Thank you so much for your quick reply....Hi Robin,<br /><br />Thank you so much for your quick reply. And yes, you have been most helpful. Even though I know how hard it is to understand something when you do not have the item in front of you. You did great and I will continue on with the hat.<br /><br />Thanks again......Joanne :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3829528098444127127.post-15427964007098297842012-07-23T14:37:14.613-04:002012-07-23T14:37:14.613-04:00Joanne,
I think what you are saying is right........Joanne,<br /><br />I think what you are saying is right......it's hard to visualize it without actually doing it. But, yes, you are bringing the new stitch through the 3 strands and then dropping them..........<br /><br />Hope that helps. <br /><br />THANK YOU! :)Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08066688390794656282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3829528098444127127.post-61173062661209891322012-07-23T14:27:05.375-04:002012-07-23T14:27:05.375-04:00Hi, I just came across your great "Love Bumps...Hi, I just came across your great "Love Bumps Hat". This is really so cute. I do have one question?? You gather the three loops, on the back side, with your right needle, then knit the next stitch on your left hand needle and pull that stitch through the three strands. Right? So, I am guessing, since there is very little room after that is done, in order to pull the new stitch through the three strands, I will need to cross the three strands, on the right needle, over the new stitch, also on the right needle, and then drop the strands??? Kind of like a three stitch bind off. Then, continue on. Is this correct? I hope this makes sense to you. Please tell me this will work!!! :-)<br />Thanks so much for your time......love you patterns!!<br />JoanneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3829528098444127127.post-26939879611568931392012-07-15T10:15:10.640-04:002012-07-15T10:15:10.640-04:00Sorry - this hat is knit on size 10's.

I adore the larger needles...have made lots of things like bags and water bottle holders and some poncho starts using them...and I plan on using the size 50 needles to do a rapid afghan...lol....assuming my arthrits won't kill me using such large needles and so many strands of yarn at one time...anyway, I love all of the different, unusual and new, to me, stitches you have on your hats. Keep up the good work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
