Great episode, as always. I think your added visuals were really helpful; “seeing“ the math in operation really helps get an understanding of just what you’re talking about. Keep it up!
I just found your channel❤️Thank you so much for this! I’m knitting a sweater that I need to do this exact adjustment. This has been extremely helpful.
The visuals were SO awesome! I absolutely love these videos! It gives me a peace of mind when I'm making adjustments that my thoughts are on the right track. This is truly a gap in the knitting world that you are filling. Thank-you!
Hi Charrisse - thank you so much for watching! I'm glad the videos are helping you. It makes my day to know that they give you more confidence in your own mods! Happy Knitting!
Hi, I love your channel and watch all the time! I have a question about how to modify for broad shoulders on a raglan. My daughter’s upper chest and full chest are the same size 34” but she has really broad shoulders that go across in a straight line. How do I modify a raglan to accommodate her shoulders? Any advice greatly appreciated ❤
Aw - thank you for spending with me here! This is a great question. This is a great discussion topic, as this will help a lot of folks. I've got this in the queue to cover early in the new year!
Thank you so much. Just so you know, my daughter likes oversized knits and because of her broad shoulders the front of sweaters and cardigans rise up making the front shorter than back! Look forward to seeing you soon❤
Great podcast! Would the mods be the same if you want to decrease the sleeve length? I already knit the body but I would like about 5 inches less than the total sleeve length. Thank you so much
Thanks, Lorrie! I appreciate you watching! In Episode 3, I talk about modifying the length of a sleeve and how to figure out the spacing of the shaping. It's not quite the same - it's more math vs visuals but you might find it quicker. You could certainly draw out your sleeve rounds using the same method as you see in this video if you'd want to, it would just take longer.
I am new to reading patterns. I could not identify Setup A/B in the pattern pdf. I see the cast on ad collar. I also see the short rows, but I do not see any set up rows that indicate size. Could you direct me to these in your MyFirstSweater_v1.pdf pattern?
How can I change the circumference of sleeves by decreasing more frequently? They are 2 inches too large I have stitches on waste yarn at armhole. There are too many making a very large sleeve.
Hi Meaghan. This is exactly the information I needed a few days ago when I was trying to adjust the sleeve circumference on the Tresora sweater by Isabell Kraemer. I wanted to increase six stitches so winged it by altering the body/sleeve increase and body only increase rounds. Basically instead of *Rnd 1 body/sleeve increase, Rnd 2 Knit, Rnd 3 Body increase, Rnd 4 Knit* Repeat __ times I would repeat Rnds 1-4 a few times then do repeats of Rnd 1& 2, Rnds 1-4, Rnd 1& 2, Rnds 1-4. (Hope this makes sense) I got to the right counts and maintained the yoke depth. As I am already well into the body of the sweater and I don't want to frog back I will keep going as when I tried the sweater on it looked fine. Going forward I will definitely be using your chart and increase method. As I have the whole day to myself I am going to watch and learn from your other videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Oh, fantastic way to figure out the mods! I would love to hear what you think of the charted method next time but I'm really excited for you that you figured it out as you were knitting. Yay, you!
Really clear and instructive! I appreciate the visuals, the repetition of actions that helps cement the learning.
