I surrender!
I surrender, let me out!
Oh the things you learn when making a new project... Casting off or binding off in a streeeeeeeeeetchy way isn't easy, let me confirm that to anyone who wants to hear! Zoe's sweater has been done with only the last row to deal with. Already I have grafted the underarms but it's the neck part that is driving me crazy. All evening I have tried and tried and tried on Zoe her finished sweater. It wouldn't fit so ripping out the cast off row time after time and starting over again.
Here are some new binding off ways I have learned after trying the regular easy cast off 3 times using bigger needles each time.
There's the suspended bind off, the icelandic kind, EZ's sewn cast off, tubular cast off.
Off to go rip out the row again. I want to start knitting the 2nd sweater for Lucas TODAY! :)
