ReplyDeleteNo I havent, never thought of it lol But I could :) If I do I will post the pattern here
DeleteHi Roxee - this is a beautiful pattern, however I am having trouble with it. I am a beginner so maybe I am doing something wrong. The pattern says CO 41, however row 7 - K4 P32 K4 is 40 stitches. On row 10 when I end the 4th repeat before doing the YO K2TOG K5 I have only 3 stitches left on tge needle. When you SL1 do you do it knitwise or purlwise?
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Kathy
Hi Kathy
DeleteI fixed it, sorry about that. It should work now. You sl1 purl wise. Thanks Roxee
How to do 4x,yo
ReplyDelete4x is 4 times, yo is yarn over
DeleteI'm also a beginner. The pattern say when you get to rows 20-55. REP 7-18, My question is on row 19 is a k4, p32, k4 row. And row 7 would be a k4, p32, k4. So if I'm reading this pattern right and like I said I'm a beginner. would both rows 19 & 20 be a k4, p32, k4? when looking at my cloth it has a ridge and from looking at the picture above I do not see that. Thanks for any help you can give me.
ReplyDeleteHi Evelyn, it should say 20-55 rep rows 8-18. I will fix that, thanks
DeleteThe pattern is all fixed :-)

DeleteYoure welcome, glad you like it :-)
DeleteHi Rosie... I love the looks of this pattern.. However I have a question. I'm a beginner so I'm not sure if its me or if I'm just not reading the pattern correctly. I have knitted down to through row 19 which is a k4, p32, k4 row. then for rows 20-55 it says to repeat row 7-18. However that would make row 19 & 20 a K4, P32, K4 row... Is this correct? I did that an my cloth seems to have a ridge caused by knitting two of the same row. Like I said I am a beginner so maybe I'm just reading the pattern correctly,. Please advise. Thank you
ReplyDeleteAt what row numbers did you change colors?
ReplyDeleteI think it was every 6 rows
DeleteThanks, that is working
DeleteYoure welcome
ReplyDeleteHi, not sure you received my last question. I lead an Adult Ed knitting class and I am going to show them the shell dishcloth I knit. (it turned out great!) Would it be alright if I shared the pattern with those who may wish to make it? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi, sorry i didnt see it, but yes you can share the pattern 😄
DeleteRoxee,
DeleteCan I have permission to knit your Shell Dishcloth for sale to for a friend to raise money to go into the mission field twice a year to teach women to sew.
Thank you,

Freda, yes you can :) Roxee
DeleteThanks so much.
DeleteYou're welcome
Deletewhat size needles do you use for this pattern?
ReplyDeleteThank you. Diane
Hi Diane, I use a size 5 or 6
DeleteOn row 8 how can you repeat 4x? If you knit 6 at the beginning and end and knit 5 each repeat that alone is 32 stitches. The YO SL1 K1 PSSO are 4 repeated 4x is 16. That’s a total of 48 stitches for row 8 when you only cast on 40. How does this work?
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn, thank you for this comment, I will look at the pattern closer and see where I messed up and update it if needed, Thanks Roxee
