I’ve only made two scarves but I love love love your work and channel and I’m excited to be growing my skills and tapping into a community!!!

    thanks, loved the pattern! how did you make the round cords in the beginning?

    it looks so cute! can i ask what yarn you used for the light blue bonnet?

    • @a.lexakari
      @a.lexakari  5 місяців тому +1

      "air" by drops design!

    Immediately ordered needles this is going to be the second thing i knit after my shitty scarf lol

  • @qhode616
    @qhode616 5 місяців тому +1

    am i able to make this with only one string of yarn (not double) and a 5 + 6 mm needle?

    • @a.lexakari
      @a.lexakari  5 місяців тому

      that probably wouldn't create the right size - the best way to check is to make a gauge swatch from the instructions in the pattern to see if your materials will work

    This is such a great tutorial. Usually I find them super confusing (bloody beginner here 🥲) thanks so much!

    is it absolutely essential to switch needles for the ribbing?

    • @a.lexakari
      @a.lexakari  4 місяці тому

      it would still work without changing, but I like to use smaller needles to make sure the ribbing stays snug on the head.

    Is the pattern only available in UK currency? I’d really like to purchase it 😢

      On my site it will only show up in £ but you can check out with a card from any country:)

    hey! love this pattern - if I can meet gauge would 1 strand chunky yarn be an OK substitution?

    • @a.lexakari
      @a.lexakari  6 місяців тому +1

      thanks! yes, as long as gauge is correct that should work fine :)

    Is it for children? I bought the pattern, did everything according to the instructions, but it's soooo small!

    • @a.lexakari
      @a.lexakari  5 місяців тому +3

      no it's for adults - your knit may be quite tight, but you can loosen the bonnet and make it bigger by blocking it to your desired size
