Question
Cheriblu
I have just made a beautiful blanket that is perfection in stitch count (a first for me). But I very sadly realized it is not rectangular because my beginning chain and possibly 10 stitches are too loose. Is there any fix to going back and tightening a beginning blanket? The ends are 4 to 6 inches off (can't remember exact measurement.)
Or could the loose stitches/rows be removed and "finish off" the blanket so it looks good as new?
I almost feel silly asking. Just sad and can't frog the entire thing - over 5 skeins. Historically, I have always started way too tight.....so this time, went too far the other way.
If I put a backing on it, could I disguise the error? It is about 1.5 inches on each side at the wide end that would be turned under. Another person on Revelry put a gorgeous possibly thin fleece backing on their Blackberry Bobble Blanket.
Thanks so much for your help.
