby things will be lovely.

    1. I am quite pleased with myself I have to say. I thought I wouldn't be able to contribute at all as my crochet skills are worse than my knitting.
