Okay, so I've been having a grand time dying yarn with kool-aid! Here's a picture of my latest. I used orange, cherry and berry blue for this one.
I made a sheepy sack with matching LTK pilot hat.
I've made another sheepy sack with a batch of yarn I dyed using the blue lemonade, lemonade and black cherry kool-aid. I decided to make a hybrid rib with the remaining yarn- I made one before but it was too small for a baby of mine, so I gave it to my daughter for her dolls ( it was really an experiment any way using scraps).
So all is going great, I've got the short rows figured out and for the small size I end up inserting two short rows in the back. But when I get to the part where you knit and bind off I end up with only 30 in the back and 34 stitches in front. There's suppose to be 34 each... hmmmm???? I'm wondering are these the stitches I'm losing when I knit go back and knit together my wrapped stitch? That would be four stitches for two short rows.
But wouldn't the pattern take that into account? What am I doing wrong?
