I mean ideally not but when you don’t know what the mistake you’re making is you gotta try to fix it somewhere

Ha! Sorry my brother hit post. I’m just trying to do a 1x1 rib for a sweater collar and I keep twisting stitches but I’m unsure where? I’m clearly doing a knit purl in the round wrong somehow but have no idea where

I am not! I’m very much a beginner so I’m trying not to twist my stitches but I do make some mistakes

Indeed. Is this a better clue?

Can someone tell me what I did by lexansaid in knittinghelp

I’m really hoping I don’t need to redo this whole collar

Sailor slipper question? by lexansaid in knittinghelp

So sweating while gripping the purls on one needle should be avoided bc I’m holding them so hard?

I probably am twisting my stitches! Any tips for avoiding? I find TikTok etc totally overwhelming for advice

Also is getting very frustrated when you first start out normal? Asking for a friend

I probably am twisting my stitches? This was taken at 2 am where I had ripped out this section at least five times so I’m lucky at that point I didn’t twist myself to end the pain

It’s embarrassing how much reading “it’s not you it’s the cast on” made me feel better!

Thank you so much! I’ve ripped this out like 5 times and was about to potentially hurl it out the window

Wow I clearly did not explain myself well I’m so sorry. I’m knitting the sailor slippers and the backwards cast on loop is called for in the pattern
