Well here I am going on 62 got my first computer at 52 and for the first time "Thanks to You" I am learning so many new stitches,you are such a blessing. Thank you so very much for all you have taught me. I love knitting even more now. If Hugs could fly I am sending you loads of them. Yes still more to learn from you. Once again I thank you. <br /> Always Juliet {Yes this is my real name} Juliethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03543962512550583075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328552089870108597.post-36125252615652223092012-06-04T22:43:31.111-04:002012-06-04T22:43:31.111-04:00Totally makes sense now :) Thank you.

To me, being reversible is in the eye of the knitter. I find a lot of "wrong" sides of fabric just as nice as the "right" side, and don't mind which side is visible. But, even truly reversible stitches - like garter, 2x2 ribbing, etc., where they look exactly the same on either side of the fabric, will still need to be worked differently on every other round. For example, when you work garter stitch flat, you knit every row. In the round, if you knit every round, you will get stockinette stitch. So to get garter stitch in the round, you must knit a round (the right side), then purl a round (the wrong side). Stockinette stitch flat is knit a row (the right side) and purl a row (the wrong side). For stockinette in the round, you just knit every round. That is why a lot of knitters who hate to purl love knitting in the round for stockinette because it is just knitting forever until you are done. Hope this helps. If you are like me and need to see the process before it makes sense, try garter stitch or stockinette in the round, and you will see that you must do the opposite of you would do when knitting flat for the "wrong" sides.Sapphires-N-Purlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00346927451040822020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328552089870108597.post-14944264494234943662012-06-04T15:28:52.193-04:002012-06-04T15:28:52.193-04:00I was wondering...

If the pattern doesn't indicate that there is a right/wrong side of the work, does that mean the work is reversible and I don't have to reverse and backwards any rows? I just can just work it outright, still eliminating the extra border stitches?CarlaNicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05459304311835714250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328552089870108597.post-83021541235936915392012-03-01T02:06:01.004-05:002012-03-01T02:06:01.004-05:00Thanks so much for sharing this!

You've made it really easy to understand and the sample pattern conversions are great! There are a few flat patterns I would love to try this with!
