Autumn Cape A long Term Project 2019 – More Hood Part 2

It has been a long time since I have blogged about my Cape. This is due to being unable to concentrate on my design courtesy of a disruptive environment.

Pick Up Stitches

 

I have got to the point that I really hate. This is why I have been putting it off for as long as possible.

Stretching Stitches

Picking up Stitches is difficult so therefore I decided to stretch them first. A needle of the same size or larger is preferable to use.

Even Number

 

Since I am doing a Rib pattern I need to make sure that I have an even number of Stitches.

Cock Up

Oh rats. I never thought of that. I had the right number of Stitches but the Pattern doesn’t match up.

All Joined up

A bit of fiddling and I have managed to join up the Rib. Not sure what I am going to do next as yet.
