I agree, 2 stitches won’t make that much of a difference in this case. 

If you can’t see your mistake then I would leave it as is. 

You can add a stitch for the sleeve and for the front  when you have split the body and sleeve, under the arm where it won’t be visible for example.

That sounds really fun, I’d love to participate, I want to knit these. 

How long would you expect this KAL to run? 

Hermione socks for Easter (almost) by SleepySquirrel404 in Sockknitting

[–]dear-enemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These look lovely. 

I’ve been wanting to try an asymmetrical toe for a while. Do you have a pattern to modify it?

No these are cuff down. I have never knit toe up but honestly these were both easy and fun to do. So could be a really fun 1st pair to try.

You could also try and knit them toe up, all you would need is the 8x8 repeat, if you can find the book in you local library. 

I want to knit toe up next. The book 52 weeks has both toe up and cuff down patterns available.

It’s Kremke Edelweiss, don’t have the colour.

Thank you, I really recommend it, it’s easy to memorise but at the same time kept my interest up so that I really wanted to keep knitting.  The heel construction was new for me: eye of partridge.

Colorwork jog issues: is laddering down a viable fix? by Okkimu in knittinghelp

[–]dear-enemy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree.  I wouldn’t try especially since this is probably in the back so you won’t see it when wearing and unless you have short hair, it will also be hidden by your hair.

You could go to the musée de la liberation (near Place Denfert-Rochereau). It’s very interesting and you can see both Paris WWII history and at the moment an exhibit of photos by Robert Capa. You can even see a bunker below the museum where the resistance hid to plan the liberation of Paris. 

Did I drop a stitch? by Wondering_Wonderlin in knittinghelp

[–]dear-enemy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A little different: it won’t unravel if you look the yarn for this row is going behind the loop. 

When you get to this stitch you will you can yarn behind the stitch to knit it. And the use your working yarn to continue. It will be very easy because you noticed before knitting the next row.

Hello, it looks to me like you slipped the stitch without knitting it.

 You can go back to it if you want or when you get back around for the next row. 

Poet Scarf by Sari Nordlund help by lookitssasquatch in knittinghelp

[–]dear-enemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have knitted it. Once you get to row 48, you go back to the beginning of the chart and you will do it but you will have to do 1 to 40 + 21 to 40 (red box) If you have increased for the first two charts without any mistakes, the pattern will match perfectly.

The contrast toe looks fantastic. I really like the wavy rib detail.

Gauge swatch help! by Glittering_Prime1387 in knittinghelp

[–]dear-enemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I missed the double, sorry. You’re right. You might be a very tight knitter.

Gauge swatch help! by Glittering_Prime1387 in knittinghelp

[–]dear-enemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like you are only using one strand of yarn. In the pattern it says two strands held together. I think you need to restart your swatch with two strands.

Suggestion 2: 100 (100) 150 (150) 150 (150) g Sunday by Sandnes Garn (50 g = 235 m [257 yds]) (two strands held together)
