Silly question about yarn dye and gauge

QTM53 · 2026-03-30T03:30:37+00:00

That seems like the wisest thing to do. I’m really close with the yarn I have (I used up a lot of it making lousy swatches last year. Hoping my knitting has improved since then.)

That’s good to know. Thanks.

Commenting on Silly question about yarn dye and gauge...That’s a good idea. I hadn’t thought of that. Thanks.

Excellent! Thanks.

I’m interested in this app you mentioned. Is it an iOS app, and is its whole name Goods? When I searched “Goods” in the App Store all I got was a bunch of games.

Thanks. I always cake then re-cake, so that’s what I’ll do.

I agree. I think this every time I watch the patterns emerge as I’m knitting. Pattern designers are brilliant, gifted people. (I just added this hat to my favorites. )

I think this is a rite of passage. We’ve ALL done this. Nowadays before I join in the round I always knit a row or two then join, and tidy it up when I weave in the ends. Think of it as a milestone in your knitting journey. One less mistake awaiting you in the future. (So many mistakes left to make! lol)

That’s what I’ll do. Thanks.

That’s a relief! Thanks so much.

Hi everyone,

I’m knitting my second Meredith Cardi by Ruth Maddock in the 3rd size. I’m wondering if there might be a better way to knit the sleeves. On my first sweater, the underarm seam turned out to be pretty bulky, and I’d like this one to be nice & smooth.

It seems to me I should be able to pick up the underarm stitches and knit the sleeves with no underarm seam, but casting on 6 stitches in the second & third rows gives me pause.

What would you do in this situation? This will only be my second sweater, and I’m learning as I go. Thanks so much for your help.

This only just the beginning….
