Un poco de ayuda a las principiantes como yo

Para una principiante como yo en el mundo del tejer (hasta que conocí a las chicas de Las Palmas Knits),era absolutamene impensable el hecho de salir del punto bobo.

Veía las revistas y libros y me maravillaba que alguien pudiera entender esa maraña de dibujos y abreviaciones tan imposibles para mí, como intentar intentar entender el genoma humano.

Pero bueno, esos días han quedado atrás y ya me atrevo a hacer mis pinitos en el mundo del tejer, incluso ya no me asusto al ver un patrón e incluso a veces me atrevo hasta interpretarlo sin temor a que mi pobre cerebro se fría de intentar traducir los pequeños e infernales dibujos de los patrones.

Por eso he decidido echarle una pequeña mano a aquellas personas que están como yo y he colgado estas abreviaciones y de aquellas que conozco pondré al lado lo que significa en español.

Espero que sirva de ayuda :)

w&t Wrap and turn. If yarn is at front of work, bring it between needles to back of work; if it at back of work, bring it between needles to front of work. Slip next st, and bring yarn between needles, returning it to its previous position. Turn work, to begin working next row.
On a subsequent row, when working a st that has been wrapped, slip the st to the right needle, use the left needle to pick up the wrap, slip the st back to the left needle and work the wrap and st together as one st.
