Short
rows:
On
the skirt there are short rows used. When you turn work don't pass
your yarn to the back to knit the stitch but pass it over the needle.
This forms a yo. When working the next row that closes the gap knit
the next stitch together with the yarn over. Gives a nice smooth
line. Alternatively
you can just turn and knit work normally as in the instructions.

With
this swatch I played with 2 colours to try to show the difference the
two versions give. The first two coloured sections are from version
one, then the second are version two. The plain coloured sections are
made with the different versions, there is a minimal difference when
in one colour but a more visible one in two row stripes. I then
actually made the swatch into a skirt.
A
new fashion! Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteThank you for your circular skirt pattern. I knit Mary Jane's tea room bears and bunnies to supplement my pension.
This is exactly what I am looking for. Can't wait to get clicking way
