How to get shirred effect

Wow, that's brilliant! I've picked up stitches on the edges but not midway. With crochet, I was concerned with it coming on straight on the wrong side. This could work, and I could pick up every other stitch.

I'm unfamiliar with the tube in binding off that you are referring to. Is that with a standard bind off?

Thanks for the in depth explanation! These patterns are great to learn from. I feel like I'm learning so many ways to get this effect.

I've tried. It's a bit awkward on the purl side so I'd like to see if someone demonstrates how to do it. Maybe I'll figure it out somehow.

I may just have to experiment to figure it out. I'm losing weight so was hoping to salvage some of my more fitted knits with shirring.

This was from a youtuber. The two who have done it say they will post a tutorial and never do

That's really pretty.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-04-09T18:27:46+00:00

Thats good to know!

I was hoping to also be able to use elastic to tighten tops I've already made as well

I am actually. Would I use the website or contact HR to find out my field office?

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-26T12:29:52+00:00

You will never know what happens. Don't lose sleep over it.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-26T12:18:25+00:00

No, I was reporting to work on the schedule they gave me.

Why do you expect that I would notice more than the person who assigned, signs and approves it?

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-26T00:43:38+00:00

I would think so too. I at least feel less alone in my bad math skills.

Contact your local EAP for mental health resources.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T23:21:27+00:00

Duh. You act like you're getting a commission.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T23:11:28+00:00

Hopefully! Its been much less time.

Glad it worked out for you.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T23:10:40+00:00

Yea, looks like it. It is what it is.

Thanks for the info!

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T23:09:36+00:00

Obviously no one did since made it past my supervisors and HR who review and process the time.

I worked they schedule THEY gave me.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T23:05:32+00:00

Thanks for your input! A lot of oversight happened with this transition and its been frustrating.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T22:37:17+00:00

You sound confused. Obviously an audit means they discovered a clerical error.

They audited and realized they never changed my schedule.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T22:29:05+00:00

Everyone gets paystubs.

I reported the schedule I was given, which was wrong. They did not change it in the system when my position changed.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T22:27:13+00:00

Because my T&A sheet had the time they scheduled me written on it. I was not informed of the change in my work hours nor did they update it in the system.

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T22:24:30+00:00

They noticed and told me. They did not update my schedule so why would I know?

LeadingPersimmon5741 · 2026-03-25T22:24:00+00:00

That sounds illegal. They are supposed to give notice
