I am really enjoying this stitch. Really really enjoying it.
You can see which way my waffling went. I decided on the marl because I just don't want the stress of running out of yarn. According to all my reading on the internet, brioche and knit one below/ patent stitch/ fisherman's knit use about 30% more yarn than regular knitting. I have no idea if those numbers will be right for my own knitting and I just didn't want that worry. I also decided that I did not want to have a different colour rib on this sweater either. And here we are, marled stitches.
And I love it.
It took me a while to get going. I must have casted on and knit a few rows a dozen times, but eventually, I caught all the little things I missed.
And then I had a visit from a newly wheeled friend, so though I didn't knit as much as I planned, I had a great day.
