this bit:<br /><br /><strong>Ridge 1:</strong> K1, sl 1, pick up and K1 (this first picked up stitch should be from the ridge above the tail of yarn left from casting on), psso, turn and knit back.<br

I will post enough parts to get you roughly to the size of a dishcloth and after that, it's up to you if you'd like to go farther with it.</div><div align="center"><br />We will not be working with a lot of stitches, so short needles work really well, I'm actually using 2 short double pointed needles just because of their length, nothing to do with them being double pointed.</div><div align="center"><br />You will want to use a needle size that's best for the type of yarn you're going to use. So for example, I'm using Bernat Handicrafter Cotton with size 4.00 mm needles. If you are wanting to use something like sock yarn, you will want to use smaller needles, and if you are going to use a bulkier yarn, you will want to use larger needles.</div><div align="center"><br />As for the colour, that's totally up to you guys! I think a variegated would look pretty as well as a self-striping yarn. The good thing about this pattern is that you can change colours whenever you want, so if you've got lots of scraps leftover that would be good too. </div><div align="center"><br />I will be posting this kal a little different from past ones. Instead of posting daily rows, I will be breaking the pattern up into parts and I will be giving you a couple of days to complete each part.</div><div align="center"><br />I chose to use this pattern for our next kal because it is something very unique, creative, versatile, and a wee bit of a challenge. Don't let the challenging part discourage you from trying it out though... With the help of the designer's easy-to-understand instructions, it'll be a breeze!</div><div align="center"><br />As always, any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me at <a href="mailto:ramavasc@yahoo.com">ramavasc@yahoo.com</a></div><div align="center"><br />Take care and thanks for knitting along with us!</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Hugs,</strong></div><div align="center"><strong>Rachel</strong></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Where you can find me:</strong></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Follow Me On Twitter:</strong></div><div align="center"><a href="https://twitter.com/KnitsByRachel"><strong>https://twitter.com/KnitsByRachel</strong></a></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Knits by Rachel:</strong></div><div align="center"><a href="http://www.knitsbyrachel.com/"><strong>http://www.knitsbyrachel.com/</strong></a></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Rachel's Knitting Corner:</strong></div><div align="center"><a href="http://rachelsknittingcorner.blogspot.com/"><strong>http://rachelsknittingcorner.blogspot.com/</strong></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34529414-2233924525293923019?l=rachelsknittingcorner.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14192672661417877521noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34529414.post-70091089691630490492010-10-26T08:30:00.001-04:002010-10-26T08:32:17.603-04:00<div align="center"><strong>Rachel's Knitting Room ~ Tuesday, October 26, 2010<br />Marilyn's Cryptic Message KAL</strong></div><div align="center"><a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rachels_Knitting_Room/message/61710">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rachels_Knitting_Room/message/61710</a><br /><strong>Ocotber 2010 KAL ~ Day 9 ~ Rows 49 to 54</strong></div><br /><strong>Today's Instructions:</strong><br /><strong>---------------------------------------</strong><br /><br /><strong>Row 49</strong> seed st. across row<br /><br /><strong>Row 50</strong> seed st. across row<br /><br /><strong>Row 51</strong> seed st. across row<br /><br /><strong>Row 52</strong> seed st. across row<br /><br /><strong>Row 53</strong> seed st. across row<br /><br />Row 54 Cast off….<br /><br /><strong>©Copy Right Protected Marilyn Wallace 2010 </strong><a href="http://marilynsknit/"><strong>http://marilynsknit</strong></a><strong> tingheavenoneart h.blogspot. com/ (KNIT YOUR NAME)</strong><br /><br /><strong>Check out on my free blog how I do my blocking…..

