In the spirit of 2008 Fearless Knitting, I’ve cast on for the Celtic Tote from the Winter '07 Interweave Knits.
Well, I’m struggling with the first 2 rows of the cable chart and the double increases!! I finally got through the RS (right side) double increase with the help of an online illustration I found.
But instructions for the WS (wrong side) double increase just says to work p1, k1, p1 all in the same stitch. :whoosh:
?? Any advice or online tutorials??
Thanks in advance!
Ypu may want to see how this looks but I have heard that you can do a yo instead of the k1, so it would be p1 yo p1 all in the same stitch… HTH!
P1 K1 P1 all in the same stitch would look like this:
-purl the stitch, do not slip original stitch off left needle
-bring yarn to back and knit the same stitch, do not slip original stitch from left needle
-return yarn to front, purl same stitch and now you may slip the original stitch from left needle.
You’ve made 3 stitches from one.
Thank you both!! I’m anxious to get beyond row 2 and am going to give this a try. :woohoo:
