Very happy I had figured out the wrap and turn stitch. The problem is I'd been doing it wrong initially and discovered I preferred doing it the wrong way . . . what can I say . . . I am a knitting rebel!!
Pam, I don't think there is a wrong way to do short rows or wraps and turns. I have tried at least 2 wrap and turn methods but most frequently use the German/double stitch method for short rows because it is faster and looks just as good.
Your magic diamond block looks great! I like patchwork and quilting and they remind me of half-square triangle quilts.
I have done two scarves that work similarly and they are fun, easy, and great looking in variegated yarn with long repeats. People thing they are difficult with all the triangles.
what book clubs to you belong to? are they on line? Pauline
ReplyDeleteHi Pauline, I don't actually belong to any book clubs. "Book Clubs" is the tag I use for the books I review. Thanks for visiting my blog. Pam
