DIAGONAL JACKET

GETTING STARTED

The jacket is knitted in garter stitch, with a slip stitch selvedge. The first stitch of every row is slipped purl wise, with yarn in front. Then the yarn is moved to the back and you knit across the remainder of the row.

When making a stitch after this slipped stitch, make sure you pull enough yarn through, so that your work stays flat, and does not pull.

To remember which side of your work is the right side, pin a small safety pin on it as a reminder.

You may wish to use two balls of yarn at a time, to prevent any particular colour appearing in a block.

WORKING PATTERN LEFT BACK

Cast on 3 sts.

Row 1: Sl 1, M1, K to end of row. Rep this row until you have 56 (62 68 74) sts. Mark next row as RS with a small safety pin.
