Momentum
First of all, thanks to everyone who commented the other day on the progress that I've been making on this charted test-knit pattern. I really loved reading your thoughts about this piece and feeling the support. I double-checked and the charts/pattern is correct so I guess it's me. What I mean to say is that I think it's the way my knitting transitioned from Chart A to Chart B -- because the design is extremely clever (and it truly is!), the piece shifts from a strict triangle slowly to a rectangle.
It might also have something to do with the yarn which is, as Julie once said about another new yarn that had recently joined my stash, a bit crispy.
I've almost completed half of the required repeats of Chart B which will give the scarf its length and then I'll be in the home stretch. For those of you who wrote that blocking will probably smooth out the rough spots, I tend to agree.
Wow, that's looking gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHave you spoken to the designer? The transition is noticeable. When I have knitters test knit for me, I am always glad that they ask questions. I have had knitters catch mistakes.
ReplyDeleteI ordered this yarn because of your beautiful photos. I can't wait to get them. It's always fun to discover new yarns.
It is certainly coming along! I think that you are going to run into issues just because it is a test knit. I really cannot wait until it is complete!
ReplyDeleteI still think it looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteIt's looks really neat and yes, I concur w/everyone and you that blocking will soften up the yarn and smooth everything out. Do you usually work on one project at a time?
ReplyDeleteI love the pattern. I am so envious of people who can knit.
ReplyDeleteWhat did the designer have to say about this situation?

That looks almost edible to me. Beautiful!
