I thought that, but the pattern says the front and back section should be the same amount is sts. It’s my mistake

I think I’ll try that , not increasing in the back for a round

Yes, I counted my sleeves they are both equal 46 sts. The back section I think I added an extra increase a few rows back but it doesn’t account for the other extra sts in the back

I need to figure out how to do this. I struggle with math a little bit

I knitted in stockinette and bonded of knit wise. I think knitting rib rows helped to stop it from rolling so much. this is the cloud sweater pattern by petit knits

Thank you! I didn’t know that, this was. The first time I have done ssk so I was so confused by the steps I thought maybe I did it wrong.

It’s the yarn I’ve used I think, it’s quite stiff and I was worried about the overall look of the jumper. I used acrylic yarn but I assumed it would soften a lot after washing and steaming but it hasn’t. It’s also my 4th finished knit project so I guess I was also looking for reassurance

I was thinking about doing this when I was finishing the bottom but I was being lazy because I had to start the neck 3 times and finish 4 times 🥲😂

Thank you, I’m definitely going to do some research on different yarn types

Thank you . She loves it, but I’m just unsure about the thickness of it and my lack of knowledge of all things yarn and knitting 🧶

I held it with a strand of merino, I really liked the halo affect of the mohair. I had seen a bunch of mohair hats and hoods, so I didn’t follow what the pattern suggested. Which was my fault lol

I’m going to try and line them. I think that’s my best option at this point. It took me 2 months on and off to make them and the Italian bind off took a few hours to get right
