@Lorraine E: Hi Lorraine, please no sorry I’m delighted you got back to me & grateful😍 I know what it’s like with family, always something & hope your family is ok after emergency❤️ Really valuable advice about the Kitchener, wasn’t looking forward to it at all but bit concerned blanket might not look right if lace sections were not mirror image. You made it just knitting straight on & thinking you were happy with it so that’s what I’m going to do. I thought I’d wait for your reply & in meantime knitting a mini teddy blanket same to go with it to experiment test piece last bit & was going to knit straight on to see if it looked alright avoiding dreaded Kitchener😂only just got past first lace bit so was so pleased you messaged me with your advice. Your blankets were an inspiration & helped me choose that one, this yarns cost a lot but worth it, it’s looking lovely apart from minus last bit! Appreciate your help, thanks Lorraine 😀🧶
Hi Angela. Sorry I’m slow getting back to you - family emergency! The first one I used Kitchener stitch and caused so much angst! And I don’t like the look! So the 2nd one I just knitted straight to the end. I just couldn’t get my moss stitch looking right with the Kitchener!🧶

Stunning Lorraine, love the edging 😘
Thanks Elaine. The last time I made it I did the end 3dging separate and Kitchener stitch it but what a mission! This time I didn’t and it’s Kok🧶

Fabulous shawl Lorraine. That edging looks very complicated and you’ve done it so beautifully. 💖
Omg! Purling not purging!
Thanks Helen. It looks complicated but really it’s only knitting or purging into the back of the stitch. I think it’s 6 rows to the pattern 🧶

Hi Lorraine, your blankets are truly stunning❤️I’ve just knitted it in cashmere Debbie bliss luna & it’s beautiful but not done last lace bit. Please can I ask as you’ve done both methods, would you just carry on knitting so it’s not a mirror image or would you recommend Kitchener st which I’m scared stiff of but would have go😂I’d appreciate your advice & admire you’re knitting to the max😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
