I’m struggling with this CocoKnits shoulder construction method. It’s driving me cocoknits. She has a YouTube channel with some great videos and I thought I had it figured out. But (commence knitspeak) I had the right shoulder turned around and the neck edging was on the seam side after I joined it to the collar. I thought, no big deal, I’ll just rip back and knit it forward again. But that makes the knitting go in the wrong direction, which ordinarily wouldn’t matter, except when you have a S1K1 edging that you cannot match in that direction. So I’ve frogged all of the shoulder piece and will reknit. At least I know what I’m doing now. I’m going to eat some breakfast and try again.

So here’s a pic of my easy knitting. Isn’t it pretty?
I feel your pain.

How frustrating! I’m glad you’re not talking about it becoming a UFO, though. Persistence pays off!

You’ve had your practice and now you’ll get it:) I can’t tell you how many of my projects require 2, 3 or 4 starts before I get the rhythm.

Pretty red yarn! Hopefully the shoulder will behave itself now you’ve had a practice.

It’s so simple but still interesting to knit and looks nice to wear.
