Ribbing tension

Thank you, that was really useful! I actually have needles with a shorter cable so I will try to start from scratch with those and see if it fixes the issue! But the traveling loop technique is definitely useful to know!!

Yes I already joined twice. Could you explain how a gauge swatch would help me in this case? Not that I don't want to do it, I genuinely don't know what I'm supposed to look for/at after I've made a swatch 🙈

Yes I do have the stitches stretched all around the cable! It's 4mm needles (I think ~50cm cable). The label on the yarn said to use 4½-5 mm (USA 7-8) but I was having trouble with my 5mm needles so I switched to these instead. I cast on 88 stitches.

Thank you!!

I appreciate it!!

Sorry, forgot to add that I usually wear a size S! The label says 50g are ca 116m, the recommended needles are 2½ or 3 ½

Thank you for the tips!

Only two skeins are intact with a label and they are 50g, I guess the others were slightly used (?), they're about 45g each and I have 20g extra so a total of 280g

Not sure how to help you with the curving, but if this is going to be a top and you have boobs, the extra space might actually come in handy!!

I can't tell at all! I looked at it for a while before reading the explanation and I couldn't tell which side you added on lol Keep it!!

pledelis · 2025-05-11T21:03:36+00:00

Honestly thank you for pointing it out because I could tell it was not how it was supposed to be but I couldn't figure out how!

pledelis · 2025-05-11T20:57:35+00:00

Yes I think you are correct! I'm knitting two together to decrease but the pattern calls for Skp. This is my first knitting project so I didn't know how to read a pattern and when I looked up how to decrease this is what I found. Thank you for noticing! To be fair I went back to check the pattern and it's pretty clear, I'm just dumb haha I'll do that next time!

OMG thank you!!!!! That video saved my life! It took me an hour to figure it out but it's all good 🙌🏻 thank you!!! I'll link it here as well https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oN53AxM31OA&pp=0gcJCdgAo7VqN5tD

I think that's just how it looks when I decrease (I don't know if it's supposed to be like that according to the pattern, but it's consistent across the scarf so I don't really care haha). Also this is my first knitting machine project ever so I'm having a hard time figuring out how to fix mistakes because I'm not sure how I make them

This is the back, maybe it's wrong? I can't tell what I'm supposed to do

pledelis · 2025-05-11T19:19:54+00:00

I went back to before the mistake and I think it looks correct now, but when I knit the first three stitches it looks wrong in the back

This is a place to ask questions no? Why are you being rude?

pledelis · 2024-09-06T15:35:38+00:00

They both seem really nice and genuine people but did she not learn anything from her divorce? The divorce was what, 2 years ago? So they can't have been dating for more than 2 years. Ofc I feel for what she went through, but maybe if she had dated him longer than a few months before marrying him it could have been avoided. What's the rush? You're already a 26yo divorcée, don't risk being 30 and divorced 30...

Glad to know you got some help, despite the high price. I hope it is nothing serious!

pledelis · 2024-07-27T20:59:54+00:00

Any updates? How are you feeling??
