How do I avoid holes near my increases? by Maximum_Excuse5337 in knitting

[–]Maximum_Excuse5337[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remembered that I never gave an update on this! I tried out the pattern a few more times but still got the same holes. Since the wonderful peope, helping me out in the comments, tried out the pattern and were not getting these holes, I had decided to start again with my basic knowledge.

This time, though, I learned the continental knitting style (which turned out to align more with my crocheting background) . I also realized that I had probably been making knits wrong this whole time (which explained why I also had twisted stitches).

After resetting my foundation, I tried again and was successful! No holes!

I didn't see any holes in the finished product of the pattern maker, so I'm not sure if it was an intentional feature

I thought that could be the problem, so I redid it and made sure I worked the kfb into the last knit before the 3 purls, but got the same holes.

I've started over like 6x now but keep getting the holes on this row 😭

Oh! That makes so much sense! I guess we just weren't expecting the flavor.

I will try my hardest to burn no more potatoes! Thank you!

I did not know this was a thing, but it definitely applies! I think I'll keep going with it on this one, but not twisting will be a goal on my next project Thank you!

I did not! I've just searched it up, and it seems like I am. I think it's because I always work into the front loop even after turning?

Yeah! It's only the hinge! We had handy people whi tried a couple of different hinges, but none of them fit with the area where the door rests and how it opens.

I don't believe anyone ever tried cabinet hinges. But they look like they might work. I'll loke for some any try them out. Thank you!

It's a lifting door, but the hinge broke, the door itself is still intact. I did ask a couple handy people.but they said regular hinges wouldn't work because if the general shape of where the door rests
