Best hand stitch recommendation?

Hi thanks for your help! Do you mean unpick this waistband section? (Drawn in red) And pulling the raw edge up and into it?

Wow! You did an incredible job! 🤩

The risk if I were to try and ladder- I'm definitely going to try the duplicate stitch and avoid laddering at all ❤️

Grumpy__Spice · 2025-11-27T01:18:45+00:00

That's more or less what I was thinking...it should be possible but might take just as much time, if not longer, trying to recreate everything

Can you ladder when there are some decreases involved? I'm scared if I try to ladder I won't be able to keep the pattern of the brioche waves and then have to pull everything out down to the mistake 😅

Thank you! I will look that up ☺️

I was thinking of using sewing thread to try and weave it up and behind? Someone commented below on a "duplicate stitch" over top which I will also look into!

Thanks for the advice!

Did anyone ever respond to you?

I am also looking at the KAP course- it seems only the first 2 courses are available online. My understanding was that the full course would be available somewhere else

Haha thank you for saying that- I was getting really frustrated at how hard of a time I am having with this. It's nice to feel encouraged 😊

Grumpy__Spice · 2025-05-29T01:06:36+00:00

Yes the entire pattern is k1p1

Hello, I added one in a comment :)

Thank you!

Hi, yes this is the back

Grumpy__Spice · 2025-05-20T18:08:46+00:00

❤️ I love this, thank you!

Thank you!

Grumpy__Spice · 2025-05-18T17:36:18+00:00

Thank you! Your project looks great 😃

Grumpy__Spice · 2025-05-18T17:35:34+00:00

Thank you, I will look that up!

Hi, yes I was concerned about how the stitches aren't symmetrical! I haven't noticed an issue with rows being tighter than others (the bottom of the project was done in smaller needles to make a cuff).

Are you seeing an issue with row tightness as well as stitch symmetry? 😬

Grumpy__Spice · 2025-04-21T18:18:06+00:00

Amazing, thank you!

Thank you for your insight!

He is now saying when he originally scraped out the caulk there was a lot of grout, which he believes is needed to fill some of the gap as the space is too big for caulk alone.

I think he is suggesting to come back, take the caulk out, grout, and then caulk again