It will begin on <strong>Monday, October 18th!</strong></div><div align="center"><br />This mystery dishcloth Knit Along has been designed by our Group Moderator, Marilyn Wallace with a<strong> Halloween theme</strong> to it! This will be one of Marilyn's <strong>Cryptic Message KALS</strong>! She has designed this dishcloth with a cryptic message in it that we have to try and figure out. There will be a little contest to go along with it as well! Naturally Marilyn and I will be excluded from this contest as the group owner and moderator, but everyone else is more than welcome to join along in the guessing fun!</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>*</strong> You must be a member of <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rachels_Knitting_Room/"><strong>Rachel's Knitting Room Yahoo Group</strong> </a>to be eligible to win the prize give away... <strong>Enjoy the Cryptic Message KAL &amp; please feel free to join Rachel's group to be eligible for the prize :)</strong></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>*</strong> There will be absolutely <strong>NO GUESSING ON THE GROUP</strong>...all guesses will have to be done privately by emailing Marilyn at <a href="mailto:marilynw@rogers.com">marilynw@rogers.com</a></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>*</strong> There <strong>CAN NOT BE ANY POSTING OF PICTURES</strong> before the contest is over... this is a guessing contest and it will be spoiled if pictures are posted prior to Marilyn announcing the winner! AFTER the contest is over and the winner is announced, then please feel free to post your finished pics... thanks so much for understanding :)</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>*</strong> Submissions will ONLY be accepted AFTER the final rows of the kal have been posted.</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>*</strong> PLEASE put, "Cryptic Message Theme KAL Contest" in the subject line when submitting your answer to Marilyn.</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>*</strong> Only 1 guess per person will be allowed for this contest.</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>*</strong> It's not a race to see who guesses correctly first, as I have picked a random number without Marilyn knowing.</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>*</strong> Marilyn has graciously offered to send the winner of this contest a little prize. The Prize will be knitting related &amp; your snail mail needs to be submitted to Marilyn privately upon notification of the winner within a week or another winner will have to be chosen.</div><div align="center"><br />For this pattern, Marilyn suggests size 4 mm short, circular needles (knit straight on them) or US#6...please feel free to use your straights if you do not have any circs...Marilyn always suggests knitting straight with your circular needles which is a really good tip so you never drop the other needle and also it's makes for a more compact project.</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Please Note:</strong> If you are a loose knitter, I would strongly suggest a smaller needle size for you so your stitches really "POP" out better...especially if you are knitting letters!</div><div align="center"><br />You will all need 1 ball cotton yarn for a Dish Cloth OR 1 ball CottonTots for a soft, Spa Cloth. Any colour would work well, but it is strongly suggested to use a <strong>SOLID</strong> colour for the pattern to show up well.</div><div align="center"><br />Also, a quick little note to all our <strong>"lefties"</strong> in the group...this cloth will have lettering on it so you might want to read your pattern rows from right to left...just to let you know :o)</div><div align="center"><br />Hugs and Good Luck,</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">Rachel</div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Wondering how to join Rachel's Knitting Room Group? </strong></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Simply follow the link below &amp; click the "Join" button :)</strong></div><div align="center"><br /><a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rachels_Knitting_Room/"><strong>http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rachels_Knitting_Room/</strong></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34529414-7452308084825592566?l=rachelsknittingcorner.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14192672661417877521noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34529414.post-1442825802694158772010-09-20T08:23:00.003-04:002010-09-20T08:44:39.269-04:00<div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TJdSUBHEniI/AAAAAAAADmc/staUxAXVPdc/s1600/September+2010+KAL+Day+1.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5518970372214791714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 337px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TJdSUBHEniI/AAAAAAAADmc/staUxAXVPdc/s400/September+2010+KAL+Day+1.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>September 2010 Mystery Dishcloth Knit Along</strong></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Monday, September 20, 2010 ~ Day 1 ~ Rows 1 to 6</strong></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>---------------------------------------------------</strong></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Link to this pattern in Ravelry:</strong></div><div align="center"><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/rachels-mystery-dishcloth-knit-along--september-2010">http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/rachels-mystery-dishcloth-knit-along--september-2010</a></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>Daily Progress Pics:</strong></div><div align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/15226377@N07/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/15226377@N07/</a></div><div align="center"><br /><strong>---------------------------------------------------</strong></div><div align="left"><br /><strong>Today's Instructoins:</strong></div><div align="left"><strong>--------------------------------</strong></div><div align="left"><br /><strong>Yarn Requirements:</strong></div><div align="left">Worsted weight yarn.</div><div align="left"><br /><strong>Materials:</strong></div><div align="left">4.5 mm.

I test knit it with a size 3.5 mm circular needle and it worked out just fine, but you WILL have to use a circular needle or a long double pointed needle as we will be sliding our stitches from one end to the other. We will NOT be knitting in the round, this pattern will be worked as a flat piece.<br /><br />Stitch markers<br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;">~ ~ ~ ~ ~</span></strong><br /><br /><strong>Suggested Colours For You:</strong><br /><br />You will want to use two highly contrasting colours for best results!

