Your grandsons are adorable, but don't tell the middle schooler that, he won't like that at all. As for the knitting, if you knit every row, or purl every row you will get the same affect. To get a flat surface you have to knit a row and purl the next and keep going. Hope that helps or maybe I misread your problem.<br /><br />Hope you have a wonderful week,<br />Meredith Mereknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04596140300034854370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229743630534449187.post-12018466279072519292016-10-22T12:33:06.515-07:002016-10-22T12:33:06.515-07:00Two adorable little boys.

Lovely washcloths and sounds like a great day of watching shows. I love tiny homes and fixer upper programs. Your grandboys are super cute. Trying to get back to daily drawing here but so far failing. I can't seem to stick to anything. I did finally complete my v-stitch baby blanket so now can move on to something else. Have a good weekend.

I'm so disappointed to not see you today but I enjoyed reading about all of your projects. You've been busy! Love the pillow and the washcloths. Doing four rows of garter stitch is like doing four rows of knit stitch...you still get bumpy rows every other row. Did that make sense? I hope everyone is on the road to recovery at your house now. I miss you sweet Gracie.<br />Blessings always,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229743630534449187.post-3223033399735823002016-10-21T20:11:00.564-07:002016-10-21T20:11:00.564-07:00You've made some very pretty things, Gracie.
