NQR



Today I’ve attempted to put the other storage shelves together. 
I was doing really well until I came to the single vertical sticks. I just didn’t have the strength to screw them on 

I’m almost positive that’s where they go. I’m now just leaving it for when hubby gets home 




I then took out my cable knit. I found videos on what the special stitches were and how to do them 

The lady didn’t use any extra needles she just shuffled all the stitches around. 
I tried that and it looked like a hot mess 

I pull it all out and used the blue stitch holder to keep the spare stitches on until I need to knit them 



The main reason I think I just couldn’t get it to look correctly was the whole hold them back and hold them forward you have to do. 

I don’t think I was doing it correctly. Now I’m using the stitch holder as a cable needle it’s starting to look like a pattern 

Using the stitch holder is making it all much simpler 
Who knows I might even get a jumper made in the end 

I’ll keep plugging away and we will see 
I’ll keep you posted

  1. Good on you for sorting that out. I can knit a simple cable but have made many messes getting right that hold them back and hold them forward.

  2. That's the kind of complicated cable I leave to others! Yours looks very good.
