Thank so much for your quick reply, I'm right in the middle and was thinking that it would be very frustrating to have to put it in a zip-top bag to both smother and banish it for a time. Vengeful knitter that I am!<BR/><BR/>I wish you the best, thanks again,<BR/>ZoeZoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01102170739646728676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20712241.post-45164807357458123532007-11-29T08:06:00.000-05:002007-11-29T08:06:00.000-05:00Hi Zoe!I'll gladly explain the "twist" for you, or...Hi Zoe!<BR/><BR/>I'll gladly explain the "twist" for you, or at least I'll try. :) Her instructions can be a bit sparse to say the least. Annie's amazing, but she assumes that everyone knows what she's talking about.<BR/><BR/>All it is is a mini cable. When you get to the part that says "twist left k st over right p st" You make your p st, your k st, then while gently pinching/holding the two take your needle out of both. Next, reverse the order of where the stitches are. Make sure that the k st is on top.<BR/><BR/>Keep an eye on these directions. sometimes they are reversed (left p over right k) and it'll totally throw you for a loop. <BR/><BR/>You might want to join the KAL on Yahoo groups. It's pretty helpful as well.<BR/><BR/>And don't worry, I frogged 5 times before I finally figured out what I was doing. Oh, and thanks so much for the comments on my blog!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Hope this helps!<BR/><BR/>SheaSheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11105205358986222684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20712241.post-65837821414953864422007-11-29T02:13:00.000-05:002007-11-29T02:13:00.000-05:00Your work on the corset is wonderful!

I'm wondering if you'll share your expertise briefly - I'm a reasonably advanced knitter but I've never come across a pattern that calls for a "twist" ie: in Chart D, Row 1 of the corset, it reads 'twist left k st over right p st'. Can you explain this? I'd be really grateful because if I frog this piece once more... sigh!<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much!<BR/>Zoe<BR/>zoebis@gmail.com<BR/>zoebis on RavelryZoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01102170739646728676noreply@blogger.com
