Making a hooded jumper for baby grandson. All fine until the last bit - band that runs up the front opening, all round the edge of the hood, and down the other side. 'Pick up and knit 3 sts from every 4 rows...' and on a circular needle, which I've not used before.
Have gone wrong twice already. So xxxxxxx hard to see 3 of every 4 for a start.
Am taking it on holiday, where there will be better light, and hoping to crack the wretched band while Dh is off for half a day at a time cycling round Burgundy.
I will never again embark on any pattern where you have to 'pick up and knit'.
