New knister needs help

#1

Help :frowning: Iā€™m still working on my first real knit projectā€¦a basket weave pattern baby blanket for my first grandbaby due next month. I have dropped a stitch on the edge and Iā€™m not sure how to pick up the stitch and work it back up the 3 rows that it unraveled through. I have learned how to pick up stitches and correct wrong stitches, but Iā€™m confused by the edgeā€¦There are loops instead of the ladder. :help: Thanks

oooh, Iā€™m not sure how to do that either-but I did want to mention you may get more help if you post this question in the ā€œHow-to Questionsā€ section.

I think you could just pull it through the loop over and over till you get it back up to your current row. But Iā€™d wait for someone elseā€™s advice, because Iā€™ve not been knitting all that long and I always call my dmom when I have a problem :blush: lol-sheā€™s always the voice of calm and helps me not panic.

Congratulations on your new grandbaby!

Thanks for the reply and the suggestion, Jaxhil. I went to the Questions thread and someone posted the exact same ? for a scarf that they are working on. Her thought was to frog until she got past the dropped stitch, something I had considered. I was just hoping for an easy, quick fix :slight_smile: But it may be faster to go ahead and rip and then get back to :x: :x: :x: Iā€™ll probably catch back up before I figure out how to pick up the dropped stitch :thinking:
