Hi all!
I’m a beginner knitter and am working on a pair of easy baby booties from this link:
It’s based on a Ravelry pattern that involves adding stitches (link and details in her post) but the above blogger reversed the pattern so that you decrease a row by binding off part of it instead (cast on 26, knit 10 rows, cast off 10, knit 6 stitches, cast off the other 10, then knit 22 rows of 6 stitches). I’m more comfortable with decreasing than increasing so I did it her way. Went great for the first 11 rows.
BUT!!! I’ve just finished the decreased row (i.e. Just did BO 10, k 6 sts, BO 10) and now I don’t know how to get the working yarn in the right spot to keep knitting the 6-stitch rows! It’s still hangin out up there by the last 10 bound-off stitches.
So, what do I do now? Do I cut the yarn, tie it off, and somehow reattach it at the beginning of my new short row? Or do I just pull the end down to the beginning of the new row and keep going? Or some other way I haven’t figured out? Hope that made some sense to somebody haha…thanks y’all!
