I’m new here. I’ve got a pattern for a child’s turban hat, which I’ve knitted successfully on straight needles but I want to now knit it on circular needles. My problem is getting the purl sections to purl properly. I have managed the initial purl section by knitting alternate rows of plain and purl, and it is just how I want it. The next section is stocking stitch, so that’s just rows of plain. That has worked fine. Now I come to the next section of ‘purl’ but i’m doing what I did in the first section, i.e. alternate purl and plain, but it’s not working! Also I’m changing colour here and don’t want the loop showing the change to be on the outside. I’ve undone it and redone it a number of times, changing the first row of the ‘purl’ section to be plain, then a purl row, but it’s still not working!
Can anyone advise please?
Thanks
