    Hi Carrie. I meant to comment the other day but got interrupted. This was really cool and new to me. And thank you for showing how to graft the edges together. It has been so long since I have done it that I didn't recall the steps and that part was a great refresher. Oh, and I finally gave in and got some of those squiggly stitch makers (like the ones you had in this video and I think mentioned a while back) that I've been considering but couldn't justify getting for the longest time. So far, they are surprisingly nice for what they are. Oh and I enjoyed your little open edges "woop woops" 😂 Happy knitting to you.

    I resisted the squiggly markers as well but now I won't go back. 😂 Thank you always for your lovely comments!
