Thank you yes, I’ve left it alone for a few days and tried again and it worked thank you
I’m really struggling with this pattern I have tried the 1st row of the pattern 6 times now and I always end up with one stitch left over at the end of the row, are the number of stitches correct for the pattern? I cast on 123 stitches,
Hello Annette! I’ve reached out to the designer for advice and she or I will reply as soon as possible. Thanks! – Nicola, Editor
Hello! The pattern is a multiple of 16 + 27
The first row (of the lace panel) should read:
Row 1 (RS): (P1, k1) twice, p1, k4, yo, ssk, k1, yo, sk2p, *yo, (k1, k2tog, yo) twice, k1, (yo, ssk, k1) twice, yo, sk2p; repeat from * to last 12sts, yo, k1, k2tog, yo, k4, p1, (k1, p1) twice.
Hope this makes sense! – Nicola, Editor
