Okay, so I'm following the Aubrey DoodlePants knitting pattern for shorties for Hay and I got down to the crotch and used the kitcheners stitch to to that, and something went terribly wrong...
First picture, I have my 40 stitches on my stitch holder and you can see the crotch in the middle and then my circulars on the other side just waiting to be made into a leg.
Next, you can see where I am ready to start my first leg that my circulars are attached to and where I ended my crotch.
So I start knitting, and it's inside out. (Kind of hard to see because I only did a few, but at first I didn't notice and did about 3 rows all the way around before noticing) The little 'v's are on the inside...
and another view of the inside-out-ness... This is taken from the outside of the pants..
and not only that, if I do it this way (which it's obvious I'm doing something wrong) there would be a big gaping hole between the crotch and where I start knitting..
A couple suggested I was pearling and not knitting, but I know for sure I wasn't pearling. I have no idea what I did wrong. I know I did the crotch like the instructional video said so I'm not sure what's going on but I want to finish these shorts for my son.
