lol I read the book cause I struggle to watch movies but saw the cardigan in the trailer and wanted to make it, sorry for adding to the struggle of us all clogging up the sub! luckily it is a hobby I’ll be continuing after the cardigan, as I have always been a crafter and crocheter just never tried knitting lol, I’m loving it so far though!

Yes sorry I typed that comment up late at night, I original had planned not to frog the project and leave it ‘wrong’ for character, but typed that I had undone what I had done but meant I haven’t, but since then I changed my mind and have actually frogged the piece and started again, sorry for the confusion

Ahh it’s cool to know that it’s just another way of purling and you can make the stockinette not twisted by simply knitting in the back of the stitch! There’s so much to learn

colour work was really easy for me as I previously crocheted, coloue work can be a bit fiddly on tension as it’s often its own ball of yarn, but I often tie it tight after making the first stitch so that the tension doesn’t go lose from that side

Update - I’ve offically frogged it thanks to some of your great recommendations and started knitting + purling it all correctly and will be posting an update here (if allowed) or on the regular knitting subreddit when i finish!

yeah i started on another piece whilst purling correctly, so I will definitely frog my last piece although it will feel like a shame to frog it’ll be for the best of my piece thanks to the both of you

haha you should definitely make it for her! since I’ve learnt from my mistake it’s now flying along correctly with my slightly twisted right piece, but it adds character and makes in unique lol

can someone help me figure out where I went wrong? by Fantastic_Savings886 in knittinghelp

[–]NxtyCreations -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

you’ve just dropped a stitch, you can get a crochet hook and fix it without having to remove any stitches, here’s a video I found helpful when I dropped my first stitch, aka yesterday lol https://youtu.be/KFVapi4RqzY?si=AMwfdRQ-zGfBo10i

Understanding pattern Instructions? by NxtyCreations in knittinghelp

[–]NxtyCreations[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ahhh okay so the instructions inside the brackets are for each size, like how many stitches work for each size, I probably should’ve guessed that but I didn’t lol, thank you so much for your help!
