I actually wish I had only used a ball and a half, rather than the entire 2 balls! (Because I'm short.)Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11189513869927434997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5942397277086320916.post-49656549867330388482011-07-18T06:08:29.372-05:002011-07-18T06:08:29.372-05:00Thank you!

Solved :) You were right - I was just missing the final YO before the knit 5. <br /><br />Can you believe that I have attempted this scarf so many times over the past year that I've gone through around half a ball of wool! Now I don't think I'll have enough and I'm not betting on the yarn shop where I bought it having any more from the same dye lot...<br /><br />Thanks again - you're a gem.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12294475550608286917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5942397277086320916.post-76350998607588821192011-07-17T08:32:01.869-05:002011-07-17T08:32:01.869-05:00Hi Jessica!

When I do it, I count like this: cast on one stitch, then immediately bind it off again, then knit four.<br /><br />The other place I tended to make mistakes if I wasn't paying attention is at the end of the row. After the first 5 edge stitches, you do P2tog, YO all the way across to the last 5 stitches and then knit those. I tended to forget to do that last YO before the knit 5 - maybe that is where you are losing your stitch too?<br /><br />Hope that helps!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11189513869927434997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5942397277086320916.post-86258216645909855832011-07-17T08:09:14.546-05:002011-07-17T08:09:14.546-05:00Hi there :) I'm so happy to have found your bl...Hi there :) I'm so happy to have found your blog!<br /><br />I'm attempting to knit the Adore scarf at the moment but I just can't seem to get it right. Maybe you can help? It looks so simple but i just can't figure out where I am going wrong...<br /><br />I am fine to cast on and do the decrease for every second stitch so there are 50 stitches. Row 2 is where it becomes tricky. No matter what I do, I end up decreasing a stitch for every row thereafter. Do you have any tips? I'd love some help!<br /><br />Apart from the scarf, your nail polish is so sweet :)<br /><br />xJessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12294475550608286917noreply@blogger.com
