I Learn SO MUCH from a Swatch
I was concerned that I’d be able to see the Knit stitches that were next to a Purl because it was a lot bigger.
But, I was happy to see that this wasn’t the case! If I was planning to make a full FO, I’d be confidant that I’d get a nice result!
Another Learning
It was also good for me to work up the swatch because I learned the stitch pattern and other things become more intuitive for me. I never would have known that if I didn’t swatch first.
