I especially like it for the baby things. Heck, we used to pick up the back of a sweater as we knitted the front. <br /><br />I wanted to get a twist to the sections of the circle, without it being too much work. We've all done pie shapes. <br /><br />DianaDiana L.

You're quite right about techniques...Hi Diana,<br /><br />You're quite right about techniques having been around for a long time. In the late 90's I used this same technique for a tree skirt, I just left the back open instead of stitching that last one together so I could wrap it around the tree trunk. I too was all excited about having "thought up something new", but was quickly shown how some shawls were knit using the same idea. Oh well... it's still wonderful and it's great that you put it up on video so other's can see how it's done. Good Job!Clarissehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08941938331215385795noreply@blogger.com
