Welcome to my Blog, a Crafting Year

Hello
I taught myself to knit in 2011 I have been posting photos of my knitting creations on facebook but as I am starting to bore my friends I have created this blog to record my progress. Then I thought I might try my hand at other crafts and see how I get along. I will try a different craft every month and you can read about my successes and failures and even laugh at my photos as I try different things like felting, crochet, sewing, papercrafts etc and try and make a few things from the kids favourite book Star Wars crafts, amongst others...lets see how it goes

putting it all together

So now I have a body and 2 arms so I just need to put it all together. Sounds easy right?


Ok the instructions say
"Using 6.5 mm circular needles & knitting in the following order (left sleeve, front yoke,right sleeve, back yoke) join body and sleeves together." Yet later on it says "graft stitches at the armholes"
What stitches?? I thought I had to join them? And how do I join them when I'm working in the round? I don't want to knit the sleeves closed!!
I am scratching my head and checking the forums on Ravelry.
