Also, a quick technique question. When I join for the yoke, I inted to split it down the front, because a) I like that kind of neck and b) I will need to work intarsia to keep the two colours, as they wouldn't work in the round. Anyway, my question is do I need to do any kind of edging/border now, or would crocheting around the neckline later (or something) be enough to keep it from curling? (the closest I have seen is Knitty's Saranac, and that has a zipper in after, which I was planning on avoiding)
knit a facing. that helps. if you crochet, you'll need a couple rows, it doesn't completely solve curling (sc, btw, not dc, lol!)
ReplyDeleteA boy knitter! *squeals*
ReplyDeleteJ/K. I'm very excited to meet you :D
That sweater is coming along!!
ReplyDeleteAs for the opebing, I think I would knit on a border later. Leave a bit of an opening (too late; I see you've already started on it) and then knit a small border around that opening and round the neck. I think that would look the best. And maybe even put in 3 buttonholes while you are at it as well. Don't have to use them, they are just there.
School's almost out... we expect to see a lot more work from you!! hehe
