Need help with charts please
Many of you have read my rants on how I hate charts..... well, I'm knitting
a sweater for dear granddaughter with a lovely design and there are FOUR charts! Ick, ick, ick. The sweater in question is in the September 2006 Creative Knitting mag. Woodsy White Pullover on page 34; the charts are on page 76. The charts I'm asking about are Chart C and D It's back and forth knitting on straight needles. The chart has numbered rows (of course) The odd numbered rows have the numbers on the left side of the chart The even " rows have the numbers on the right side of the chart. Here's my question. Do I read from right to left on the RS and left to right on the WS? Aaaugh! Thanks in advance Shelagh |

Hi Shillelagh: With the right side of the work facing you, you
will read and work the chart from right to left. On wrong side rows, read and work from left to right. Thats a pretty pullover, I'm sure your DGD will love it.

"Mirjam Bruck-Cohen" wrote in message ... POOR SHELAGH ,, 4 Charts FOUR CHARTS eeeeeeee how do you keep that up ? Luckily the other two charts are very tiny, and easy to translate. One is for the bottom of the sweater (in place of ribbing) and cuffs for the sleeves and the other is for a band above the bottom. It's a beautiful design, and I have the front more than half done. Now that the proper procedure has been confirmed, I have been moving along quite well. I still hate charts (snarl). ;( I just received some Knit Picks Alpaca Cloud in the mail today. Black for a shawl for me, and a beautiful "autumn" colour for a Christmas shawl for my sister. I'm going to make the Candle Flame Shawl with this yarn. http://tinyurl.com/yec8l8 So I guess Peacock Feathers is off on a break til I finish the Christmas gift (smile). Have a great weekend.

I am only writing you to tell you that this was one of the things that was in my backpack when it was stolen on St. Catherine's Street a couple of weeks ago. Sigh! So I'll never see that pattern. Sigh! Higs, Katherine |

POOR SHELAGH ,, 4 Charts FOUR CHARTS
eeeeeeee how do you keep that up ? The chart has numbered rows (of course) The odd numbered rows have the numbers on the left side of the chart The even " rows have the numbers on the right side of the chart. if you knit the right side from right to left than you have to read it as is ,,, and if you knit back side from left to right you knit accordingly mirjam Here's my question. Do I read from right to left on the RS and left to right on the WS? Aaaugh! Thanks in advance Shelagh |
