I don't have that many markers in my universe

small pieces of yarn work. Or, my favorite, the thin tangle-free hair rubberbands

don't worry, we'll all work through together

sorry, that first row is pretty intimidating!

but it looks doable, esp. on a good night's sleep

its really not anything hard- just counting!

the cast on really isn't that difficult

pretty much like the cable cast on only through the stitch instead of between

um, Painty since it's confession night I had to have tutoring to avoid repeating a year of math

and you actually only need 5 markers

aponi, we are sneaky like that. we use peer pressure to make you join and then make you LEARN things!

actually, the beads are making enough of a break in the pattern that I am using them to count. So only 4 if you are brave

i was thinking i wanted to mark each repeat (34 add'l markers)

but it's going well so far and now i am stopping for bed!

if you are a crafter you may have some splitvrings or jump rings - I always use jump rings on lace- nice & smooth & no dangles

I'll sometimes put stitch markers ever 2 pattern repeats if the project requires a lot of stitch markers
