Long story short, throw in another row of stitches if you'd like! :)Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-33131739613364825602018-05-05T08:48:00.375-07:002018-05-05T08:48:00.375-07:00Lovely pattern, and not really difficult, just too...Lovely pattern, and not really difficult, just took me some practice to get used to the lifted increases. One question, when I finish the final transition row, the working yarn isn't in the right place to do the Kitchener graft. When I put the right sides of the cowl together, the working yarn will either be on the front needle or on the left end. Did I miss something? I can just throw in another row of knit stitches, but I thought I'd ask.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722117969104197121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-7241835951132575782016-01-20T11:57:01.051-08:002016-01-20T11:57:01.051-08:00Oh yeah, you can totally do this!

Plus, even if you kinda maybe sorta screw it up, it'll still look decent! Let me know if you have any questions. :)Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-55502481905625565552016-01-20T11:42:23.308-08:002016-01-20T11:42:23.308-08:00I think I'll have to seam - that stitch intimi...I think I'll have to seam - that stitch intimidates me - at first reading, the pattern almost scared me off - but then I took a deep breath- a sip of coffee - and started over. This is NOT going to be beyond me. I CAN do this. These patterns make me stretch my skills, and as a person who stays in her comfort zone as much as possible, it's a little scary - but I will LOVE showing this off!
