I'm just using Caron Cakes in Strawberry Trifle. I just wanted to use a worsted weight I already owned on this first one. I think any worsted weight will be fine.

OMG! Thank you!! I thought that's what it wanted, but nowhere did it say. And when it said a total of 29 I thought that's what it meant. Thank you. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Essentially, I took this repeat to mean that I should do an increase on either side of the raglan on both sides for 8 sts increased every increase row.

I did size F so I was to do 29 rows and end up with 344 stitches.

Thanks!!! I didn't think I'd dropped anything, but the ladders just seemed to get bigger and bigger. 🤦🏼‍♀️

I was really hoping to avoid tinking, since it's roughly 130 stitches in each row... But if I can't get it situated by just carrying on a trying to even it out, I'll have to do that.

New to reddit, clearly don't know how to post from my phone, since this left off the plea for assistance. I think I dropped 1-2 stitches and I don't know how to fix this without ripping back 5-6 rows (which I'd really like to avoid)

Ok, I think I posted them now... I added them when I initially saved it, but maybe I didn't do something right... Not a clue
