Finally I got my circular Addi on Friday to do the edges around the cardigan and around the sleeves. After several mistakes (first, I picked up to little stiches around the corner -> rip, then I found out that there is a "hole"-> another rip), finally I manage to finish this project. Then directly try it on my baby on top of her shirt. And ...... it fits nicely.

It took me so long because I had to wait for my Addi circular needle to arrive (see this post).
Overall, I like my knitting experience although crochet is still my first love. I hate it when I had some mistake and I have to unpick. Regardless, I would like to take more chalanging project in the future. Probably some lace and cardigan for myself.
About my new needle? I love it!! I love knitting more after I use this needle. Probably I will order another sizes.
I saw your post on the forum! Glad you like the addis. Aren't you glad you didn't buy the interchangeable set?
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you would give us the pattern stitch for us? I love the pattern on this. It's one I would like to use on a project of mine. You do fantastic work and I absolutely love your styles!!

Hi Barbara, I can't find your email address, so I will answer your question here. The pattern stich is very easy. You just do YO follow by k2tog, or k2tog follow by YO on the place you want to have a hole.