He's a gorgeouse creature. He's really a handsome fella. I do believe he's a bachelor. So if you know of any available lady hawks out there, please do spread the word that Duke is single and obviously looking. </div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffffff;">.<br /></span><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TD9PsGceI0I/AAAAAAAADiA/tCyctVtfbnI/s1600/Duke+2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494197689478161218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 304px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TD9PsGceI0I/AAAAAAAADiA/tCyctVtfbnI/s400/Duke+2.JPG" border="0" /></a>If you click on the photos of the very dashing Duke, you will get a much better look at him. His eyes are quite haunting. He has spent the last couple of weeks in our yard calling out. I suppose he's searching for a mate. If that's what he's doing, he's not having much luck though. I kind of feel sorry for him. He seems to have such a lonely existence, just sitting there, day after day calling out but no one ever answers.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TD9Oht89eSI/AAAAAAAADh4/n8b0YoABV2c/s1600/Duke+3.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494196411593226530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 277px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TD9Oht89eSI/AAAAAAAADh4/n8b0YoABV2c/s400/Duke+3.JPG" border="0" /></a> So I go outside and keep him company sometimes. I talk to him too sometimes. I figure it beats talking to myself which I do most of the time. I hope I'm not turning into some kind of a crazy bird lady! Gosh! Perhaps I've been spending too much time in the sun, or not getting out enough... I mean, my gosh, I'm starting to talk to the birds out here! I think I need help. Serious help. Poor Duke is probably looking down at me from that branch thinking I'm some kind of nut job cuz I'm talking to him!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TD9OZtjnDkI/AAAAAAAADhw/WvXxacCbT3Y/s1600/Duke+4.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494196274047946306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 269px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TD9OZtjnDkI/AAAAAAAADhw/WvXxacCbT3Y/s400/Duke+4.JPG" border="0" /></a> Then again, perhaps he actually understands me and he's talking back to me. Maybe he's happy that someone actually notices him finally. Yeah, I'm gonna go with that theory...sounds much more comforting than becoming some kind of nutty lady talking to the wildlife out here!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TD9OQ-r64WI/AAAAAAAADho/I9yGL3_bNXI/s1600/Duke+5.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494196124027380066" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 290px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/TD9OQ-r64WI/AAAAAAAADho/I9yGL3_bNXI/s400/Duke+5.JPG" border="0" /></a> Anyway, I hope you enjoyed meeting Duke.

I say cotton piece because these blocking instructions will work well for any cotton dishcloth, placemat or towel with a picture on it.</div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffffff;">.</span></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><strong>1)</strong> Fold the bath towel in half and then in half again so you have a nice cushy bottom. The reason for the folded bath towel is so that you have a thick base so that when you push the background stitches of your Dishcloth down, it kind of makes the picture or letter stitches of your piece embossed or puffed up.<br /><span style="color:#ffffff;">.</span></div><div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2uzDjBWI/AAAAAAAADdE/arFf0SEBC80/s1600/1.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464896850444354914" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 239px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2uzDjBWI/AAAAAAAADdE/arFf0SEBC80/s320/1.JPG" border="0" /></a><strong>2)</strong> Lay your cotton piece down on top of the folded bath towel.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2nhEki_I/AAAAAAAADc8/-qevkRb-DiM/s1600/2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464896725357726706" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 254px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2nhEki_I/AAAAAAAADc8/-qevkRb-DiM/s320/2.JPG" border="0" /></a><strong>3)</strong> Now flip the piece over and give the back a good spray.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2gA1zJZI/AAAAAAAADc0/FACIYuA_4FA/s1600/3.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464896596446750098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 242px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2gA1zJZI/AAAAAAAADc0/FACIYuA_4FA/s320/3.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2ZlXdtsI/AAAAAAAADcs/h33gOicg6Os/s1600/4.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464896485992543938" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 253px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2ZlXdtsI/AAAAAAAADcs/h33gOicg6Os/s320/4.JPG" border="0" /></a><strong>4)</strong> Turn it over and do the same to the front of your piece.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2R2u_owI/AAAAAAAADck/_UaV8fpHiTU/s1600/5.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464896353215685378" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 238px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2R2u_owI/AAAAAAAADck/_UaV8fpHiTU/s320/5.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2GbbyTzI/AAAAAAAADcc/dt7LZobJQ5k/s1600/6.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464896156908801842" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 264px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c2GbbyTzI/AAAAAAAADcc/dt7LZobJQ5k/s320/6.JPG" border="0" /></a><strong> 5)</strong> Now give a little tug all around to try and get your piece all nice and straight around the edges. Sometimes I find a ruler works as a good straight edge when doing this.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c1_MgbrmI/AAAAAAAADcU/etmRjEAgFq4/s1600/7.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464896032642674274" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 236px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9c1_MgbrmI/AAAAAAAADcU/etmRjEAgFq4/s320/7.JPG" border="0" /></a><strong> 6)</strong> Okay, now I usually work from the inside of my piece, out.

The difference is all in the drying of your piece. That's when you'll notice all your hard work!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9cuR_RJxVI/AAAAAAAADVE/xOmPY1WLIjg/s1600/65.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464887559413417298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 245px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BthgFIp0v40/S9cuR_RJxVI/AAAAAAAADVE/xOmPY1WLIjg/s320/65.JPG" border="0" /></a><strong>32)</strong> Now you're going to want to very gently pick up your blocked piece and lay it on your cooling rack. I choose to use a cooling rack so everything dries evenly. If you're in a real hurry for it to dry, you can also stick a fan in front of it... the moving air will dry it in no time at all!<br /><br /><div><a
