I just found this message.



I will have to open up my Barbara Walker book and search out that stitch.

The seed stitch or the cross-stitch?

The seed stitch is with multiple of uneven number stitches, knit 1 purl 1 
across, then on the next row you knit 1 purl 1, but it comes out not like 
ribbing but like little nubs because the knit stitches row by row are in 
vertical allignment, same with purl.

The other stitch pattern is in braille books available on BARD by Barbara G. 
Walker, Treasury Of Knit Patterns, and 2nd Treasury Of Knit Patterns, can't 
remember the exact one, but in one of those.

I picked that pattern, because it's an allover decorative one and thick, 
just right for a warm scarf. I think you could even get away with a size 11 
needles and still have a dense but lighter weight fabric.

Hello to All,



My name is Judy Jones, and now that I have retired I am getting back to 
enjoying knitting! I used to do a ton of it before having kids, but pretty 
much dropped it for years.



I actually saved most of my supplies, and they managed to make it with us 
through our moves over the years. I am only missing 3 needles hahaha, 
definitely replaceable.



I learned to knit as a youngster when attending a German school while living 
overseas, and did a lot of knitting up until having kids. I have knitted 
afghans, socks and sweaters, but I am starting out easy since getting back 
to it.



I am currently knitting a seed-stitch baby blanket for my new granddaughter 
in this wonderful purples-pinks sparkly yarn I found on Amazon with size 10 
round needle.

=UTF8&psc=1



I also just started a blue scarf for my daughter in the cross-stitch pattern 
with size 10 needles.



I'm looking forward to meeting others on the list and their craft.



Thank you all.



Judy
