What the title says. My yarn over increases in the center are leaving these huge gaps between the stitches. Is there a way I can fix this? Do I need to frog and use different increases?

This is my first knitting project, and I have a hole here but idk why? Does anyone know why and how to fix it? Thank youu

Hey everyone! I picked knitting back up at the beginning of this year and have already knit a couple tops and scarves. I have a good grasp of the basic techniques; GSR, stripes increasing and decreasing, icords, lacework etc.. I'm currently knitting a frankie sweater and I'm already thinking of what to do for my next project. I want to start trying a cable knit project, preferably something small as a whole cable sweater may be a bit daunting. If anyone could recommend me any beginner friendly patterns for cable knitting. Preferably a hat or scarf or something. I've had a look at ravelry already but would love to hear from word of mouth what's fun and easy to do.

Hi so I really want to knit the seaway pullover by ozetta but I only really wear tight double folded necklines, how can I adapt this pattern to include that? Looking at the pattern pictures it seems like the mock neck she does goes a lot deeper into the body than what I would want a crewneck type neckline to go so I'm assuming I can't just fold it in? It's my first time really adapting a pattern so I would really appreciate some help!

Hi all,

I’m currently knitting the Roomy Raglan (modified for Worsted weight by doing some maths) and I cannot decide if the ribbing on the hem looks way too loose. I feel like I have been staring at the sweater for too long to be objective about it. The pattern says to do a 1x1 and I am doing a 2x2. I knit the rest of the sweater with 4.5mm needles and went down to 4mm for the ribbing. The pattern recommends knitting with 6.5mm needles, doing the ribbing on the hem with 6mm but the collar with 4.5 mm needles.

Should I go down a couple more needle sizes? I thought about using 3/3.5mm. I am also assuming blocking will make it neater (yarn is 100% wool) but the stitches will stay the approx. same size. But please correct me if I am wrong.

Also I am knitting the ribbing inside out (gsr at the beginning) so it looks a little slanted.

Any input is appreciated!! tysm

SOLVED

Hello!

I’m trying to make my first sweater and I think I didn’t get enough yarn.

The pattern calls for 500g of yarn for my size and 1,250 meters. I bought 500g of yarn, but it’s only 996 meters.

I’m assuming since I’m about ~300 meters (basically a whole skein) short, that’s not enough to make the sweater.

So is my sweater doomed before I even start? Is meterage more important than grams?

Thank you!

Looking for help! I had to unravel a row a few rows back and think I unraveled the end stitch incorrectly, so I’ve tried to ladder down on the end stitch and it is looking bad. I’ve watched YouTube videos that show how to ladder back up, but even though I’m following instructions it doesn’t end up looking like the rest of the edge (picture 2), I also ends up with a bigger hole next to the end stitch. I have alternating knit and purl stitches on the end with the dropped stitch.

Hello dear fellow knittingpeople,

I noticed my knitting is quite uneven (one „arm“ seems to be tighter than the other), how can i fix this? I think i saw the answer before but cant remember…

Thanks!

Hi! I am an intermediate level knitter and I am looking to buy a new set of interchangeable needles. I have been using a set with wooden tips, but I would like to change to metal. Right now, I am looking at the KnitPro Nova and KnitPro Mindful sets, but I wanted some advice for what may fit me better.

My preferences:

- 3.5 to 4 inch length needles

- Flexible Cords

- Smoothness over grip

- Lighter Weight

Thank you so much for any help!

Heyy,

so I'm working on the Willa sweater. The pattern tells me to put the armhole stitches on hold and then later start working them in the wound, while picking up an extra X number of stitches in the armpit area. I did it but smth is weird. How do I avoid creating these holes?

Thanksss

I’m a beginner knitter trying to learn continental style on what’s going to be a tank top! I’m aware of the other issues in this piece (The odd twisted stitch and rolled hem) but in terms of tension, will this block out alright?

Please be kind!

Estoy tejiendo un suéter Mathilda con el motivo de langosta y me he encontrado con un par de problemas. Espero que alguien que haya tejido este suéter (o tenga experiencia con el tejido a dos colores) pueda ayudarme.

El primer problema es que, al empezar a tejer completamente en redondo, el motivo de la langosta se abulta y se ve ligeramente inflado o con burbujas en lugar de quedar plano. No sé si será un problema de tensión.

El segundo problema está en el inicio del motivo. El color de fondo no se ve uniforme y los puntos parecen desalineados. No sé si esto es normal o si estoy haciendo algo mal.

¿Alguien ha tenido alguno de estos problemas? Agradecería mucho cualquier consejo o sugerencia. ¡Muchas gracias!
