I have a pattern where I’m ready to shape shoulders. The instructions say: “At each shoulder edge” bind of X# of stitches. The part I’m trying to decide on is if they mean bind off at the beginning of the row that designated # of stitches, and at the end of the row. I’m used to shaping on just the beginning of each row.
Shaping shoulders
Welcome to the forum!
Many patterns are written that way but the usual way to work this is just as you have been doing: bind off at the beginning of the row, work to the end, turn and bind off at the beginning of the next row.
There are ways to work the bind off at the end of the row but they’re really not necessary. Binding off at the beginning of rows works terrifically well.
Thank you! I was stuck and was reading the instructions too literally. I needed confirmation!
