well, have you?! I am seriously considering it, but wonder if anyone has tips...I want to make my DH a vest (cardigan style) for next fall, but I knit 3 times faster than I purl. The thought of all that purling has me dreading it already! I know seams add structure, though, and I want to be happy with the end product.
: your knitting, then you can move on to attach sleeves or add a button band or whatever you are doing to finish your project. I've been reading some Elizabeth Zimmerman books and she was "into" it
No, but I would like to try it! I too have been reading a bit too much EZ lately and what she says about the mindless fun of knitting in the round without stopping really resonates with me
I'll probably knit a simple baby cardigan for my first time out. I don't think I could live with myself if I messed up a billion hours of knitting an adult sized garment
The sweater still sits in my FO's waiting for me to work up my nerve. I swear, if I would just cut it and add a button band, I'd actually wear it
.
BTW, make sure you are using a fiber that is mostly wool so your stitches will "stick" to eachother and not unravel the moment you cut!
