ok I've tried to do this and I just end up with a big tangle! Where it says to turn work around and Knit 2 so that all stitches are back on one needle.' I end up with more stitches then I'm supposed to.

hmm... it's just like working a short row. Make sure you haven't added a yarnover in there somewhere! Good luck!

grrr I just can't do iiiit! I'm getting annoyed with it and it just ends up being more wrong. It doesn't go neat it doesn't seem to be any kind of pattern in the knitting and everytime i put the slipped stitch back on the other needle the stitches go all crissed crossed and all tight!
:(

I had to eliminate the increases (yo and slip stitches together) to make this work. Otherwise, it made no sense and I had a mess.

If anyone is going to try this, I suggest ignoring the yo and slip stitch parts. Just knit and turn. I hope that helps, queenfairypants.

Aside from that problem, this pattern is nice and the ruff is quite cool. I can't wait until the late fall when I can wear it!

So Alyssa J. you skipped the "yo, slip 1 stitch, yo, slip the slipped stitch back to the original needle" part? because i cannot figure out how youre supposed to to that
