| You can see the center doesn't lie flat. Look around at the 4 wedges, you can see the one on the left is the smallest wedge and the wedge to the right of that is the largest. Somehow I must have counted wrong and placed my markers in the wrong place and so as I increased the one wedge grew larger than the rest and that meant one wedge was smaller and because they weren't even the throw won't lie flat. |

Beautiful yarn Daryl. Interesting pattern. I knitted a market bag for my daughter and you started from the center and worked out. The method I used was Emily Ocker's Beginning. I found a YouTube video which was very helpful. Not sure if it would help with this project or not.
ReplyDeleteAw that's a shame! Otherwise it would be a cute blanket! But you know what--a cold person won't care, as long as it's a warm blanket :)
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm not a knitter, but you know what I say: if you can't fix it, feature it! And you did... ;-) In all seriousness, particularly at this time of the year, there are probably (and sadly) lots of folks who can use some additional warmth. It will do the job.
ReplyDeleteHa, we've all done something similar, call it an art quilt now. I was knitting last night trying to whip up a quick washcloth. I miss read the pattern and instead of P2 tog I P2. lets just say I did a lot of blocking to fix the problem and it still is a bit wonky. As knitters we should never be over confident. I think your little throw looks great, just drape it over something and no one will know the difference.
