Question on a pattern someone posted
It was quite awhile back, and I don't recall who posted it, but it was one
of those SAVE type... It's called LADDER OF LIFE and the poster put it exactly like this: Row 1: k4, p6 Row 2 (and all even rows): purl Row 3: knit Row 5: p 5, k4, p1 Row 7: knit Repeat rows 1 to 8. My question is row 5... should it actually be: P5 * k4, p6 ... repeat from * ??? TIA, Noreen -- STRIP * tease * to email me. |

That's a pattern published in (I believe) IK after 9/11, would have
been the Winter '01 edition. The last time I looked the pattern is still available on www.interweave.com complete with photo. I haven't made the socks so can't speak to your question, but the pattern on the website should be correct. PDF format IIRC.

Slinky, As informative as your answer is, it's not quite what I'm looking for... NOT the ladder of life socks, this is just a pattern for afghans, squares, scarves, stoles, etc.... But thanks for your input!! Noreen -- STRIP * tease * to email me. |

Question back at you. Does the pattern give a multiple to cast on? And yes,
it amounts to the same thing after the initial group, but the odd notation may also be a matter of what happens at the end of the row. I've seen patterns written that way before and sometimes just concluded it was a matter of being seriously economical with words or a phobia about stars. | On Sat, 13 Dec 2003 20:24:32 -0600, Noreen's Knit*che wrote: It was quite awhile back, and I don't recall who posted it, but it was one of those SAVE type...
