- Place the prepared balls of yarn on the floor.
- Fasten the yarn ends coming from the centre of
these balls in the yarn clip at right.
- Starting from the right, lay main yarn across all
needles as far as needle 4 at right of centre.
- Now lay first trimming colour across the 6 centre
needles.
- Lay main yarn across all remaining needles at left.
Note:
make sure that all latches are open and that
there is yarn in every needle head.
At left, hold the yarn you have placed over the needles
loosely in your hand, slightly to the front and about
level with the table. You will control the flow of the yarn
more easily if you let the yarns run between the
different fingers.
Note:
Never pull the yarn down vertically as this will
cause the knitting to ladder. Move the lock carefully
across the needles.
-Continue to knit, i.e. starting from the left lay the
yarns over the needles again according to the chart.
Where the different coloured yarns meet, cross the
yarn ends over to avoid holes at the sides of the
coloured section.
