Yarn Bee Chrysalis in Bog Copper from Hobby Lobby |
Netted ribbon yarn is not my fiber of choice but I accepted the challenge of a friend and now a scarf of layered ruffles is falling from my needles. The work is tedious with each loop having to be spread open to hook it with the knitting needle to become the next stitch. Don't drop a stitch, picking them up is a challenge if not impossible. I started over, once, already. See if I do another one!

Hi sally!
I've knitted tonnes of these now - the yarn can be a pain to learn to knit with but after a while you will get the hang of it!
If you can, try to alternate the direction you turn your needles in at the end of a row to decrease the amount of twist that ends up in the ribbon.
I think the variegated version of this ribbon works better than the solid coloured version thoguh - I knit my neice one in all kinds of mad colours and she never takes it off!
Good luck,
Carly
