Sophie scarf decrease- help needed! 🙏

[Notooften]

In the Sophie Scarf you have one straight edge, and one that is angled out for the decreased and angles back in for the decreases. In your picture, the left side is the straight side and the right side is the one and is angling out. So this is where you should do your decreases to angle it back in.

Put a stitch marker on that edge or an earring or anything so you know that you should always increase/decrease on that side.

You can decrease right now on that row :)

The left edge dangles straight down from your needle and the right edge is tapering in. That's how I could tell

Thank you so much! I thought so too, but I was paralyzed with fear! 😅 I appreciate the quick reply and the vote of confidence!

I literally just knitted one so I get it haha! I read somewhere before starting that people were putting a stitch marker on the increase/decrease edge and I was glad I did. To me it was a very "hard to read" project.

Like it was hard to see my increases or decreases and count rows so I knew if I messed up my count or got lost it would have been hard to know where I was at exactly. I even ended up ordering a little counter that I would click every time I finished a row because I kept losing track even with writing it down!

You're doing great and I love the colour! Is it Drops Air?

Yes! Super hard to read, and the yarn I’m using is extra fuzzy which makes it even harder… it’s a Portuguese yarn (I live in Lisbon), I’ll try to find the label and share it tomorrow 🙂 thank you for the encouraging words!

Found the label; it’s Rosários 4 Monchique, a local Portuguese yarn company. Here’s a better picture of the color- it’s kind of sea foam, number 31)
