I must knit it for my daughter , in the next time.
Adorable bib!!
I found your bib pattern on Ravelry, and linked to here. I had to laugh when I read in your profile that you are trying to stop cursing. I have been trying to do that, myself. It's not as easy as it would seem! Actually, when I stop to think about it, I believe I have been trying to stop cursing for about 17 years!! I tend to beat myself up when I "slip", yet I do keep trying!(lol)
Thank you for the Bib pattern! It is really cute and unique! It is a great idea for a quick baby gift!

Great bib, can't wait to knit it, I think ppl like you who can make patterns are pure genius, major thanks to you xox
No, in the pattern you dont do a wrap and turn. That's how the hole is created. If you dont want a hole you can do a wrap and turn! Its up to you! But it may affect the end result of how well it forms a circle.

I'm from UK so yarn is named differently...is worsted weight the same as chunky? And if I used 2 strands of baby cashmerino would that do the same job?
When I say beginner I mean like 3wks into knitting lol, I've knitted a baby cardigan, a pair of baby Mary-Janes, a headband and this bib will be my 4th item knit, can't wait to see if my skills are good enough for this bib, it is SO CUTE!!!! Doing ur manly bib next!! How do I send u pix on here? Do u have Facebook for ur "fans" as I know exactly how THAT works lol!
Worsted weight is 10 ply. I'm not sure how its described in the UK.

Try this link and see if that helps you any.
Confused..... thanks
I was also confused on that part but I figured it out...you knit til 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 stitches take your working yarn and bring it in between your two needles then turn and continue knitting til the end of the row. You know you have done it right if you have the proper amount of stitches on needle 16 or 17 or 18...not sure if this is the proper way to do it as I am a newer knitter but it works. Great pattern so cute and fast project once you get the hang if it. Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Rhonda
