I'd center it on the tree. As Jean from Cornwall said, a stitch or two won't wreck it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-1144682840846429972006-04-10T16:27:00.000+01:002006-04-10T16:27:00.000+01:00My last 2 emails to you about Koigu in July have b...My last 2 emails to you about Koigu in July have bounced.

Well, maybe i just need to get rid of some of the books i have first.<BR/><BR/>Oh! I was volunteering for the local public radio station fund drive and mentioned your mother's book to another volunteer (she was reading a story about black mormon pioneers) and she thought it sounded very interesting.xmasberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07695086692939379688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-1144666944208997562006-04-10T12:02:00.000+01:002006-04-10T12:02:00.000+01:00When I knitted guernseys I used to make sure I had...When I knitted guernseys I used to make sure I had an uneven number of stitches in the back and front (both) because the motifs seem mostly to have an obvious centre stitch. Then I could centre the one I wanted centred, and calculate how many stitches were going to be left over at each side - then there are patterns that do not have to have a specific width, or in some cases I filled the extra stitches with either stocking or moss stitch. Two stitches extra or less are not going to wreck the fit of the piece, so you may as well make it easy for yourself!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
