Thank you so much . You are indeed a very good instructor. i am so so glad that i came across this tutorial. i am starting this tomorrow. Lots of love.
I'm very glad you like it :) Please post your work on my facebook once you make it!!
Beginner knitter here. You have best vedios with very clear easy to understand instructions. I really like how you take time to show and explain pattern of each row. I am still struggle to understand what patterns say.
Also I learn so many new stitches and knitting techniques just from one vedio. Thank you so much for your amazing tutorials
Thank you so much for your kind comment! When I tried to learn knitting by watching UA-cam, it was so hard for me, so I try to show details as much as possible! If you have any question, please do not hesitate to ask me! I'm willing to help people! Enjoy knitting!
Thank you !!
Gives me a judgment
I'm moving right along
This has been fun to knit
Enjoy knitting!
Slow n easy to follow... clearly explained. Thank you
Thank you for your comment! Enjoy knitting!
Love this...thank you for detailed instructions. Blessings.
You're very welcome, thanks for your kind comment :) Enjoy!!
Your video is simply superb.. in one video you taught so many stitches it’s a treasure especially for new knitters like me
Thank you so much ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much! I made this video long time ago, so if you don't understand, let me know! Good luck and Enjoy knitting!
Thanks for your prompt reply🙂
You're welcome :)
Amazing tutorial,thank you sis 🤗🤗
Thank you for your comment :) Enjoy Knitting!
Definitely going to try this. Love it!! Thank you for this tutorial.
Thank you for your comment! I am knitting other summer knit again, stay tuned please :)
Hi e and clear instructions, thanks.
Thank you for your comment :) Here is the new version without sleeves, you can download my written pattern too! Good luck and Enjoy knitting!
Thank You!
You're welcome :)
thank you
Thank you for watching! Enjoy Knitting
Hi. I see a majority of your patterns for ladies tops/cardigans etc, are on circular needles, can these be used with standard single point needles, as I'm still trying to get to grips with the circulars? All your patterns look so pretty and I love the way you explain the stitches on your tutorials.
Thank you for your comment :) For the Raglan Sweater, I don't think you can knit them with the straight needles neither DPN(too short). The rest of them like this one, for sure you can knit them with regular needles. But you have to sew 2 pieces together once you finish knitting! Enjoy Knitting!
Hello again Beginner's LUCKraft, when you said repeat 4X when doing the "Grand Picot Eyelet" Repeat (DR1 - DR3) 4X, did you mean after doing 1X with written pattern then add 4 more times of DR1 to DR3 thus 5X total or just a total of 4X? I am already at this part and got confused. Please help, thanks :) :) :)
Sorry to confuse you, total of 4 times!
Could you tell me how much of yarn is used in grams. You could just weigh the top. This wl help in buying enough quantity. Thanks.
Hi thank you for your comment! I believe I used 1.5 balls, so probably about 300g :) Enjoy!
Mam Pl share boat neck u explain so well thanks
Enjoy :)
Hi. Thanks for the video. What a gorgeous summer sweater. I'm hoping you can clarify row 2 of D: Grand Picot at 14:00. It says (Sl1, K2tog, PSSO, WYO), K1( ) Repeat. When you showed this, you did repetitions of (Sl1, K2tog, PSSO, WYO) with the K1. Could you explain this as I was expecting (Sl1, K2tog, PSSO, WYO) K1 and then the repeat. Thank you.
Hi thanks for comment :) To answer your question, ( ) bracket means repeat, so You will repeat knitting within bracket which is ( Sl1, K2tog, PSSO, WYO) until 1 last stitch, then, K1 at the very end. So another word, you will not knit 1 until last stitch. I hope you know what I'm saying :) Enjoy knitting!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft That makes perfect sense. Thank you.
Can you help? ... for size medium what would cast on be ?
This top looks so fun
Sorry if question is silly but, my math skills are not my best asset
Thank you in advance!! And thank you for your nice video!!
Hi Nichole, thank you for your comment :) I'm 5'2" and 100 lb, and this was a bit big for me. If you are using same yarn as me, I would say 121, 124, or 127, somewhere around there. I would like to wear this very loosely, so even 130 would be ok :) Enjoy knitting!
Hi, I wear a medium to large t shirt, how many shld I cast on ?
185 ?
@@mrignayani04 If you are thinking to use same yarn as mine, maybe 185 is sounds too big, I would make 154 to start, you knit a few rows and make sure the size should be OK, then you want to decide whether you want to pursue or not! Enjoy :)
I am using landscape yarn.
