Yes I steek - but a little differently. Instead of making a one color stripe up the center steek stitch (you can't do that when your using variegated yarn) I put a purl stitch on either side of the center stitch. This makes and easy visual to follow when you machine sew the lines on either side and then a very easy visual to cut by! Works Great!
Pick up the stitches for the ribbing
And then it gets blocked!!
Still have to do the zipper - but I'm going to use a blocking wire to hold the knitted fabric straight while I sew it in. Then I'm finished. Yippee!! This is for the Nomad. She picked the
pattern and the yarn. Turned out great.
Now on to Christmas knitting - long ways to knit!
Look whats in my garden!!
