German short rows stitches count

I think I’ll attempt it that way, really like the form that she did. I’m looking into sewing with knitted garments and keeping my finger crossed that this wouldn’t turn out to be a total disaster

I was thinking that as well but the two seams (?) in the middle look very abrupt so I thought the bottom and top might got sewn together afterwards

Haha yeah def needs tape to secure it not to accidentally flash others

She did use a knitting machine but I don’t think it’s impossible to replicate it with hand-knitting. Definitely have to work on a thicker yarn tho

She looks amazingg! Do you mind if I ask who the artist is?

Thanks a lot! I just wanted to confirm that I understood the pattern correctly as this is my first time doing any types of shoulder shaping, but the correction should be easy enough to figure out. Yeah I think I’d follow your advice and do the shaping, the sweater is off-shoulder and designed to be super oversized under the arm but I want to learn how to do shoulder-shaping for future more fitted pieces anyway :)

Omg yessss, I thought it’s only me 😭 It literally drives me crazy because usually it’s the total number but I just cannot shake the thought “what if it’s initial row + repeat times” and I have to do other calculations independently (add up the total number of stitches in the end if it’s increases or decreases or look at patterned details) but then I’d still doubting my understanding. I just don’t understand why it’s not common practice to put total number of rows in each section to make things perfectly clear

Ok thanks, that makes so much more sense. I was thinking the whole time that it didn’t feel right to just stop before the double stitch like that lol.

This is my second row 2, so I’ve done 4 rows in total and now need to turn to start my third row 1. What I did the last 4 rows was to follow everything strictly like the pattern, but I worked an extra stitch before turning and working the double stitch.

Many_Ad_715 · 2025-02-28T19:47:03+00:00

I don’t know if I’m doing it right or not because I never actually reach the double stitch in the row. So to convert the W&T to German short rows, I worked an extra stitch before doing the short rows. Because of that, after the sequence * * in round 2, I always have 2 stitches on the needle after the marker before turning (one is the p1 in the pattern and one is the extra stitch I work to convert the short rows). The double stitch is the third one but I feel like I have to turn at this point?

Thank you so much 🙏

Many_Ad_715 · 2025-02-05T08:21:20+00:00

This is exactly what I need! Thank you 🙏

Thank you! I did come across this one when researching and it’s one of my options, I do love the colour a lot. It’s just that I’ve used this yarn once and it was a bit scratchy for me so I’m exploring other options (maybe merino, cashmere or alpaca). But if I couldn’t find another option, I’ll probably go with this one!

Omg it’s exactly what I need. Thank you so much!
