I'm about to cry

I bought the “Woody Bits” summer scarf pattern, but the edge looks terrible no matter which one I try—it never works out.

Can someone please help me figure out which edge to use and how to do it? I should mention that I’m new to knitting.

Good morning, dear Yvonne,

have you written to the author yet? Maybe she or he can help you directly.

Unfortunately, I’m not familiar with the pattern, but judging by the picture, it looks like you’re not knitting the border after finishing the shawl. Maybe it’s just because the shawl hasn’t been blocked yet—that works wonders!

Or is it the pattern itself?

Let me know!

Best regards,
Kathrin

Hi Yvonne,
I wrote to the author of the pattern and asked her to help you.
It’ll all work out.
As Kathrin also said, you can always ask pattern authors for help here.

Hi Yvonne,

I sent you a message.
Is this just about the scalloped bottom edge, or are you having problems with other edges too (since you wrote “no matter which one I try…”)?

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly, or post in the forum—it’s best to include which pattern it is about in the subject line (that way people are more likely to respond quickly ;-) )

@ Josefa: Thanks for the message and the tip =)

Yes, it was about the border once, but I’ve more or less got that now ^^ Yes, the points are the question mark ^^
