    Logan,

    Oh! that's a great shot! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

    BTW...are those the National Scot pattern? That's almost exactly what I am going for! My wife, bless her heart, is trying to figure out the pattern (she is an accomplished knitter) and if they come out, colour-wise, anywhere close I will be a happy camper.

    thanks again.

    PS. Thistlelass, thanks for the reply. I like your instructions...specially the bit about a garter stitch making a nicely rounded edge...and showed them to my wife.
