- Altering the length of a knitted sweater can be done with a bit of sweater surgery! In this step by step knitting tutorial I'll be showing you how to add length to a growing child's sweater. However, the process I describe in this video can equally be applied to adjust the length on any "plain" or stockinette knitted sweater. Let's do this!
Wow this is just what I was looking for. I want to shorten sleeves on a hand knit. Thankyou
Hi! What do you do with the carried yarn of the stripes inside?
Theres no sense in taking out all that yarn , at all. Just pick up your two rows of stitches leaving one row between them (using much smaller needles) then take out the one row thats inbetween them .
Thanks for your suggestion. It made sense in my head and worked for me to do it this way when working on this project.
I tried to unpick the rib to lengthen a sweater but found it soul destroying so got out my scissors,all I lost was a row of yarn,found it worked for me as I don't have a lot of patience with unpicking.😊
