yesterday I was trying to knit the top of the front piece of the project I’m working on.
The instructions, or as I call them destructions, were not written well at all.
I was flummoxed and had no idea how or where I was going to get help clarifying it.
So I’m finally got on chatGPT and asked it.
It went through it all with me and I kinda understood
But it just wouldn’t work
I’m decided to just do it my way
I cast off both pieces, and set about knitting the shoulders
I made them using short rows. It should work. We will see.
And I thought the cables would be the hard part.
For now I’ll leave it here to get it all nice and flat. The cowl neck is the last part now, and hopefully it will come together and fit.
I’v packed away all the paraphernalia to do with the knitting into the bag that sits by me chair and I’m back on the EPP.
Progress is slow but consistent
I’m trying to make it a square and I don’t know if it’s working. If I can’t I’ll just make it bigger and trim it off into a square or rectangle
For now I’ll just keep sewing
The sun has gone away today. It is windy. Hopefully it will dry the backyard enough for hubby to mow it.
He tried but it was way too wet over the weekend
Slow progress is annoying but it is still progress, fingers crossed we can get the back organised for the delivery of the new “ item”.
No I’m still not telling you until it’s here
You will just have to wait
I do like the colour and the stitch of your knit. Hope it all works out and we will soon see it finished
ReplyDeleteWell it does look correct, from other patterns I’ve seen.
DeleteYou know me. I’ll make it work if it kills me
I love the colour of your knitting. I guess we are looking at the back of it there- is that right. Shame when instruction use someone else's version of logic.... and don't make sense. I have a Shetland knitting pattern written using their names for stitches and processes and the whole thing needs translating before I make a second attempt at it.
ReplyDeleteYes it’s the back. Have you tried chat gbt. You can give them screenshots and they will translate it for you.
DeleteBe warned. Once you go down the rabbit hole you may not ever get out
I feel better now - trying to join a front and back in the round. I have done it before but my brain has fried and I can't for the life of me understand the instructions.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm ... above ground pool? New van? Granny flat? I know, I know, you'll tell us when you're ready but you can't blame us for guessing!!
Good guesses. But not quite correct.
DeleteI think my brain has been fried for so long there is no hope of resurrection
