TIP: " I find it [mock ribbing] very useful for the fine gauge machine as the regular ribbing tends to be a bit floppy - even 2 x 2 industrial rib. The 1 x 1 mock ribbing is especially useful for cuffs". - Phillipa
| Sue Jalowiec Till next time ... bye everyone! |
| Sue Jalowiec @Carol - Buttonholes - has been on the"to do" list for too long ... adding it to the Queue for a Tuesday show |
| Nancy M Barbara, if you sare using very fine (2/24) yarn double strand, you can do the inside or facing part using onle one strand. YOU will have to change your tension but it does cut down the bulk somewhat. |
| Sue Jalowiec Merci Marie-Jo! |
| Sue Jalowiec @Carol - you are not alone ... that's why we started Knit it Now. |
| Marie-Jo C Nice moment, Sue ! Merci et à mardi<;;; |
