I have washed my Undercurrent twice now, and though the increases are very open (my bad increase method) and worried me greatly before wearing, there is absolutely no problem supporting the fabric. And if I may say, there is a whole lot of sweater weight below it, much more than average, think large mans sweater by weight. I am completely sold on this method, though I know it won't ever be the only thing I use. Wouldn't it be sad to only knit one way?

Then, once the shoulder "seam" is complete - you cold crochet a line along the seam on the underside. This will give it stability and prevent any stretch. You could use the same yarn, or possibly even a thin cotton or other non-stretchy fibre.<br />Just a thought.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15751829480377882527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1057599348603064313.post-74496883160928435532013-02-19T10:48:24.725-05:002013-02-19T10:48:24.725-05:00My head is spinning at this prospect.

I'll have to re-read it later!<br /><br />I am able to understand you've put the two systems together though and that I can readily recognize as ingenious! I especially love the Suz-Ann name!<br /><br />Can't wait to see this progress!Sel and Poivrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05675373771037014713noreply@blogger.com
