making glittens

Nov 05, 2008 10:26

given that this is my first knitting project for which i am supposed to make two identical things, i am making notes to myself about how i did it.

cast on 48 stitches, distribute to 12 stitches on each of 4 needles.
k2p2, add a stitch marker to mark the inside and outside of the first stitch, when you free up a needle, borrow a stitch from the next needle to the needle you've been knitting from, then knit onto the free needle.
do the ribbing for 30 rows, so that you knit up to the first marker, and the marker on the other side should have 6 borrowed stitches to the left of it.
move the marker over, increase by doing the gap-twist-knit thing, knit first stitch, increase again, then knit all the way.
knit 2 more rows, then do increases again, 2 more rows, increase row, etc.