I cast on 160. How do you calculate for gauge?
Hi Joyce, thank you for your question, Hmmm, how can I help you, because I don't have this anymore, this was a gift for my friend and I didn't really use any gauge for this project. What do you really need to know?! Is there any other way to help you? Let me know :)
Hi,
Could pls you explain how to adjust the lenght of this top, what is the pattern repeat to make it longer?
Thanks
Thank you for your comment :) To answer your question, it's up to you. If you can add a few more rows, then you can add some garter stitch at the bottom & top, or even in the middle of design. Or You can repeat any design you want as many as you want. Example, Design A is Eyelet and only repeat of 4 rows, so you can repeat R1 to R4 as many as you want, until your desire length, or you can repeat R1 to R4 then add a few rows of garter st, and another eyelet design from R1 to R4, something like this. You can customize this you want. Mesh Design is maybe easier, just repeat until your desire length. Make sure how long you want, then think about it! Good luck and Enjoy knitting!
Good day, Beginner's LUCKraft, may I know why you multiplied 3 X 37 to get your number of COs? Secondly, would it matter if I use the short tail CO rather than the long tail CO? My apologies for these questions but hopefully will get a respond from you soon. Excellent tutorial :)
Susan, for this pattern, you want to use somewhere around 100, so to use a little Algebra, you solve for "X" Kind of/Sort of. Another lady used 98, but it is a little different. It's a multiple of 3 stitches, but you have to have an even number with a multiple of 3. So, 3(X) = 111 + 1; So, 3(37) + 1 = 112; So, 111+1 = 112 for the Cast on. This lady chose 112, it's a good number to use & you can use any number, but you may have to add one to that number so the total is a multiple of 3. The number 111 is NOT a multiple of 3, but adding one to it equals 112 which "IS" a multiple of 3. I hope this helps. P.S. You can use more or fewer, as long as it's a multiple of 3 +1. Have fun with it.
Mary M Pfeffer Thank you for your response. I did try with two sets of the pattern and it came out great. I will be making this top as soon as I'm done with my WIP :)
Hi Susan! I am sorry to confuse you a bit about Cast on, I was just making sure my # is a multiplied of 3, that's is! Please ask me anything if you need :) Thank you for watching!!
Hi pls I want to do the same sweater but I want to know how many cotton balls I need coz I have 8 balls 50g each and the same size of thread that you are using.
My name is Samira and l wear size 10. Thax in advance waiting for your advice
Will
Thank you for your comment, I used 1 big ball of Loops & Threads Cambria yarn which is for 721yards / 7oz or 660m / 200g. I wear Size XS or S, and this summer top was a bit bigger, I should say this was in between size S and M. Enjoy knitting!
Hello, what size needles are you using? and what type of yarn?
Hi Tina, thank you for your comment! Needle is 3.75 mm and yarn is Loops & Threads Cambria, #2 Fine / Sport yarn. Enjoy knitting!
Thank you,I really appreciate it but I have a question.How can I arrange the shoulders' length or depth🤔???
Thank you for your comment and question. Before answering your question, I want to make sure what you mean by arrange the shoulders length or depth.
Shoulder means from right to left, and this is the boxy (square) tops, so the bottom and shoulder would be the same length.
You will knit this from bottom, so when you cast, that would be your shoulder to shoulder length as well.
And depth, I'm not quite sure what depth you're talking about...
Are you talking about the sleeves?
If you're talking about sleeve length and depth, length = when you add new cast for sleeve, that's the time you have to arrange how you want it.
If you want to have a shorter sleeve, add less new cast.
Important thing is that most likely you must have whole sts count with multiple of 3 +1 total, which is same as cast on # rule.
EX) I have 100 sts now, and I would like to add a short sleeve so, I will add 9 sts each side, 100 + 9 + 9 = 118
100 is multiple of 3 +1, so add just the number of multiply of 3
For depth, it's really up to you.
If you don't get it, or these are not the ones you want to know, please let me know with more details.
Good luck and Enjoy knitting!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft oh thank you very much.I haven't waited for a detailed answer in a quick way.I had meant how many stitches we must add for sleeves.(It depends,as you say.)I had thought there must be a formula.So I try to knit one for my sister-in-law's granddaughter...I started 80 stitches for a six years old girl's tee ,and I hesitated how many stitches I must add for sleeves.❤😍At last I added 30+30🤔🙈
Hello! I am fascinated with this and would like to do it. By any chance, do you have a written pattern also?
