Shag-a-delic

I'm using Berocco Comfort yarn to knit up Shag. I'm not happy with the way the picked up stitches leave a gap along the diagonal, but I'm going to finish it anyway.

There shouldn't be gaps along the pick-up. Is it possible to take a picture so I can see what it looks like?
Maybe one of us who has knit shag can help figure it out. Helen... our resident shag expert... are you there?

I'll try picking up with a smaller needle.

The problem may be that I'm not picking up AND knitting. I was having a tough time picking up and knitting along the diagonal. Instead, I'm picking up stitches from the bottom corner to the remaining stitch at the top; THEN I knit my way back down.

I'll see if I can find my digital camera and post some happy snaps.
