I don't know the names of stitches either; this was the first one I learnt, so it's what I used....<br /><br />Yeah, I do that too - separating the threads, wetting and rubbing, but I still finds it annoying, so I rather use very long strands of yarn :)Sarah Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04095151411363232281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2110986536825447894.post-41168516345047528372011-01-05T20:55:49.946+01:002011-01-05T20:55:49.946+01:00Nice socks!

I don't know many names of stitches but perhaps you can describe it?<br /><br />About using a very very long thread - I wouldn't say it's that important. I find that too long of a thread just makes the risk of knots and messy yarns all too great. And it really isn't a problem to intertwine the new yarn with the old one! I usually separate the ends into two strands each, before wetting and rubbing them between my hands, it makes it a bit easier! =)Fannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00884979720360070270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2110986536825447894.post-25259079319350734302010-07-13T20:28:17.053+02:002010-07-13T20:28:17.053+02:00Very nice indeed!
