    ¡Hola ! How wonderful and stunning sweater Wally is knitting ! I love the colour and the pattern. I'm lookig forward to seeing it completely finished. All the projects are amazing. For my knitting, I use needles, yarn and pencil and paper to write down everything ! So many times, after blocking the swatch, I didn't remember the needles size ! This was another great meeting. I will be waiting for the next one. 🤗

    I remember Ron's handy swatch idea 🙂 and seems I also remember the L shaped swatch being mentioned or I did read it on the blog or something. 🧐
    Like Sumner I have bought yarn on a cone , there is clear difference before and after, it is a must measure before and after in particular with those.
    With my yoke I stayed with the idea of 3rds which gave me visual markers to reference but free styled my increases between them , increases never lined up , making them as invisible as I could to fool the eye .
    Ron with his pile of Phranckos can show an example of any technique, on the spot, for new members , just mention what part of the sweater and neckline , he has an example ! ⭐
    EXACTLY FRANK !! While listening I was sure someone would mention mixing . Like Judith, I always think of needle sizes in MM (we had an exchange about how many people actually have calipers last week)
    Knitting from RIGHT to LEFT A U.S. SIZE 7 needle / 4.5 MM would be,
    PURL , K, K, PURL K, K, K, YO, K2 tog , YO, K2tog , YO, K2tog , YO , K2tog, K to end . Then, when read LEFT to RIGHT 4 YO holes = 4 2 PURL Bumps (worth .25 each) = .5

      Excellent idea to mark the half mm sizes.

    Frank, isn't the "after" blocking measurement the one that counts ? Because we're going to wash our garments . Thx

    what about sweaters knit in the round? Do you use this same method?
