Doesn't it drive you crazy when
the directions tell you to weave two pieces together. I know how to do it,
but in the past always had to drag a book out to get the tapestry needle
sequence.
Thread a tapestry needle.
You now have a front and back needle in your holding hand, and a threaded
tapestry needle in your working hand.
Step 1:
Insert tapestry needle, as if to purl, in the first stitch of the front
needle, draw thread through.
Insert tapestry needle, as if to knit, in the first stitch of the back
needle, draw thread through.
Step 2:
Insert tapestry needle, as if to knit, in the first stitch of the front
needle, and at the same time remove stitch onto tapestry needle.
Insert tapestry needle, as if to purl, in the second stitch of the front
needle, and pull through, leaving stitch on working needle.
Step 3:
Insert tapestry needle, as if to purl, in the first stitch of the back
needle, and at the same time remove stitch onto tapestry needle.
Insert tapestry needle, as if to knit, in the second stitch of the back
needle, and pull through leaving stitch on working needle.
Repeat to Step 2 and 3 to the end.
Once I learned how to do the stitch, it was easy enough to remember that I
was working with a front needle and a back needle, always working with
pairs of stitches except on the first step, and that I was removing stitches
and pulling thread through...what I never could remember was how to insert
the needle.
It is so simple that I can't believe I never saw it while I was doing it.
P1,K1,*K1,P1,P1,K1 repeat from * to end.
I hope this makes as much sense to you as it does to me.
