[Nfb-krafters-korner] another looming question please help me

[Blindhands at aol.com]

To add to the confusion that I might have created.  Let me give this  just 
another few words.  I e wrap twice around..  I start taking off  beginning 
with the first peg to the left of the anchor.  I take off going  in a counter 
clockwise moving to the right and continuing around counter  clockwise.  [I 
am thinking that will lock that last e wrap down with the  first stich.  
Thenm moving to the right pulling stitches up and over in a  counter clockwise 
motion.  
 
I have done exactly this trying going clockwise, too starting from the  
beginning and I still get this ladder type row going from the bottom row upward 
 that is loose and not tight like all the other stitches.

Hi!

I don't know if I understand precisely what you are  doing, but I
think, not sure here, you are wrapping in one direction and  then
knitting off in the opposite direction and never doing anything  to
connect your last peg and your first peg? Maybe?

I use to tie a  slip knot onto my anchor peg and I had some crazy funky
things happen to my  pieces--I cannot even begin to explain in an
email. I now put my slip knot  on peg one and knit off when the time
comes. Try wrapping and knitting in  the same direction.
