then do you overlap the v or go to the next one? I've had a sweater parts complete for months but have been afraid of the seaming, so it's still in pieces

I believe on the yellow she is going in the space behind the stitch (downward facing V), in the pink she is taking the left leg of one stitch and the right leg of the one next to it so that when they're finished and laying flat the pink's V follows in line with the yellow V

You always take the V that has the small part of the V that looks towards the middle, from each side.

@@JoannesWeb thank you Joanne. What I meant is, do you go into each stitch only once. But after sleeping on it I realized that's yes. Don't know what I was thinking! Lol
