Aug. 26th, 2005 01:09 pmI have a question for anyone who uses (or has used) the Nifty Knitter

Well I started to make a pair of legwarmers with the smallest sized one, and now I am finished. But What I don't know how to do is finish the end. The instructions that came with it are directions for making a hat, so they just gathered it to make it into a point. I know I have to go through it all with something so that it doesn't un ravel, but I'm not sure exactly how. (I am not a knitter, hence why I am using this crazy contraption.. it's my first project)


also: should i just knot and cut that starting yarn? will it un ravel?
thanks!
btw/fyi: this thing is great! I finished all this in one day, off and on, and while watching movies. It's fun to do and even someone who knows little about knitting such as myself can knit soemthing! they come in different sizes, one about torso sized so you can make sweaters and then use the size I used to make sleeves for it. It is also useful for hats, socks, legwarmers, and armwarmers. They also sell the same thing but in a straight line so you can make square sections for a blanket maybe or a sweater even (makeing 2 panels and then sewing it together.
