i just bought the new knitsimple magazine. I saw a throw pattern i really like and skill level is beginner , which i thought i was well beyond. I cannot make this mitered square. I need some help.
I don't exactly know what I'm doing wrong. I'm supossed to be making squares but they're not coming out as squares.
co 21 mark last st for center co 20 =41sts
row 1 sl 1, k to marker, sl 1 wyif, k to end
row 2 sl 1, k to 1 st before marker, s2kp, k to end-39 sts
rep row 1&2 until 3 sts rem
What i'm doing is: co21 put in marker then co21
row 1 when i get to the wyif do I put the yarn to the bac to cont knitting?
I think when I take the marker out to do the s2kp I may not be putting the marker back correctly.
somehow I was on row 18 ready to do row 2 and i only had like 3sts before the marker and 20 sts after the marker.
When you use the marker put it in the stitch not on the needle. Use a paperclip, safety pin or bobby pin if you don't have removeable markers, or a piece of yarn a different color. Leave it in the st, you can still knit it with the marker in, and move it up every few rows. After 6 or 7 rows you should be able to see which is the center st, that's the one you put your needle into first when you slip for the dec.
