No instructions to pull tighter etc and the cardi turned out fine. I would say as long as you have the right tension, knit as normal.Tusahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004464485084220069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18928997.post-1152110030580029632006-07-05T07:33:00.000-07:002006-07-05T07:33:00.000-07:00I remember reading that a lot of people were havin...I remember reading that a lot of people were having similar problems while using Calmer on the "Nothing But A T-Shirt" pattern as well. This was one of the reasons I subbed to a different yarn. I saw many swatches that looked like the stitches were quite wonky. Seems that's just the nature of Calmer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18928997.post-1152065220927891122006-07-04T19:07:00.000-07:002006-07-04T19:07:00.000-07:00try a different size needle, sometimes it does mag...try a different size needle, sometimes it does magic.Pixiepurlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055531276030386606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18928997.post-1152055174473026042006-07-04T16:19:00.000-07:002006-07-04T16:19:00.000-07:00Blocking does help some too.
