Noro yarn help please!
Well, I just finished this morning. I took the whole thing apart after
reading all of your suggestions here and started over again. Now it is a full two skeins long in a wonderful looking seed stitch (which I had to do several times before I got it right) and it lays flat and looks wonderful! Now I have a spare skein to make one of those ear warmer thingies that goes around the head! Thanks for all of your help! -- Dannielle from NY http://www.beitzell.com/dannielle/index.htm "Annette Zimmerman" wrote in message ... Hi Dannielle! I just finished a shawl in this beautiful stuff. I slipped the first stitch of each row, and it didn't curl at all. But I think it would also be wonderful doubled over...nice and warm that way! Oh, and I had a problem with blocking...the label says "dry clean", but it's colorfast and when I pinned it out and spritzed it, it did just fine. Have fun working with it! I was very sad when my project ended! Annette Z "Dannielle Beitzell" wrote in message t.net... Hello all. I hope you don't mind me jumping in and asking a question here. I don't often get a chance to read this group as this isn't my main craft. I am working on a scarf for my DMIL using Noro yarn. It is the first time I have ever used this fabulous Japanese yarn, however as I knit it is curling up on me (on the long sides). I am using size 9 bamboo needles and I am knitting a row and then purling a row. Has anyone ever used this stuff and have any hints or tips about the curling? I think I might have to stitch the long sides together and make it a tube scarf just to get it to lay right. -- Dannielle from NY http://www.beitzell.com/dannielle/index.htm |
