When I do this type of provisional cast on, I don't count the slip knot as a stitch, but I DO count the yarn that goes from the slipknot around the bottom cable then up to the first top stitch as a stitch for the cable/bottom row.. as you can see in photo 8, with the slip knot up, there is a bottom stitch being held in place. When you remove the slip knot but weave the yarn tail in, the bottom stitch will remain secure but there won't be an ugly knot in the middle of your back!

Second note: don't stress about whether you've lost a stitch or not, because one stitch isn't a big deal for this pattern since there is no structured stitch repeat that requires a specific number of stitches in the body of the sweater.

If a new knitter was already comfortable with provisional cast-ons (maybe through learning Cat Bordhi's mobius cast on?) and Magic Loop, this is do-able. I can see how it would be scary to someone who doesn't have those skills yet.

The benefit of knitting it this way is that the light, airy fabric doesn't have any seams interrupting its beauty.

Sorry, my Veronique hasn't actually been finished, I got excited about other projects and working on my own designs so it has been in a bin for a couple years :(

When you say'Slip knot from original cast-on now removed", do you mean to untie the knot completely? Won't you lose one stitch?

This sounds pretty scary to a relatively new knitter. What's the benefit of knitting Veronique this way? Do you have pic of your finished V?

Rather actually! Stretch armhole stitches around curve of working needle before beginning increases across stitches from spare needle.

This is something I will definitely try in the near future. Hopefully it's not as hard as it looks in the photos.

Anyone planning a European vacation simply must include Prague in the itinerary. The “Golden City,” situated on the bank of the River Vltava, is not only the Czech Republic’s capital, but is also its largest city.

I started thinking about the construction, and pondering a good selvedge for seaming purposes, and THEN I started trying to figure out if it could be made in the round. I could picture the “T” diagram with horizontal stripes on it, and then picture those stripes as they would meet in the seams, and realized it could be done. All of this was BEFORE I joined the Veronique KAL… when I had gotten through my cast-on and had it working, I looked around to see if I could share the technique, only to discover that everyone in the KAL was already talking about it, but they were working it from the outside in with plans to graft across the centre back and gathers at the end!

Yow! This looks great, even though to be honest I can't understand much of what you're saying as I haven't closely examined the pattern yet. :) It's third in line...so this will come in really handy in a couple of weeks, thanks, Christa! - Zina (aka GlobalTraveler)
