Marjorie M Any pattern? What if your source pattern is a âVâa neck and you want a turtle neck, or a circular neck and you want a shawl collar? |
Marjorie M If you have a ribber, could you do âUâ knitting for width? |
Patricia H Could you have knitted it sidways and attached? |
Mary K also need to make neckline larger |
Nancy M Sue you have to increase to get that cowl to hang right...either increase sts or loosen tension |
Marjorie M JUst a rectangular piece added and not seamed at ends. |
Jean S The cowl was too tight and splitting it make it work |
Mary K not enough stitches used |
Cynthia P otherwise it would have been too tight. |
Erin p Didn't fit over your head |
Patricia H Doesn't lay well |
Cynthia P you didn't sew up the seam |
Ritta K didn't make it large enough?? |
Marie-Jo C Amen, yes! |
Jean S Amen! Its almost a mantra...swatch...swatch..swatch! |
Mary K yes |
Patricia H Amen!! |
Nancy M tsk tsk tsk...no swatch?!?! |
Nancy M a glutton for punishment could hand manipulated the ribs stitches in the round |
Marie-Jo C Good idea, Nancy ! |
Nancy M elastic thread could be used to do the hand stitching |
Marie-Jo C ok, thank you, Sue ! |
Judy P no, for the fold at the abase of the cowl. think a few rows of short row might make the difference. Do you think so? |
Nancy M be careful to keep stitching loose...you want to keep the stretch in the neckline |
Marie-Jo C ... through it ! |
Marie-Jo C The neckline must be very wide because after knitting the collar, the head must pass throught it ! |
