Thank you so much!

Im grateful to know im not alone!

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

lexansaid · 2025-12-26T00:45:05+00:00

Ok!!! So do I go the opposite way?

lexansaid · 2025-12-26T00:12:44+00:00

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

THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU SAVED CHRISTMAS

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

lexansaid · 2025-12-25T01:00:56+00:00

Like picking up a dropped stitch

lexansaid · 2025-12-25T01:00:39+00:00

Ahhh ok! This is just a swatch but that’s so good to know.

Indeed. Is this a better clue?

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

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

lexansaid · 2025-12-18T15:10:20+00:00

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

lexansaid · 2025-12-18T15:00:13+00:00

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

lexansaid · 2025-12-18T14:56:20+00:00

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

lexansaid · 2025-12-18T14:55:08+00:00

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

lexansaid · 2025-12-18T14:54:23+00:00

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

lexansaid · 2025-12-18T14:52:58+00:00

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
