See page 101 Note: the gloves use the same chart as the hat (see page 21). This chart does not show any changes of color in the contrasting color (B). Change these B colors whenever you wish. Spread out the stitches on the right-hand needle each time you change color. This will stop the color rounds from pulling in. |
