I'm so anxious to start my wingspan I woke up in the middle of the night and started one with yarn I had on my 47" circ as a practice run before I order a 60" circ and I've spent quite a bit on expensive yarn. Later I spent most of the morning knitting and now have finished the first triangle (wedge?) to where the pattern states "Repeat rows 3 and 4 until there are no more working stitches. (i.e. there is nowhere to put the traveling marker.)"

Then - "Row 1 Sl1p, Knit to within 16 stitches of the marker, turn" - etc.

My question is WHAT marker? My marker is on my side table and I'm out of stitches. Have I counted Rows 3 and 4 wrong? Was I supposed to stop at an earlier point?

I have no idea what I've done wrong. I think maybe something was left out of the pattern. Those of you who have used Ravelry's pattern, please help.

Look at the instructions where it says in parenthesis: ( for triangle 2 knit to 16 stitches before the end of the row, turn).
Follow these instructions EXACTLY for you are working from triangle 1 to triangle 2. Then continue with rows 2 where you will place a marker and so on. Re-read it a couple of time. I had to do that before it made sense to me!
Best wishes, you'll get it!

thanks for the clarification. I, like nitwit04 had the same problem. I got frustrated and frogged all of the first triangle!!!!!

Thanks again
