way to unravel stockinette a little?
So I'm making a shawl, and for the first 5 lines (of the shawl's top) I used stockinette st instead of kkkkk. Is there a way to straighten this mistake so it isn't as curled ? (it isn't too bad, but it doesn't fully show the pattern in the first 5 lines)

I'm not sure what you're asking... you want a way to make it stop curling? Stockinette does curl without a border. Even with a border it can still fold over, but it's worse if the border isn't wide enough.
