NIFTY TRICK!
For every repeat on this pattern I place a marker. If the phone ring...I don't loose my place, no matter what.
While I am working on this project, I will show you how nifty and important the use of markers can be. I have many tools that I use when I knit to help me keep track of exactly where I am in a pattern and inexpensive little plastic rings are just the ticket. Above is an example of where I am increasing stitches to create a raglan style shoulder and sleeve. I know to increase two stitches before and two after each marker. This little baby cardigan (which I hope to enter in the Sonoma County Fair!) has a lace skirt. I will demonstrate when I get to that point on how I use LOTS of markers when doing lace work.
