Love the elbows.<br /><br />I sympathize with the desire to get away from separate bands, sewn on -- but the problem is, bands require a tighter tension and/or fewer rows to keep their shape. <br /><br />One solution I know of is to knit the bands with a smaller diameter DPN; leave the DPN in the band and switch to it when you get to it. Fussy, and how do you keep the DPNs from falling out?<br /><br />Came across another solution recently: work short rows every 10ish rows, so the band ends up with fewer rows. I may have to try that one.
