Such an unusual shape and the final result is really fancy. I made mine all in green and even without a contrasting color, it looks sublime! My only remark is that the sleeves tend to roll up a bit Not sure if it's the pattern or my knitting though - " see all comments reply. Iceni " The pattern is knit on TWO straight needles. When it says turn, it means exactley that. Turn and leave the rest of the row of stitches without knitting them. This helps with the shaping.
Hope this helps. Lisa " To complete this row you will use a single ball of yarn all the way across the row, the other two balls can be removed after this row is completed, since they were only needed to shape the previous sections, going forward you will use a single ball of yarn. Lisa " Popular misconception, on many projects it may seem that way, but on projects that require shaping, which this project does, it's important to pay attention to right and wrong sides to make sure the decreases, which are the shaping occur on the same side.
Hope this helps, happy knitting. I printed the instructions each week also. I don't understand why the author couldn't just admit that there was an error. You can upload two images. We are adding your Comments. Are you sure you would like to report this comment?

Everyone will see your notes when they roll over your image. Loved the article, cleared up some terms for me lol. Learning to keep hand-wound balls soft is definitely an artform in itself. I actually have a swift I made but no ball-winder because I think the yarn cakes are too tight for my liking.
Anyone else do this? I begin by winding around my fore- and pointer-fingers. After I have a good amount of yarn wound on the, I slip my fingers out being careful of the center pull strand , pinch the ball-in-the-making gently between my fingers and begin winding again. It gives a nice cushioning space in the center and helps relieve that tendency to crushing that leads to knots. When winding my yarn I always wind into center pull such as Amy W does, beginning by winding around my thumb.
The difference for me is that I leave my thumb in the center as I gently wind around the ball which leaves some space so that when I am finished winding I squeeze the ball so the extra space disappears.
This little bit of space helps reduce some of the tension on the yarn within the ball and makes pulling from the center less stressful and wearing on the yarn. This is the clearest description of the ins-and-outs of the many and varied forms that yarn can take. Thank you! As a weaver, there is the additional deep and painfully learned personal understanding of keeping warp yarn organized. Never lose the cross in your warp!
Think of a warp as a 10 or 20 yard skein and it will be crystal clear to non-weavers. I agree that cones of yarn are a wonderful thing. If I missed it, point me in that direction. Happy knitting, crocheting, tatting, lace making and weaving! The only addition I would make is when winding delicate yarns from your swift into a cake, the tension in the resulting ball can be a problem.
I always wind lace weight cashmere from the skein using a non-electric ball winder and gently turn the swift to reduce the tension on the yarn. Then I wind it a second time pulling from the center onto a larger core electric ball winder.
The resulting second ball will be noticeably larger, softer and is less likely to keep that delicate yarn under tension. Tension is one enemy of all natural animal fibers. I enjoyed your article so much! Starting in the center, winding a bit around my thumb or finger and leaving a tail, then just wind as usual, making sure to,leave the tail hanging outside as you wind.
Happy winding! Thanks for a fun read. What a wonderful article. I am going to share with my spinning, knitting and weaving groups! I read somewhere, quite awhile ago that if you pull from the center of a ball, you add twist to the yarn and I found this to be true! It especially shows up in lace weaving, so I always pull the yarn from the outside of a ball! Happy knitting.

HANK So consensus points to hank being the correct term for a loop of yarn, fastened into a continuous circle with ties.
This is a pull skein! This is a bullet skein! BALL The yarn ball. This is a yarn cake! Donut ball or bagel ball… call it what you will. CONE The cone is the put-up of cheapskates, weavers and enterprising young knitters who stumble into the yarn inheritance of their hoarder grandmas.
Wind a Center-Pull Yarn Ball by Hand Fear not if you get stuck with unwound hanks, folded hanks, twisted hanks, cones or even hankenskeins without a swift, ball-winder or skein-winder. Tie a slipknot at one end of your yarn and attach it to the end of your winding tool.
Use your thumb to hold your yarn to the winding tool and begin to wrap it around the tool and itself while keeping the slip-knotted end separate. Keep on winding and wrapping your yarn to create a round ball, making sure that the yarn is crisscrossing over itself.
Once all of the yarn is wound into a ball, tuck the end under some strands in the ball to keep it in place. One thing to note about a hank of yarn is that you cannot use it for knit or crochet while it is in this form.
You need to roll it to form a ball or a cake to be able to use it without getting all tangled up! You can use a ball winder to make a cake or a ball of yarn. A ball of yarn is essentially the same thing as the name suggests. It is a type of yarn packaging where the yarn is wound in the shape of a ball. You have to create it by hand winding it. Many knitters prefer to roll their hanks of yarn into a circular-ball-like shape so that it is easy to use and handle.
Cakes of yarn are generally center pull and easy to use when it comes to knit and crochet. It is one of the yarn packagings that people prefer when it comes to converting a hank of yarn into something usable.