I'm sorry, this was a quite old project and I don't really have written pattern that I can upload it. Just a video
Hi. I absolutely love this summer top. So so pretty. However, as a beginner in knitting, I'm having trouble. I have followed your instructions to the stitch. On my 4th attempt, the same problem is happening. From the first set of stitch c and d, my work has decreased incredibly, to 15 stitches! Please can you help me, and let me know where I have gone wrong as I would love to be proud of myself, for completing a project and can actually wear myself.
Thank you for your comment! First of all, is it possible for you to send me a picture? I have a good guess that you might forget to do the yarn over. The yarn over creates a hole (design), at the same time, you increase stitch. In C design (most of lace designs), using the yarn over (increase the stitch) and PSSO which is pass the slip stitch over (DECREASE), creates a lace design and keep the stitch count same. So if you forget to do the yarn over, you will lose 1 stitch at the time. And this pattern, you will repeat it, so every time you forget to do the yarn over, you keep losing 1 stitch. A lot of people especially beginners tend to forget. If you still have your project, check the design, probably there are many places missing gaps.
Also are you using a security line when you knit this project? If you're using the security line, you don't have to start all over again.
The security line is to use a scrap yarn to put it through entire row, so whenever you make a mistake, you can just rip the project off until the security line. So you can save your project under the security line, do you understand? If not, let me know! And you can post your pic on my facebook page under same handle name! Good luck and Enjoy knitting!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft hi. Thank you for replying so quickly. Unfortunately I never took a photo of it, and I unravelled the whole piece! Also, I forgot my life line. I have started again, and am using a life line. I have just finished my dropped stitch section, which has turned out great. I have put another life line in, so if I make a mistake again, I wont need to unravel the whole piece. I am worried about the next section though, stitch c and stitch d. I have done these stitches before as practises, but never on a project that I would like to use. Fingers crossed, I can get it right this time round. Thank you again for your prompt help.
@@lizahealy977 I thought about your problem, and probably you make same mistake repeatedly. Watch my video very carefully, and practice. Next time, take a photo, then let me know! Don't give up! I'll help you :)
@@BeginnersLUCKraft hi, is there a way I can send you a photo of what I have achieved so far please? I know exactly where I went wrong, (apart from not having my life/security line). On stitch "c" I was doing k2tog, instead of separately on r3, 5, and 7. This was, because I had written notes down step by step from your video tutorial, but then misread my notes! As a beginner, I would like to send you a photo, but unsure of where/how to send it x
You can post your photo on my Facebook page “Beginners LUCKraft” or DM me by Instagram
The number 37 is what you said you multiplied by 3 in getting the stitches you needed?
OK now I got it, at the very beginning, I said "my number is 37 X 3 + 1 = 112"
I just wanted to let you guys know 112 is multiple of 3 plus 1, another word, (112 - 1) / 3 = 37
So 37 doesn't mean anything, I just want to tell people that's how you make sure about multiple of 3! Sorry to make you confused!
How did you get the number 37 that you X by 3?
Thanks for your comment, where is the number 37 coming from? Did I use 37 somewhere? I couldn’t find it, let me know!
Is it woollen yarn or cotton yarn?
Thank you for your comment :) It says 100% Acrylic. Enjoy Knitting!
Are those circular needles?
Yes those are circular needles, but you didn't have to use them for this project, because you're not knitting in round. I just like circular needle for anything, because it's more flexible :) Enjoy Knitting!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft thanks. I'm back to knitting after many years. I want to give this a try. Its a lovely pattern.
@@florenceobura3328 Good for you :) All my projects are pretty much for beginners. I also have some different pattern, and I am editing one more similar one. Anyway Enjoy knitting!
beautiful! the like thumb button is missing, both are not there!
May I ask what is the thumb button?
Does anyone know how number 37 that being multiplied by 3 come from doing?
Thanks for your comment, where is the number 37 coming from? Did I use 37 somewhere? I couldn’t find it, let me know!
Hi I would like to do it with long sleeves how do I go about it. Please let me know
Hi thank you for your comment. This is tough to answer in written. Yes you can do it, but how would you like to add your long sleeves? Just like a regular sweater? This top has a half length of sleeves, you can knit longer which means add more new stitches. however it's harder for you to decrease stitches towards to the wrist. All depends what you want. Let me know! Enjoy knitting
@@BeginnersLUCKraft thanks I really love long sleeve sweaters and I was wondering how to go about it am a beginner although I have already done one with the short hands
@@gracecentrabass4411 The easiest way is just to extend the sleeves from short to long. However you can't really decrease stitches towards to the wrist.
