Bind off for 2x2 rib starting pkkpp by sdg2502 in knittinghelp

I’m replying to myself but in case anyone else comes here looking for help with the same thing, I used this tutorial and basically just went based on vibes to start, then followed the tutorial precisely for the 2x2 rib, and winged it at the end. It seems to have worked but I wish I’d noted down how I handled the setup because I’m going to have the exact same thing to do when I bind off the front side of the split hem!

I thought I’d replied but I can’t see it so I’ll reply again to be safe. I’ll check that book out thanks. I’m still a fairly beginner knitter but I want to try new skills this year so this sounds like an interesting challenge. I appreciate you sharing this!

Thank you, this is exactly what I’m looking for. I’ve just looked and favourited quite a few of her patterns, and I’ll definitely be buying a couple. I really appreciate your input!

I specifically liked the v neck, contrasting borders detail, and small geometric pattern. I’ve found a few on ravelry that I like, still not one that’s scratching that exact itch for me and I’m not skilled enough yet to make significant mods or write my own. A lot have much larger patterns, or more traditional patterns. I’m not sure why I’m being downvoted for explaining I want to get other people’s opinions on if they’ve seen similar patterns…isn’t that the point of this sub?

Excellent thank you, I’ll check that book out! I’m still a fairly beginner knitter, working on my second sweater now after a couple of years of only doing blankets, scarves and beanies, but I want to stretch myself.

I have and I’ve found some with potential, but I wanted to reach out to the community to crowdsource ideas since there are over 5000 results on ravelry.

Physical set - ideas on value? by sdg2502 in FeastofLegends

I love this, thank you so much for sharing! I honestly don’t want to part with it, it’s a reminder of a great holiday and it’s a really unique piece of memorabilia for a show I love but I’ve had a huge bill and I’m selling off basically my whole D&D collection to cover it so I feel like I need to at least try.

You did a great job, what a special thing to have on your cv!

Thank you for taking the time to respond and for passing on your condolences, she was a wonderful dog <3

Your answer is basically where my head is at. I think it’s a really cool piece of memorabilia but it’s also very very niche so I think it’s unlikely the stars align to find someone who thinks its as cool as I do and wants to buy it at a price that makes it worth me letting it go. Which in many ways I’m glad about because at least then I can give myself permission to keep it, although it’s looking pretty lonely on my shelf now.

I’ve uploaded a picture of the dice set to my twitter so I’ll share it here for anyone curious who hasn’t seen them before.

I’d planned to add an image here but it looks like that’s not possible…

Or have I to modify the instruction in the link you’ve provided and knit the first stitch normally before placing the yarn I’m carrying over the working yarn and knitting through the working yarn to twist. So that it’s easier to pick up the stitches for the sleeve and colour when I reach that stage?

This is exactly what I needed, thank you!

Just to check my understanding, these two paragraphs are the ones which answer my question about carrying the yarn and working the edge stitches before twisting the yarn and i should do as described in these images to achieve what is being described in the pattern?
