What is your preferred method of short row shaping within the body of a
garment? If you use the "wrap" technique, do you knit the wrap with the
stitch as shown here http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEsummer03/FEATbonnetric.html
or do you "unwrap" the stitch and K2/P2 tog? The sweater I am knitting uses
the short row technique to work a different color/pattern on the diagonal in
the body and sleeves, which lead me to wonder what techniques others use

You knit both the wrap and the stitch together when you go back to knit
long rows.

Sue, I use the Japanese method of short row, which lead me to wonder what
method others use.

I see. I use the w&t as shown in the Knitty article; I can never
remember how to do it when I need to, so go back and refer to it.
