    Thankyou for posting these videos, I’m trying to learn to use my standard gauge

    1. Yes, an empty needle on the left is brought out.
    2. Well, it’s 59 picked up plus that empty needle, so 60 all together.
    3. Pick up just the leg on the very edge. You might have to pick up one “knot” to get all 59 picked up.

    I have three …
    I have three questions:
    1)When you start the second triangle and you say to bring out one more needle on the left…that’s one that doesn’t have a stitch picked up on it?
    2) When you start the 3rd triangle you say to pick up 60st then correct yourself and say 59. Do you pick up 59 for the second triangle too?
    3) When you pick up the loops, do you pick up both loops or just one leg?

    This blanket looks adorable and it’s nice to have an alternative to the usual shortrow wedge blanket!
