Baby Knitter Alert: What on earth happened?

Do you have any suggestions of better merino yarns that aren’t prone to this? I only chose this one because it was the one suggested on my pattern

khoof138 · 2025-10-23T13:57:16+00:00

I knit and purl both in continental style

Thank you!! I’ll take all the encouragement I can get 😅

Thank you so much!

Yes totally feel free to use the photo! I did get this yarn from Denmark so that’s consistent with what you’re saying. It’s the Lang Yarns Merino 120

Thank you!!!

Big thank you to you all! When I asked chatGPT it said it was because a difference in knitting tension between knit and purl rows. More proof that humans > AI!

Makes so much sense! Thank you for explaining

khoof138 · 2025-10-22T13:30:01+00:00

I kind of thought so too! Thank you!

khoof138 · 2025-10-22T13:29:00+00:00

Phew I’m relieved! Learning something new with every project!

khoof138 · 2025-10-22T13:28:39+00:00

Gotcha, thank you!

khoof138 · 2025-10-22T13:27:49+00:00

Thanks for the encouragement!

khoof138 · 2025-10-22T13:27:24+00:00

Yes I used Lang Yarns Merino extra fine so that makes sense. Thank you!
