Question Hi there,I want to know how do I get neat sides on my garment when knitting please. The left side of my work always seems looser and seems longer than the right.
Can you help me.
Many thanks
Rose Devane Ireland.
Answer When you knit the edge stitches just put the tip of the needle into the stitch.Don't insert the needle the whole way. When you wrap with your yarn it will make a smaller stitch.
This is a very common problem because the stitch is only being pulled from one adjacent stitch not on both sides like all the other stitches.
