HOT OFF THE NEEDLES and I am stoked!
Rocky joggers by Tin Can Knits; now all that’s missing is the diaper bum to put in these.
This was a surprisingly fast and fun knit.
A few steps when I veered off the instructions:
1) Cast on. Instead of a provisional cast on, I used two circular needles and cast on with Judy’s magic cast on , just like I do for toe-up socks. This made it easier and quicker to work the joining round later.
2) I worked the increases M1L,…., M1R for the crotch.
3) I worked the two legs two at the same time. Again, much as I do for socks, sleeves etc.
4) When I got to the ankle cuffs, I knitted one full round before continuing in a 1x1 ribbing.
5) Lastly instead of binding off loosely, I used Jenny’s stretchy bind off method.

This is such a fun knit, I am sure I will knit more of these. TinCanKnits are one of my favorite patterns!
