I started it, and it's really easy. It's so easy that your mind wanders and inevitably, if you're a scatterbrain like me, you will make a complete purl stitch here and there where you're supposed to be only slipping purl wise. Doing that, of course, connects the front of your pocket to the back rather inconveniently. You won't be able to see this mistake until you're finished, and the whole process is trickier and slower than knitting in the round, so any advantage is obliterated. It's still an interesting thing to know about. I learned how to knit 35 years ago and never encountered this before! Thanks!
Hi, I am wondering how to add a flap for a button close like you have on the seamless pouch but that fits the ds lite tightly. Could you give me directions?
Which BO method is best used for this pattern?
I'm confused as to how the project is finished off. Are you just binding off the end of the pattern, or are you placing the separated stitches on the needles and binding them together? By weaving together, are you 'sewing' the separated stitches together?
Thank you for your help! Megan
Don't worry, Mary, it's really easy.
You knit st1, slip st2 purl-wise with the yarn in front, then knit st3, etc.
So every odd-number stitch is knit
and every even0numbered stitch is slipped purl-wise wyf. Do this for every row of stockinette.
I'm confused about the ribbing on this: k1, bring yarn to front, slip st purl wise, purl 1, Then it says slip sts purl wise, What stitches do I slip purlwise? The next two stitches? Sorry to be dense- I'm not a really experienced knitter. Thanks Mary
