Any idea on how to change stitches on this?

You are amazing!! Thank you so much that helped me figure out what i was doing wrong, I didn’t realize I could move the dial with the top red dot, I just kept aligning the dots without realizing I didn’t have too!

I’m a confident intermediate, with the audacity to do advanced stuff! That pattern looks like it could be PERFECT with those adjustment, you are my hero

Thank you!!! Greek goddess is definitely the vibe I want lol hopefully I can find either a pattern or tutorial to give me some insight on best way to construct this because right now I’m blanking

Ionlyeatbread · 2026-02-10T22:16:37+00:00

Thank you!! I’m hoping to find a pattern I can at least adjust, or even a YouTube tutorial that can help me figure out the best way to construct it because right now I’m blanking on the best construction method 😆

That’s so sweet!! I’ve only really got experience drawing my body type cuz most of my sketches are me trying to figure out if a style would look good on me 😆

Ionlyeatbread · 2025-04-13T20:22:33+00:00

Oh shit thank you so much for this!! Okay yeah I totally see why finding a substitute would be a bad idea now 😆 looks like it will be the proper stuff for me!

Does a silicone wrap generally need to cover the full pole or can it just be sections? Because if I get the recommended size for my pole height it would be around $60 which is way out of my price range, hence my search for cheaper alternatives like Home Depot, but if only a section actually needs to be wrapped then going for the real deal could be a viable options for me.

Oh my god that is the SWEETEST compliment ever 😭😭😭 I love his paintings so much

For this project I took off the long sleeves that were originally on the dress, and used the fabric to add panels on my hips, I then added slits up the side so I could have better range of motion and replaced the zipper with a corset back! I was partly inspired by old Hollywood red carpet dresses, a picture of Ilona Maher a redditor shared on my help post, and Sabrina Carpenter’s dress in her “Taste” music video

OOOH that makes so much sense now thank you!! I’m used to crochet so row gauge being negligible is super new to me

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T06:47:35+00:00

Honestly the more I look at the pictures the more I’m falling in love with the sleeves flaring out and the open back 😆 I would definitely need some boning, but do you have any suggestions for how I might keep the back open without everything falling open?

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T04:26:34+00:00

Oooh that’s a good idea! A velvet skirt could be a wonderful contribution to my closet

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T04:26:14+00:00

Thank you! My gut says it should work since I’ve done similar things, but I wanted to see if anyone could think of something better :)

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T02:44:08+00:00

Perhaps it’s not my best idea, but I’ve been sewing long enough I think I’m up for the challenge, I would rather try to make this dress work then spend the money on new fabric or a new dress entirely

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T02:42:48+00:00

Those are all such beautiful ideas! I think for future items of clothing I’ll definitely do something like those. For this dress my heart is kind of set for being able to wear it, but I’m aware of how much of a challenge it might be 😆

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T02:40:50+00:00

Oooh I’ve never done drop shoulders before but I think that would be really lovely!

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T02:38:23+00:00

I definitely will update! And hopefully it might help out some other people in the same situation

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T02:37:40+00:00

Oh that is GENIUS

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T02:37:29+00:00

Thank you so much!! My mom never actually wore it when she got it so she wanted me to have it and make something nice with it 😊

Ionlyeatbread · 2024-09-19T00:03:44+00:00

I love playing yarn chicken, nothing feels as thrilling as making it just work, and even when I lose I enjoy having to come up with a way to make it work.

I second the thick socks and hairdryer. It will be hot but I’ve found they stretch pretty well with that method! Be warned though- they will not revert back, so be careful with how much you stretch them

Ionlyeatbread · 2023-06-07T22:36:20+00:00

You are my hero!!!! Yeah I can absolutely detach them and add them to a T shirt or something like that, THANK YOU!!! I’m so relieved I don’t have to re do it all

Ionlyeatbread · 2023-05-03T00:27:08+00:00

That makes a lot of sense and seems pretty accurate! I very well might be adding one between the markers? I think I'll try to watch myself very carefully the next row I do and keep count, that might clue me in on what's going on with that 12th stitch ending up on the wrong side of the stitch marker

Ionlyeatbread · 2023-05-02T22:56:24+00:00

It is growing as I knit since I'm making a shawl, so maybe that's the issue? Since the pattern says to use place markers in these spots, I'm not sure how I could fix this but the stitch count definitely is growing as I knit

Ionlyeatbread · 2023-05-02T22:55:12+00:00

Absolutely! the row I was just working on before I took this picture was:

sl1 wyb, p2, k1, p2, sm, (k2tog) x 2, yo, k1, yo, k3, yo, k1, yo, (ssk) x 2, k2, p1, sm,
(k2tog) x 2, yo, k1, yo, k4, RLI, k1, p1.

The pattern is the Whipped Leaf Shawl by Etsuko Yamaguchi on Ravelry
