Hi Jessica, why is it taking you so long to answer people's questions. This pattern doesn't make any sense and you are saying it's for beginners.
I can't seem to be able to print this pattern. Canit be done?
Thanks.
I’m in Australia and trying to work out your needle size - are you patterns metric, US mm or UK mm ?
When you say 4mm is that American or metric as 4mm metric is equivalent to 6mm US
I really want to start knitting this fro my grandson so I hope you will respond quickly
Thank you
Is this site no longer operating therefore no one responds ??
Having the same problem
Having the same problem! there is no response and i want to know what she means by cast off 3+2
Hi I would like to know the same cast off 3 +2 what does this mean.
Cast off 3 on that row then on the next row cast of 2 I think
The US does not use metric, the needle size is 4 which is a 3.5 mm needle.
4mm needles are metric, the US size would be size 6 not 6mm, the millimeter needle would be significantly larger than the size 6 US needle.
Hi, I'm currently knitting the child's jumper but as a beginner am confused by the following instruction:
Cast off 2+2+1 stitches in every row at both sides of the neck.
Does this mean cast off 5 stitches?
I can't get a reply either.. do you think it means cast off three in the next row on either side and then 2 in the following row - which equals 10 stitches. That adds upBut why not just say this??
Cast off 2 on that row then on the next row cast of 2 then one on next row 2 then 2 on the next row then 1 then 1 on the last row. I cast off on the next row as you cant cast off on the end of a row. I think my sleeves have turned out ok
when you say cast off "When the sleeve measures 20 cm, cast off 1+3+2 stitches at both sides 2+2+11 times for the armhole." what do you actually mean - i can't understand this....help.
I really want to knit this for my grandson and i am a beginner.
Thank you
I really need the 2+2+1 explained. I am not a beginner and I have never seen instructions written that way. I would really want to knit that sweater asap. Thanks in advance.
I really love this little sweater. Can you let me know how many stitches need to be cast on for the other sizes and would you say that size 6 is for a four year old. Plus could you explain the cast off 2+2+1 as mentioned by other people. Thank you
Hi I would like to know the same cast off 3 +2 what does this mean.
