Tip For the Day: Stockinette Stich

When you knit the stockinette stitch (knit, purl, knit, purl) it tends to curl. It is similar to the stitch you do in peg knitting. Since I used to peg knit, I know how to fix that curl.
  1. Once you're done with your project, smooth it out as much as you can.
  2. Then, you can squish it under your two mattresses and leave it and sleep on it for at least 3 days. (you are free to do more)
  3. Or, you can put a dictionary on top of it and leave it there for 6 days.
I will be posting tips daily, so watch out!
