I made your sweater using worsted weight yarn and a size 5.0 mm needle. It is a toddler size, like you said and I love it. Now, I want to make a tiny one! Any suggestions, needle size, I only use worsted or chunky yarn. I do not like knitting with thin yarn since I like immediate satisfaction! Tiny yarn takes forever! Do you have this pattern written out for newborn size? Any help would be greatly appreciated! 💛Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13994708.post-58381119265769915712021-02-15T23:09:52.408-05:002021-02-15T23:09:52.408-05:00Does this pattern have to be done on circular need...Does this pattern have to be done on circular needles?Midinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13994708.post-2665517958605744952018-04-21T11:46:10.915-04:002018-04-21T11:46:10.915-04:00I'm very enjoyed for this blog.

You could make it longer as is for a sweater dress shape, or even increase at the sides a couple of times to get an A-line shape. And you're right about the sleeves, you could do as much stockinette as you wanted before finishing in ribbing - that's exactly how raglan shaping works (it's so efficient!).<br /><br />Good luck!<br />>Sam<br />sam lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436015742236304907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13994708.post-45166921012809993442015-04-24T13:12:29.980-04:002015-04-24T13:12:29.980-04:00@Unknown Hi Alisa!

Depending on your yarn and needle combo, you may not notice the missing inch - the vest would just have a little negative ease and fit a bit snug on your little guy (which can be pretty cute). But it's certainly possible to add stitches to the circumference! Probably the easiest way is to add 4 stitches when you're dividing for the body. When it says CO16, simply CO18 instead. This is done twice, so you'll end up with 4 extra stitches - meaning you'll have 96 sts total when you begin to work in the round. That will get you closer to a 21" circumference without affecting what you need to pick up for the armhole bands.<br /><br />I hope that helps! And definitely reach out if you have any other questions!<br />>Sam<br />sam lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436015742236304907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13994708.post-35754532279053901002015-04-21T21:55:48.362-04:002015-04-21T21:55:48.362-04:00Hi there!

KFB means you increase one stitch by knitting into the front and then the back of the next stitch on your needle. Check out this video to see how it's done: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILcTB5hc0XM<br /><br />And then the marker question, sorry it wasn't clear. The idea is to place a marker between the stitches as opposed to on a stitch. So in this case on your needle you would have 6 stitches followed by a marker, followed by one stitch, followed by another marker. As you work on the vest your increases happen on either side of these markers but that single stitch in between always stays as one stitch.<br /><br />I hope that makes more sense.

As I mentioned to Andrea, this approach helps make the armholes deep enough because you need to add length to the front and back of the vest before you start working in the round again.<br /><br />Hope this makes it easier.

If you start with 64 stitches then have 6 increase rows (6 of the R8/R9 sequence) that adds 8 stitches each time. 64 + 48 should leave you with 112. But 2 extra stitches is no big deal, depending on where they're sitting. Would you be able to divide the 114 stitches you have into 26 (sleeve) / 31 (front) / 26 (sleeve) / 31 (back)?sam lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436015742236304907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13994708.post-37354453377002429282013-11-08T20:21:15.528-05:002013-11-08T20:21:15.528-05:00@Andrea Hi Andrea!

When you've purled the 30 stitches you turn your work and then continue flat on those 30 stitches for 5 stockinette rows (so knit a row, purl a row, knit a row, purl a row, knit a row and then break yarn). Essentially to make the armholes deep enough, you need to add length to the front and back of the vest but this has to happen before you start working in the round again.<br /><br />I hope that helps.
