V Shawl Reviewed by Patricia Becker on 2009-07-21 ****
I am having a very difficult time keeping track of rows on this one! I have already ripped it out three or four times because of missing stitches caused by forgetting the increases and decreases.

Nor does the pattern specify the type of increase to make. I was knitting in the front and back loop until I looked at the picture again, and realized I should have been doing a yarn over.

Oct. 30, 2009

I am on the second half of my V Shawl. It is going much better. I can now connect the pattern stitches to what I want the shawl to do, and to look like. It makes sense that I increase on the end I want to extend, and decrease on the end I want to pull in. I had to put it in my own terms, even if only I understand those terms! I'll post a picture when it is complete.
