Confessions
of a Knitting Heretic
.

This technique is useful when joining a
sleeve to the body of a sweater - it is a
combination of the stitch to stitch and
the row to row joining techniques. When
joining a sleeve to a sweater body it is
best to begin working at the center point
of the top of the sleeve toward the back
underarm edge, then turn the work and
repeat for the front of the sleeve
join.
Step
1:
Lay the two pieces to be joined (piece A
& piece B) edge to edge. On piece A,
insert the needle into the center of a
stitch on the edge row and pull the needle
out from the center of the first stitch in
the second row.
Step 2:
On piece B, work behind a stitch in the
edge row by inserting the needle into the
space between the right side of the a
stitch and pull the needle out from the
left side of the same stitch (figure
1).

Step 3:
Return to piece A and insert the needle
into the center of the stitch to the left
of the previously worked stitch in that
row. Pull the needle out from the center
of the stitch 2 stitches to the left of
the first stitch worked.
Repeat steps
2 & 3 until both pieces are
joined.
