My lesson for today: Never, ever try a new technique without watching the YouTube video first. I’m knitting a pair of port and starboard socks for a friend. Started one on small circs, then thought, this would be a great project to try two at a time. Knitted up sock two to match, and figured I’d just knit them on to one long circ. Yeah right. Off to watch the video now …
That’s a fabulous word 😆
Sorry about the tangle. Second time’s the charm!
Or in my case, fourth time is a charm! It took me that long to figure out that knitting the socks on to the long circular was never going to work. I had to MOVE the second needle stitches on to the second needle. I used to knit magic loop socks all the time, I think some old muscle memory finally clicked in.
(Scots does have all the best words. I’ve been glaikit tonight for sure, a real daftie.)
