KnitWithMe No 1 D

 

Now we've knit all the way up to the shoulder lines. You need to pick up the stitches on the knitting needles to make it all a bit easier and  and more clear. At least if your yarn is fluffy like mine.

You need to make the kitchener stitch to connect together the front and back shoulder lines. It is not so difficult. Just remember always follow the rule: the needle goes first from the front side through the stitch and then from the back side. Always, front and back. 

Always. No matter are you "up or down". Front and back.

Finally it all seems like knit together. Here you get 3 rows with the color 1 because you end up with it on both front and back sides.

And there is your neck line.

Pick up stitches on 4 knitting needles. I have 21 at front, 25 at back and on both sides 13. All together 72 stitches. Then knit 2, purl 2. Repeat at least 5 rounds. Depending on it what kind of collar you would like to have. Tiny, turtle of full double polo. It is up to your personal needs. I made 15 rounds. 

See you again by the armpits!
