I want to make a Torchon miniature shawl which starts on a straight line. The background is Bucks which I don't have any problems with but I do not understand how I work the ground on a diagonal when I start from a straight line. Can anybody assist?
thanks

Dear Micki,
If you start the straight edge on the vertical, then the ground will automatically be diagonal. If you are starting at one corner, then you will be adding a lot of pairs. Roz Snowden has a couple of miniature shawls in her first book of miniatures and she adds a pair at every inside pinhole along the straight trail that forms the straight edge. Of course after you get to the midpoint, you have to throw out one pair. If you are not using Roz Snowden's book, I can't offer much more advice.
