It's a really cool effect for the edging and great that Jenifer was able to help you out.Rainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17967748137538608434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21548720.post-1146620725429482862006-05-02T18:45:00.000-07:002006-05-02T18:45:00.000-07:00You're not crazy -- that IS pretty cool pooling.

And the edge is so cool -- it's amazing to me how many different techniques there are out there that create such unusual, interesting effects.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you joined The Amazing Lace!

By 'plan to knit' I really mean 'don't expect it until next year'.<BR/><BR/>The Picovoli sleeve I tried out didn't work so I frogged it (*sob*) and began a(nother) sock to console myself. I knitted the picot edges for the sleeves this morning and just finished sewing them down. Now for the washing and blocking!<BR/><BR/>There will be knitting pictures aplenty this weekend.

It totally reminds me of neopolitan ice cream. Gosh I love those colors. <BR/>You are doing such a great job on the top and hand winding I might add...hugs!KnitPastishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15559491322677694832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21548720.post-1146600379889696912006-05-02T13:06:00.000-07:002006-05-02T13:06:00.000-07:00Oh, I like it a lot!

I first thought it was Noro when I saw the pict. :) I knit an hourglass sweater in the rnd while alternating every 2 rows, and I definitely got an odd "column" of slightly offset stitches, which was okay, but still ... but as someone mentioned, you just carry the other yarn up the side.

You won't have to weave in a lot of ends if you just carry the yarn from the unused ball along up the wrong side of your knitting for the couple of rows you are using the alternate ball. (However, I think your top is looking nice the way it is.)YarnThrowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13261414607842071918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21548720.post-1146588057748276422006-05-02T09:40:00.000-07:002006-05-02T09:40:00.000-07:00I love the pooling!
