Whoo boy, tell me about escalations over nothing!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the shout out, my child. The knits are easy to fix, they are. (said in my best Yoda voice).<BR/><BR/>Alrischa is right, and you have 2 options for adding length. Both start with you sliding a needle (slightly smaller than the one you used) through ONE leg of each stitch across an entire row.<BR/><BR/>Once that's done you can either<BR/><BR/>a) cut a stitch in the row BELOW the needle. Unpick the yarn across that row, freeing up fake "live" stitches. unravel the now detatched bottom, use that yarn to reknit the bottom, adding as much length as you need.<BR/><BR/>or<BR/><BR/>b) slide another needle in 2 rows below. cut a stitch in the row between the two needles. unpick that row. You will now have live sts that you can work down to add your length, then because the existing bottom is on a needle with freed live sts, you can graft the two together.<BR/><BR/>Option 2 has less knitting, but a row of grafting. Your call.<BR/><BR/>p.s. love the new banner!Jennifer Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02962220178855071749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4981008103933564118.post-54621991939115934622008-08-27T09:37:00.000-04:002008-08-27T09:37:00.000-04:00ah!ah! fibonacci.. that's my finance bu add "-" be...ah!ah! fibonacci.. that's my finance bu add "-" before.

But no, I'm that rare breed, the non-analytical programmer. Just relax and have fun with your knitting!<BR/>Oh, and BTW, next time you make that lasagne, I'm so there. I love anything made with sausages (stop it...)<BR/>I hear you about the driving. I have to drive to work every day and school is back tomorrow here so the nervous breakdown can't be far behind. Still, at least my daughter will be suffering along with me so I'll have a moan buddy.<BR/>You get the coolest secret pal packages!Sinéadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03638944452534302340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4981008103933564118.post-26247188647362633052008-08-27T01:53:00.000-04:002008-08-27T01:53:00.000-04:00BTW, you can undo the bottom and add some length d...BTW, you can undo the bottom and add some length downwards, if you like. Then all you undo is the hemmy bit. Run a thread through all the stitches in one row, first, so you can put your needle in when you've undone the bottom, and then turn it upside down and knit. Did that for one of my old jumpers once.<BR/><BR/>Or add tassles! lol.Alrischahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02267747251542712085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4981008103933564118.post-34135552461370422412008-08-27T01:36:00.000-04:002008-08-27T01:36:00.000-04:00I can't even put a new ingredient in something wit...I can't even put a new ingredient in something without my hubby saying "can't you just stick to the recipe?" hehe.

So the challenges should be mitigated by equal rewards. Go Tara. I think you do a grand job.<BR/>(and I'm still distressed to think of all that lasagne going unappreciated just across the road - and me not knowing in time to help... :) )<BR/><BR/>Further thoughts re Fibonacci lifestyle. I think you do not need, at this time, to sign up for courses to become a personal trainer, or purchase a gym. Ok?<BR/><BR/>Lovely gifts from the secret pal - scarf looks fab.<BR/>KTEAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
