Changing my stripes.
So number two was all about changing the colour of my rows, the eagle eyed of you will be able to see many more mistakes in this set as compared to my first go at garter stitch. This is because I was trying to introduce rib stitch into the mix and I kept getting it wrong so I kept picking it out and then re attempting to complete the row, this just made a hash of the whole thing and then ended with me getting very frustrated and stopping knitting. Which actually was the best thing I could do, as this forced me to find more rib and purl videos on the web to try and get this stitch nailed down.
So the changing of colour is easy and I think I can make it loads neater too. Again with this I have kinda developed a curve to the knit, this I will put down to tension I guess, the cast on edge at the bottom is much shorter than the cast off edge at the top, so this must be down to tension in my stitches.
Up next Rib stitch nailed.
