Bind off in (K1, P1) pattern
Very cute...very different. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI'm new to knitting, how do you do the binding off in the K1,P1 pattern
ReplyDeleteI love this, i'm making one for my mom who is a fanatic about thanksgiving! thanks!
Beautiful!! Just in time for this year! 8-)
ReplyDeleteWhat do you do for rows 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, 61--straight stitch?

Hi everyone! Thanks for all the great comments...glad everyone is enjoying this pattern.
ReplyDeleteThe K1, P1 bind off is very similar to the standard bind off. K1 stitch, P1 stitch - there are 2 stitches on your right hand needle. Slip the K stitch over the P stitch - 1 stitch on your needle. K1 stitch. Slip the P stitch over the K stitch. Continue alternating with the K1 P1 until all your stitches have been bound off.
Hope this helps!
Oops, one more thing!
ReplyDeleteMaria, the rows you inquired about are part of the odd rows: (K1, P1) x2, P41, (K1, P1) x2.
Let me know if there are any more questions! =)

ReplyDeleteIs there any way you could post this pattern without the black background? I'd love to make it, but can't copy it this way.
Thanks!
Molly
Hi Molly ~ It's like you read my mind! =) We had our first snowfall of the season this week and our local radio station just started playing Christmas music so I was thinking it was time for a change....hope this helps!
