note to self

okay, okay, so seeing t's knit post inspired me to take a look at the chevron stripe scarf that has long been dormant. i'm pleased with it in concept, but each time i put it down i forget the pattern, and the reference i have is incorrect. i have to figure it out every time i restart, using google searches and whatnot. this time i had to do some tinking back and re-knitting (had to bust out the crochet hooks for dropped stitches and everything) on top of the google searches and the knitting help website. blah.

so here's a note to myself. and now, may it be documented on my very blog, so that i will always know where to look for the corrected pattern and i don't have to waste as much time getting re-started!

row 1: k1, ssk (that's slipping first as if to knit, then as if to purl, just for consistency's sake)
[k9, sl2 tog k-wise, k1, psso] k9, k2tog, k1.

row 2: k1, *p1, k4, [k1, yo, k1], k4*, p1, k1

i'm sure one can do the centred double decrease however one pleases, but that's the way i've been doing it.

there. it's documented. [sigh of relief]
