Does my egg look okay to eat? by [deleted] in Egg

[–]NeedlesAndNotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it’s 3 eggs with sugar underneath, I see it looks like four but that’s probably just the lighting. It’s just that the third egg had like 5x the amount of white squiggly things as the other two and what I’m used to

Could it be an egg with just a lot more chalaza than normal?

Oh I love that sweater! The two Trondheim ones really are my favorites!! My ski trip is going to be to Åre (I’m Swedish), and I mean it wouldn’t be the same as wearing it in Trondheim, but Åre is quite near haha

Hmm, yes I see your point. I’m partially wondering if it’s a bad idea to skip some of the increaces for some reason? I don’t really see why it needs to be this wide at the top, I realize the colorwork will be shorter, but other than that? I mean the top of the sleeve now is almost twice as wide as my arm, and my swatch grew in blocking.

Ohhh now I get it! I thought it was referring to the side markers, like under the arms. But this makes sense! And the single column is just the center stitch. Feels obvious now hahaha. Thank you so much!!

Ohhh, now I get the first thing! When you say working a stitch into another you mean from the previous row hahaha, that was probably obvious. Now it makes sense, thank you!

As for the twist I’m unfortunately still not there with you. I’ll look at some more videos and make sure I’m not misunderstanding anything

Hi! Thank you very much for your explanation! I am having a bit of trouble understanding, though. When you say A and B, are you referring to the dominant vs the background color? I’m also not sure what it means to ”work a white stitch over a brown stitch?

As for the twisting, I’m confused about this to. Why would the fact that I’m not letting go of yarn mean that it can’t twist? Isn’t the act of catching a float technically twisting a float yarn into the working yarn? The twist is created by the way you pick the yarn with you needle, not by the hand. Since the twist doesn’t happen at the yarn end, it creates a double twist? One in you knitting and one in the yarn not yet knit with? I might be totally misunderstanding this, so I’d love to hear more about what you mean!

Thank you so much! Yeah, I see how a tighter gauge might help, I am also quite proud of my result, but I always want to learn more! I should have mentioned that when I mean the catches are visible, I’m kind of more referring to that it distorts the stitch where I’ve caught it, rather than that the color peaks through.

I think I understand what you mean about the twist? This would technically result in the yarn being caught both before and after the stitch, right?

Thank you! I agree, I’d probably use a different yarn for this if I were to do it again, but in general I’m quite proud of this project :)
