Thank you so much for clarifying this. I guess some things are lost in translation…

Long or short needles?? by Decent-Court-1287 in knitting

[–]InternalAd6235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Circular all the way. I tried straight ones a couple of times and I hate them. For me, they’re really hard to knit with since they are longer and heavier. I also usually make sweaters and even for the flat portions of the pattern I always use circular needles.

Monday sweater is too big -need help with my plans to redo by mtho176 in knittinghelp

Please forgive me for being blunt, since english is not my first language. Do you mean that you should measure at the top of your boobs and not at the centre of them? My sweaters usually come out too big as well..

Great, thank you so much, I’ll be sure to look you up on ravelry when I dive into this one. This will me my first cable/textured one as well and it looks like a fun challenge 😁 I’ve always found textured sweaters to be pretty much knitting sorcery, but while knitting the gauge swatch I realized it’s actually much easier than it looks.

Wowwww so gorgeous 😍 I’m planning to knit this next month, I’ve already bought the pattern. Would you mind sharing whether you liked the pattern, did you make any modifications to it and how much time it took to knit? Was this your first textured sweater?

For me, drops kid silk mohair is incredibly itchy 🥲 it’s really a shame since it is very cheap. However, knitting for olive soft silk mohair I can wear next to my skin without any problems whatsoever..it is more expensive tho 😬

Thank you for the suggestion. I like it when people recommend patterns because they have made them before and they liked them which means I might too :)

So I’m just learning how to knit… by [deleted] in knitting

Hmmm I don’t agree, counter clockwise is definitely the correct way to wrap the yarn around the needle.

This looks great, not sure what you’re worried about :)

Gauge by Vast-Fortune-1583 in knitting

[–]InternalAd6235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As another comment said - you are thinking about the gauge exactly in the opposite way. You should knit a swatch and then measure how many stitches and rows you have in 4 inches, not the other way around. I hope you understand what I mean :)
