This one of the best sites that I have on my PC. All of the issues are in a file and I have started to practice doing them. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
thank you for being here. i wish i hadn’t been so scared to sign earlier. I like the Videos. making notes.
God Bless you both
I really like this rib and would like to use it for socks. Is there a pattern that would enable you to work it in the round?
you would need to reverse the wrong side rows. so knits would be purls and visa versa.
Thank you. So easy…will try it!
This lovely stitch looks great on both the front and back. Would make a very nice looking cowl.
