If your machine can use a twin needle, it will be invaluable for stretch fabrics, especially for hems. I had the same problem, make sure the stitch that joins each end when starting the other half of magic loop is kept tensioned tp prevent extra yarn being pulled into the wip. Very good and easy to use software is available to the amateur and has made the subject much more accessible. Since not all knits stretch the same amount, checking the actual stretch capacity is necessary before choosing the material for your pattern.
In fact, if you’re a novice making your first garment ever, stretchy is not the recommended way to begin. If you find your fabric is simply too stretchy or too lightweight to sew well, try placing a thin layer of tissue paper beneath it as you sew. I was able to knit faster and my stitches were more even as this eliminated the joining in the original technique.
Im not sure if I should be dividing the stitches differently than when I’m knitting the foot section. If I attempt to ignore it, it usually slips off anyway in the process of me turning my work 180 degrees. If adjacent edges are focussed at significantly different planes, the stitch will fail or an area of blurring will appear in the stitch. You have knit the first half of your cast-on stitches, and are ready to follow the repeating steps below.
Since I started with a k1,p1 cuff I didn’t realize, until I got to the ‘palm’ section, that my mitten was inside out. To knit small diameter tubes like socks, mittens, sweater sleeves, centre-out blanket squares, and for decreasing at the crown of hats you need to use another technique.
Use the variety of tools at your disposal to add captions, icons, special effects, and filters to any design. You are always rotating your work, drawing the back needle out, with the stitches you will be working next on the front needle. Modern DSLR cameras with Live View, computer control, and perhaps now mirrorless cameras such as the Sony NEX-5N, make stacking and stitching much easier.
