The trials and tribulations of knitting the alphabet blanket - so far

Recommended Posts

There I was last night knitting little triangles for the edging when I went to put it away for the night (got fed up of the ninja kitten divebombing me) and realised that I had forgotton to change to smaller needles:o Do you think it will matter?

Will it affect the way the little triangles are spaced out along the edge? If not, forget it! Even if it does affect the number of triangles it could work out OK over the multiples. The extra needles size may just mean one or two less triangles.

Its still the same number of stitches - they were live stitches IYKWIM! Might just make it slightly flarey:o I will finish this edge and make a decision whether to keep or undo it later:)

Maisie has been helping again:roll: I have done both the top and bottom edges and picked up for the left edge. I did decide to redo the triangles in the smaller needles.

It is lovely Lisa, it looks much nicer now that the points are all pointy.

I would love to keep it but DH says no more babies so I guess that is it!
