Me again, sorry for all the questions
This isn’t exactly a How-To questin, but I thouht this might be te most appropriate place.
So uh…what’s the difference between knit and garter? I was watching the garter video, and she said that you knit the one side, and then turn it around and knit the next…well…that’s what I was doing when I thought I was knitting. :shock:
You aren’t doing anything wrong. Knitting every row is called garter stitch. Alternating every row with purl is called stockinette or stocking stitch. I guess they need a name for the fabric created when doing the stitch.
If a pattern says three garter and 10 knit, you do knit all those stitches, but I suspect on the back it will say 10 purl and 3 garter–which would be 3 knit.
That’s it. Just remember to knit the first and last three stitches of every row, regardless of what side it is or what’s between them and you’ll be all set. You’re making a garter stitch edge.
