What an AMAZING colour, all of this is making me want to add to my stash, even though I promised myself I wouldn’t!

Also! For all those who are stressing about counting rows, I super encourage you to do what I’m doing and forgetting about the row count, and just doing the pattern until you reach the measurements in the schematic, which also controls for your row gauge being off!

This is beautiful, and giving me hope that I can get to the same point sometime. Life has been a little overwhelming lately!

Hi! I’m a loose knitter, too. I did lots of swatching for this pattern because usually I’ll end up with stitch gauge but not row gauge. But this pattern requires both, if possible. I ended up with US4 rather than the recommended US6 and a sport yarn rather than DK.

This is my first day jumping into the Lounge for the Turnstile KAL. I was looking over in IG but only saw a few Turnstile projects, so I was hoping I’d find more here…Hi! I’m admiring all the wraps here.
Working with variegated yarn is always a challenge. I wound the yarn into a center-pull skein. It’s a staggering 8 oz, so this took awhile 
To prevent unsightly color pooling, I’m alternating every 2 rows between the inside and outside of the skein. Textured stitches also helps and this pattern definitely has textured stitches.
The drape of the BFL is exquisite, I think this unique wrap will have an amazing swing.
Yarn: BFL Sport by @bluemoonfiberarts in the Gingersnap colorway.
I’m trying to upload a photo, but the wheels are spinning…

I just jumped in and ordered this beautiful yarn for this beautiful project! I had been telling myself for days/weeks that I DON’T NEED MORE YARN, but I had to just do it! I ordered the Charles Village - it’s a gorgeous PINK!!! Not normally a color I would choose but I was feeling adventurous!!! Can’t wait til I can cast on. I’m almost done with my Penrose Tote!

Absolutely loving the photos, I’m going to be living vicariously through you guys for a bit because I have to shelve my wrap until I finish a deadline knit: my childhood friend is getting married at the beginning of august, and I’ve been making them a blanket, so I need to finish it before the wedding!

I, too, am living vicariously through all of you. I love the pictures and there are so many pretty colors. It’s neat to see the wrap developing through all of the stages. And I am saving the tips for when I actually start the wrap. Thank you all.

I got to a later start but made it to the back portion. I’m using Kelborne Woolens Scout. I had an awkward start with a metal needle. I switched to a Lykke and it has been smooth sailing. It’s a relaxing and engaging knit.

I’m finishing up the back and knitting a little long so am trying to figure out if I should do less than 30 repeats of the ribbed eyelet pattern. Looking at the chart, it appears that the front section of the armhole will be slightly longer than the back when the shoulder is stitched. I can’t calculate the difference based on the measurements on the chart. Has anyone gotten this far and can tell me what that difference is? Looking at the chart the length I’m trying to calculate is between the B on the shoulder and the B on the back. I appreciate any insight on this.

Hey friends! So I am at the point where I need to switch yarn balls and need to weave in the ends (and no, I didn’t switch skeins with every row. No patience for that…). Typically I do it as I knit, but with the pattern I am not sure that will work. Thinking that weaving up and down the edge might be the best way to do it. Anyone have any suggestions? How did you do it?

I did it as I knit. There is enough texture to the pattern that it really doesn’t show.

I don’t know if this helps since I can’t really visualize what you are asking. But it seems like this tutorial on seaming the shoulders might help answer your question.

I had other projects that sidelined my wrap project but after reading all these posts I’m going to have to find time to work on it today!

Karen, thanks for the link. That will help when I’m sewing the shoulder.
