That Girl! KAL: Collar Progress

The first stitch of the project is a slip stitch purlwise. Instead of purling, simply transfer over that single stitch to your right needle.
For more directions, see the slip stitch page in Lion Brand Yarn’s Library of Knitting and Crochet.

In knitting this project, I’ve been using my Denise Interchangeable Knitting Needles. Since I’m starting out with just the collar right now, to keep things from tangling up, I’m using a smaller length of cord. I reviewed these in the first issue of CRAFT: 01, and they’ve been a knitting essential ever since. Ever since Nikol posted up her KAL variations, I’m now fancying the option of a mini tie for the sleeves. Summer Jacket KAL” /></a>

I’m currently working on the collar of my That Girl! I haven’t decided yet but am glad I can decide once I get to the sleeve area. To add on more lenth, I simply take off one end of needles, add an extender piece and add on another length of cord to extend it. To do this, simple insert your right knitting needle into the left needle as if you are going to purl the first stitch. Generally, if it isn’t noted in a pattern it should be assumed to be done purlwise so that the selvedge edge of the project will look neat. I don’t need to take my project off the needles! The cool thing about these needles is that I’ll be able to extend the circular area of the needle as I knit. I love the mauve color she chose.