@@BeginnersLUCKraft thanks so much
@@gracecentrabass4411 Maybe next time, I'm going to knit a long sleeve version then :) Stay tuned!
how much yarn did you use?
Thank you for your comment, I used 1 big ball of Loops & Threads Cambria yarn which is for 721yards / 7oz or 660m / 200g. I wear Size XS or S, and this summer top was a bit bigger, I should say this was in between size S and M. Enjoy knitting!
How many inches was body before casting on for sleeves
How many inches from sleeves to very top edge
Thanks
Hi Nichole, thank you for your question. I believe 8" from bottom to the armpit, and another 7 to 8" from armpit to shoulder. However this is my size, it's really up to you. If you want to get this longer or shorter, you can do it. Enjoy knitting :)
Hi so for this i should make front and back separately that means 2 pieces separately
Good, so you just sew them together!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft no actually in ur video is for both front and back right and im usind xs size i also made 112 stitches is it good for me that both front and back is included in this 112 stitches???
@@balashweta9493 Oh I'm sorry, I've read your comment wrong. 112 stitches are only 1 side, so you have to make 2 pieces. Another word, total of 224 stitches. This garment was quite big for me, and I usually wear small size, I would say this was medium size. So you can make it smaller, but you should make a swatch and take a gauge to determine your cast on number! If you need may help, let me know!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft ok thank u so much but if i want to make s size how much stitches i should make it
@@balashweta9493 Well, I need your gauge number and measurement to find out your cast on number. Because I don't know how big you want to knit. I knitted this as a bikini top, so I wanted it big. So please give me your numbers.
Where can I find this pattern?
It's in the video. I don't have a written pattern for this project. I will try to write everything down in my description box someday.
For 112 stitches what size does this make?
I usually wear size XS or Small, but this one was a bit bigger than my usual size, so I would say, between small and medium size
For size xl how much should we cast on ??
If you can make a swatch and tell me your gauge and measurement, I can help you :)
@@BeginnersLUCKraft i have a 4ply cotton yarn. And measurement as in ?? Measurements of what ma'am ?
@@shimonamangal7360 My cast on # is based on my knitting tension and my desire measurement.
I usually knit a swatch 4" X 4" with the yarn and needles I am going to use.
Example I have 22 stitches within 4", and I would like to knit about 20" across which is my desire measurement.
4" vs 20" = 22 stitches vs [CAST ON # X]
My cast on # = 20X22/4=110
Then this project must start with the cast on # with multiple of 3 +1, so the closest # is 112.
This is how I find out the cast on #.
So you will need to knit a swatch 4" across , and you have to count how many stitch you have within that 4", this is your knitting tension.
Also your desire measurement how wide you want divided by 2, because you will have to knit 2 pieces in this project. So the widest part you want.
I hope you understand :)
Everybody has a different knitting tension, and different yarn and needle they want to use.
Let me know!
Where we can buy
Hi this is not for sale, I am very sorry :) Thank you for asking!
how many co for a size xxl...2x
Thank you for your question. I need your gauge and measurement if possible, otherwise I only guess which is no good. Here is the tutorial for swatch, it's super easy! ua-cam.com/video/baVuwr-U86U/v-deo.html The measurement I need is your bottom part, I guess the widest part, because this is knitted from bottom to top. Let me know!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft ok watched your master swatch and gauge video. i understand it now..thank you so much! you're a great teacher!
@@lisaa.5546 Good for you :) Any time you need my help, let me know! I'm thinking of knitting a similar type of summer top this Spring/Summer! Good luck and Enjoy knitting!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft thank you so much!
May we know the original designer of this pattern Ma'am?
Is this the written pattern by Erin Kate ARCHER? Or is it different ma'am? Your response will be appreciated.
www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cancun-boxy-lace-top
Thank you for your question. This was actually ordered by my friend and she gave me the pattern, not this one, HOWEVER, I checked this pattern BY Erin Kate, looks similar. Almost all the lace stitches are same, and orders are pretty much same. The difference are the number of stitches, size, the length and mine has sleeves.
So if you want to use her written pattern to knit this, I think you can do that, however it won't be exactly same as this one :) Good luck and Enjoy knitting!
@@BeginnersLUCKraft Thank you very much Ma'am. 💖 GOD Bless.❤️💖
Love the pattern but not the music.
Thank you for your comment, and I'm sorry about the music, lately I stop adding the music in the video, but I can't fix old ones. Enjoy knitting :)
