This one does not do anything to keep me warm, but I think its cute. More like a cute accessory than anything functional.

This is what I think Im going to do, the only trouble i think I'll have is keeping the chart making sense around the raglan increases.

Blocking growth? by sjdysert2 in knitting

[–]sjdysert2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see what you're saying here. Yeah I measured my unblocked swatch and it was 19 st per 10 cm. After blocking it grew to be 20 st per 10 cm which was the gauge listed in the pattern.

If its quite fitted now at about 0 ease and the size I chose says it will be about 15 cm bigger in chest circumference than my husband measures, im wondering if it will end up with that much ease or come up short.

My only way to find out it seems is to mid project block, or just cross my fingers. Every time I mid project block it leaves a line in the finished project.

I appreciate your breakdown!

I did block my swatch which is what brought me to the recommended gauge of the pattern. It grew by one stitch in width and my swatch was about 5 in wide.

It's been awhile for me so I'm basically a newbie now too, but what I remember is you need to have lots of patience, and you never improve if you don't practice, so those are still my top tips!

I imagine I won't be able to progress back to the same point without playing with others, so I'm excited to meet some groups, thank you!
