Let's Knit Magazine - Your knitting, your style

I really need some help I have followed the pattern to the letter and it just isn’t right. The rib is only in the contrasting colour and none of the black is coming through on the glove I really dont understand what i have done wrong can someone please help!!

Hello Teenknitter, welcome and can you tell us which issue the pattern is in?
And for me.....what is it??? I cannot remember it.

Hi again, I have found the pattern, the only thing I can think of is that you have forgotten to change your colours to include the main colour AND the contrast.

I think we could do with a bit more info please. 

YOOHOO..YOOHOO teenknitter where are you???

Have you worked out your problem?????

But we are a great bunch in this old folks home(has Nessa puts it )are we not????

If this is what an old folks home is like Cheryl I am going to put my name down now.....if I can sit and knit all day and have someone make my meals and clean my room...I’m all for it.....as long as they let Bill come with me

Well, I have been for a peep at your blog and may I say what a pretty and talented girl you are? You have made some lovely things so far so I hope you dont give up, try to use your knitting to relax after the pressures of studies. I love the doll you have made.
All the best for your future and if I can give you a little tip.....dont take anything too complicated on holiday. You want to be able to enjoy yourself, not worry over a pattern. Plenty of time to knit when you get home!!!!!

I have been for another nosy and I love your cat. I have two myself, what are known as “jellical” cats....black and white.
Your knitting is very good and any time you get stuck just shout....there is usually someone about.
My daughter went straight to work after leaving school and only went to uni. after she was made redundant from one of her jobs. She said later that it was the best thing for her. She did’nt think she had the confidence to cope with uni when she was younger. I think she was right and as long as you have support then you do what is best for you.
As for boyfriends.....plenty more out there a pretty girl like you won’t be without one for long.
