HOW
TO FIX MISTAKES
Have
you ever dropped a nasty little stitch,
or gotten 2 inches up and noticed a nasty little Purl stitch
peeking out where a Knit stitch should have been,
or found a nasty little hole created by a yarn
over?
Or
maybe you picked up your knitting and
started going the wrong direction
(which also created a nasty little hole in your work).
Does
all this sound a little nasty and familiar?
Let's learn how to fix these nasty little mistakes...
...and usually without tearing out the entire
project!
Do
you perhaps recognize any of these mistakes.....

(using a stockinette stitch: knit 1 row,
purl 1 row). *
Please use
plain, light colored yarn

Yarn
should be Worsted weight and no lighter than DK or Sport. *
Do
not Bind-off. *
Please leave the needles on the swatch. (top)
~
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ MATERIALS *
One extra set of needles that are 2 to 3 sizes smaller
than the
needles that were used to make the swatch). *
A
crochet hook that is equivalent to the size of the needle
that you used to
make the swatch...or 1 size
smaller. *
The Knit Gauge can show you the correct size...if you are not sure. *
A
Coil-less pin or locking
ring marker (or a small stitch marker will do). *
Pen and paper
for taking a few notes. *
One
large smile - for the rest of us - will do nicely as well.
