Haelus NovakIs it normal when #knitting with #circulars that after a begin a new row, I have to flip my whole blanket in toward the center to get rid of a twist on the left side of the #blanket? 🤔 Off to Google, I suppose! 😅
AKK_1967@HaelusNovak sounds like maybe you got things twisted before you connected in the round. Or sometimes I've managed to do that in the 2nd round when things are still loose at the join. If that's what it is, it's usually a case of having to start over. Post a pic.
Oops, I may have been misleading. It's not knit together in a circle (like a sock), so I can flip it all the right way after starting each new row. Sorry about that. 🤔
I'll try to provide a real picture eventually-- I'm off to catch a plane today and the project is at home. 🫤
I've attached an attempted mobile paint drawing. I've no stylus or art skills, so forgive me if this is an unintelligible mess of lines. The grey is an outline of the blanket edge, the orange is the circular knitting needles, the red points to the place where the blanket becomes twisted, and the blue demonstrates how I have to pull the "oldest" edge of the blanket INTO the circular needles loop to correct the weird twist shown in red.
@AKK_1967 I guess I forgot the part of the blanket on the right needle, so~~
Pi Fisher@HaelusNovak @AKK_1967 this seems like a pretty normal problem to me. You could try to address it before you start the row, but hopefully it's not a huge annoyance?
@HaelusNovak Ah, I see. Sort of. I think that just may be part of the annoyance of knitting a large object.
