Have you ever heard of twitch? Well for those who haven't it is a live streaming site predominantly used by gamers. However, there is a thriving community of streamers who use the platform to show off their craft. I have always wanted to give it a go and so here's where I'm starting. every Thursday I'll be going live with a knit along, I'll be working through a series of charts and you are welcome to knit along with me.
You can come over to twitch and ask me any questions so I can help you and show you my process.
The theme of the current series will be STAR WARS. Below is the chart I will be following.
and here is my square pattern
Cast on 43 st.
Work 6 rows in st-st.
1st Row. K4 MC, knit next 39 sts as given for 1st row of chart, reading chart from right to left, k4 MC.
2nd Row. P4 MC, purl next 39 sts as given for 2nd row of chart, reading chart from left to right, p4 MC.
1st and 2nd rows set st-st at each side of 39 sts of chart. Keeping continuity of st-st and 39 sts of the chart, work from 3rd to 44th row of chart reading the chart from right to left for the odd-numbered rows and from left to right for the even-numbered rows.
Break all CCs and cont with MC only.
Using MC, work 6 more rows.
Cast off.
Hope to see you on my streams!
Did you know you could use this chart with any of the instarsia base patterns?
