Another Spiderman question. In my first attempt at Spiderman, the pelvis had a bunch of short rows which left a ton of huge holes. I messed up the first attempt so I scrapped it, and started over. It seems the internets want me to w&t to alleviate those holes from the short rows. Below are 20 rows from the pattern.
First, where do I insert the wrap? Is it on stitch 11 on row 2, for example? Or do I actually wrap a 12th stitch? Second, where do I pick up the wraps according to this pattern? Would I pick up the wrap from row 2 in row 18?
Side note…the pattern writer’s first language is Russian, and some sections are hard to follow. I ignored the part about not knitting the first loop in row 2 because I didn’t know what she was saying. Do you think she means to slip the first stitch of row 3? If so, should I do that in the other knit rows too?
Pelvis (22 stitches):
Row 1: KR;
Row 2: p11 and turn the knitting, don’t knit the first loop and go to
Row 3: k11;
Row 4: p9 and turn;
Row 5: k9;
Row 6: p7 and turn;
Row 7: k7;
Row 8: p5 and turn;
Row 9: k5;
Row 10: p3 and turn;
Row 11: k3;
Row 12: p5 and turn;
Row 13: k5;
Row 14: p7 and turn;
Row 15: k7;
Row 16: p9 and turn;
Row 17: k9;
Row 18: p11 and turn;
Row 19: k11;
Row 20: work p11 and turn. Leave the knitting on an extra needle.
At this point, you knit the second leg/pelvis, then you place the left and right leg/pelvis on one needle and knit across to make the body. I guess I would pick up the wrapped stitch from row 20, correct?
