converting knitting pattern to crochet
Hi gang, I'm embarking on a big project that I need your help with and
will result in a couple of postings! I found some really nummy knit patterns but I prefer crochet. I want to convert the pattern to crochet and I know this is something you can do. I have a book that gives the crochet stitch to match each knit stitch. I'm want to do a pretty easy Rowan pattern of a coat length cardigan. It is very straight forward with no collar, hem, etc. It uses a stocking stitch. My crochet guage matches the knit gauge perfectly. Advice, suggestions, guidance? Thanks, Laurie Washougal, WA |
