on 10/10/2009 I found your instructions very simple and easy to follow I like the angle of your camera as it gives me the view as though I am doing it myself! Thanks for this posting and please continue to post more how to knitting techniques!! I am new to knitting and have not been able to really progress pass simple scarves as my time for taking classes is so limited. I have seen this stitch in patterns but have not used it! Thanks again!
