    I couldn't see Jen pick up the diagonal stitches, the work was too near the edge of the frame?

    Thank you for the video. It was very helpful. I wonder if you can help me with 2 questions ....
    I just finished knitting a summer sleeveless sweater. I have sewn up one shoulder (as per the instructions on the pattern). I now have to pick up the stitches to knit just one row for a neckline.
    However, I did the top of the sweater in Seed Stitch, so I don't have the knit vees to work with.
    Should I just work along the bind-off row, going into each of those stitches?
    Also, your sweater is already sewn up on both shoulders. As mine is only one shoulder done, it will be lying open . My question is should I be working on the right side or turn it over to work on the wrong side? Or does that even matter?
    Thank you for any help you can give me. 😃

      Hi! I think you'd be good with working into the bind-off row (or maybe one row in from the bind-off) ... you can always take it apart if it looks weird and try again. (That's what I do!) I usually work seams with the right side facing me, but you can see what it looks like working from the inside too. Sometimes it takes a bit of trial and error - good luck!

    I knitted same raglan sweater and the neck edge is just the bind off row. It curls outwards. Any suggestion how to fix it?
    If I will knit a band of ribbing the opening will be too small. Any edge ideas for the neck??

    • @JenGeigleyKnits
      @JenGeigleyKnits  3 года назад

      Hi! You can try to wet block it (wet the fabric and then let it dry flat) but it may still curl if it doesn’t have edging … otherwise maybe you could rip back a few rows and then add a bit of ribbing?

    Hi Jen for the rib collar do I need to decrease it as I knit up? I’m only doing 6-7 rows.

    This would be very useful if you actually put the camera in the correct position.
