If you used a pull cord (one row of another color after your cast on waste yarn), you could just pull it out and the waste yarn would fall off! It would save you all of that grief! The scarf is beautiful!
Nice job, Candice! I'm new to machine knitting - waiting for my gift to myself to arrive any day now - but am a lonnnnnng time traditional knitter. Thanks for this idea for a project that looks like you spent a huge number of hours when in reality, it didn't take long at all! I I'd like to share your RU-vid link for this project when I make some posts about my new KM adventures and would like your permission to do so.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! My machine is coming tomorrow and this is the first thing I plan to make. Great instructions! LOL about your dog! Mine does similar, except she is running and barking in her sleep…no telling what she is dreaming! 🤣
Oh so exciting! You will love it! I am so happy you like my video! This is my first one! There will be more to come :) Animals are so comical LOL life would be boring without them!
Made this today for my pa-in-law…came out very well. Thank you for the instructions 🥹☺️ when I finished the scarf, it had tight folds (due to tension, perhaps) which is however totally gone after steam ironing! Adding some moisture (steam) loosens the yarn.
Thanks for this easy to follow tutorial.not opened my Addi yet and hope to try this. Loved the dog snoring. Our cavalier used to sound like that. I have subscribed.
Thanks a lot for the tutorial! I was wondering if the drop stitch and braid method would also work on flat panels. Doing that not at the very end but a few stitches before may have the same effect? You'd lose the last few stitches as "seam allowance", though.
YES Indeed!! This works on panels, too, with one modification. I have done this braiding technique on knitted panels, but you need to drop the LAST 2 stitches (columns), or 3 depending on the thickness of your yarn. Then braid picking up the “turn around” yarn strands in groups of 3 or 4 at a time, or whatever number achieves the braid you like. Sort of like braid-joining the edges of hairpin lace strips. The braiding will show on BOTH sides of the finished product. 😃👍🏻👍🏻
