Making a point

DSCN0405.jpg

I barely escaped the house, I had to buy yarn and borrow needles from GD. Phew. I am glad I went. It was very good. Part two of the fair isle class is picking up the strands on the knit and purl side. Here is a pic of the back.

I learned how to pick up the strand with MC on right hand/ CC color on left hand and the reverse. I now understand the top and bottom MC and CC thing. I also saw the MC & CC going the same way and opposite way. Something about pick up the strand every 2 stitches (not every stitches). Something about making sure to go for higher constrast, the colors play out differentlly once knitted...

I hope I remember it all.
