In Reply to: switching from two-tail to knit stitch. posted by Amy on March 09, 19102 at 13:08:55:
: I am confused and I don't know what forum to post this in! *grin* I learned the two-tail practically instantly. It seemed VERY easy and it all looked the way it was supposed to... until I went to do the knit stitch.
: Let me also say that I had previously learned the knit stitch with a single cast on and was really good at it.
: My problem: every time I followed the directions it didn't make the stitch, it merely undid my casting on stitch. What was I doing wrong??? I kept going over and over it and couldn't see what I was doing wrong.
PERHAPS you just think it is undoing the cast-on stitch. On that first stitch that you knit it is very loose. Once you have knit it, you need to pull on it to tighten it up. If you will watch the beginner class videos again on this site, she mentions tightening up that first stitch before going on to the second one. Hope this helps.
