Helpful hints 3rd edition

#1. Before beginning a pattern, read the entire pattern from beginning to end. If you plan to make changes mark the changes now throughout. Of course this is on a photocopy and not the original.

#2. When following tricky pattern stitches or charts, use a sticky note to underscore the line you are knitting.This is even easier if you have slipped the pattern copy into a page protector sleeve. You may purchase these clear plastic sleeves at your local office supply.

#3. Always slip stitches purlwise unless otherwise noted.

#4. Keep shout wipes in your purse and knitting bag. Especially if you like to knosh and knit. What a great title for a book...
