Jamesdee Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I do lots of knitting and recently bought a pattern I liked from my local Presse. Then I discovered that I didn't understand the abbreviations for the stitches!!! My French is reasonably good but I have been unable to can't get any help locally. Does anybody know of anyone in my area who knits and who could tell me what the abbreviations stand for? Any help would be very much appreciated.
