After fiddling with it for the longest time, I figured out how to do it. Its a smart method that gives a smoothly-curved finish to the increases. Heres how to do it:<BR/><BR/>Knit to last 2 st from end of row. work back and forth this 2 sts for 5 times (K2, turn, P2, turn, K2, turn, P2, turn... etc) ending on a P2. Pick up 5 stitches along the 'strip' of extra bit knitted. <BR/><BR/>There. Increased. Hope that helped. I'm stuck for the longest time on the sleeves though. Not looking forward to the long ride ahead.

As for the stole, just pick up a hundred stitches a day (note down where you're at) and it will seem less painful. Your future projects are veru well chosen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11575998.post-1148520756251261512006-05-25T09:32:00.000+08:002006-05-25T09:32:00.000+08:00Yuvee, that blazer was a good choice, it's so eleg...Yuvee, that blazer was a good choice, it's so elegant. Hope you decipher the instructions for the front part soon. Sorry, don't know how to help on this problem.<BR/>Oh, i dislike grafting as well, and 640 sts sounds a lot work. But don't give up, you'll get there.Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07434571792493010097noreply@blogger.com
