Comment on I hereby resolve…. by Janey

Am probably too late to ask about test knitting your visor beanie … but I will still ask.

I have over 40 years of knitting experience. I have knit caps, scarves, socks, sweaters, etc. for pay (piecework) - for a vendor of knitted goods at the Halifax Farmers’ Market in Nova Scotia, Canada. As well as slippers, dishcloths and other assorted items - for myself or as presents.

I have test knit one item - an Acoustic Guitar Dishcloth.
It is pictured here: http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-GXLushEib6cIzxPdnOMneYgAIsvB
in the May 31, 2007 blog entry.

Thank your for your consideration,
Janey W.

Comment on Textured Bands Hat Pattern by Jennifer

Thanks for the pattern. I used different colors, but otherwise followed exactly. I had some leftover solid and marled Paton’s in denim and natural, so I used them. The hat knitted up quickly, and fit my large head quite nicely (and warmly). I was even asked for the pattern. I think I will make another, since mine has been “adopted:”, and try variagated instead of marled yarn. Thanks again!

Hi - Thanks so much for this pattern. I’ll post my finished project on ravelry (knittensilly).

I think there is an error in rounds 5, 7, 9, 11, etc…
Shouldn’t round 5 say *K8, k2tog*? And then each subsequent odd row decrease the number knitted?

SH Round 1: *k10, k2tog* (66 stitches)
SH Round 2: knit
SH Round 3: *k9, k2tog* (60 stitches)
SH Round 4: knit
********************************************
SH Round 5: *k9, k2tog* (54 stitches)
********************************************
SH Round 6: knit
SH Round 7: *k8, k2tog* (48 stitches)
SH Round 8: knit
SH Round 9: *k7, k2tog* (42 stitches)
SH Round 10: knit
SH Round 11: *k6, k2tog* (36 stitches)
SH Round 12: *k5, k2tog* (24 stitches)
SH Round 13: *k4, k2tog* (18 stitches)

Comment on Assembling a Twisty Turns Wrap by Mimi

Many many thanks. That was easier to understand….I’m afraid it was extra complicated with the pins and the tags the directions called for. My husband has a background in engineering, so its becoming his “construction” assignment. many many thanks for all of your good help!

I blogged this hat today, linking to your site for the pattern. Just a heads up about some online gushing :-}

Comment on Twisty Turns Wrap - Untangled! by Mimi

I just finished knitting the Twisty Turns wrap as a Christmas gift. I have put half of it together, and the second half, for me, is very difficult. Do you recall a trick you might have used for assembling this? I’ve used the safety pins, and the separate tags for letters, but I still can’t figure out how the second “loop” works….I’d love some advice as Christmas draws near! Many thanks, Mimi

I am interested in this hat. Can you be more specific as to its dimensions for both single strand and double strand? Thanks.
