Question There are 8 rows to this pattern:
Established smocked Pat: row 1(RS)K(2),(p2,k2)4times, workrow 1 of smocked patt over 44 sts. row 2: work row 2 of smocked patt over 44 sts, (p2,k2) 4times, p2. SMOCKED PATTERN:multiple of 6: row 1, (rs) p2,*bring yarn to WS, sl 4 sts to RH needle, bring yarn to RS, sl same 4 sts back to LH needle, bring yarn to back wrapping around the 4sts, rep from * once more, sl 4 sts back to RH needle, p2. row 2 and all WS rows, K2,*p1,TBL,k2, rep from *across. row 3: p2,k1TBL,p2 rep from*across. row 5 p2,k1TBL, p2, rep from*of row 1 to last 5 sts, end p2,k1TBL, p2. row 7: rep row 3. row 8: rep row 2.
I have tried everything and nothing works. I would be so grateful if you can be of any help. Thank you. This whole pattern has to be reversed so that I can do the right panel.
Answer Hi Carol,
I don't understand from your question, if you have managed to knit the smocking at all.
The easiest way to knit smocking is by using a cable needle to hold slipped stitches to back of work.
I question having to reverse such a complicated pattern,and wonder if it's only the shapings that need to be reversed?
Anyway,please feel free to contact me if this doesn't help.
