I hope that you still check back occasionally for comments and or questions. I knit the front up to the same height as the back, assuming that at that point I'd be doing the neckline but it sounds like you're starting the neckline many rows lower rather than doing it after matching the height of the back. I'm stuck Lastly, I accidentally made the armholes 9" not 8" (size small - i think I did the 104 cast on) and don't know how many extra rows and/or stitches to do to make up for it. Hope you can help! Thanks somuch. It's a great video :D

Hello! I always have trouble with doing the back since my stitches seem to turn the other way around. I’m a little bit lost with the second round of the back.

Could I use 80cm 9mm needles instead of changing to the different sizes and use magic loop?

In the "joining in the round part" the camera cut off the part after passing one stitch over the other, so I couldn't see exactly where that stitch landed. Isn't this just like binding off, and you lose a stitch when you do it? I did what I thought I saw, and ended up down by one stitch at the end of the first row. I decided to kfb on the last stitch to make it up and keep going, but I know this isn't ideal. I must have missed something that the camera cut off in the "joining in the round" section.

What size needle for the arm

So just checking, the sleeves end up being 16in around? If I needed to make this bigger how would I go about doing this? Making a bigger hole in the sweater for the sleeves instead of the 8ins?

Hi there! You can use whatever yarn you’d like, you’ll just have to adjust your cast on stitches because your gauge will be much smaller. If you knit the sweater with smaller needles and thinner yarn following the instructions, your sweater will be too small so you’ll just have to adjust it. Best of luck to you and happy knitting!

Hi Ashley, after the ribbing, you asked to do a few more rounds of knitting with the first color. I am a new knitter and I am confused about why the knit round is not followed by the purl round? Wouldn't it lead to the garter stich?

@AshleyLillisKnits

When you knit in the round, you complete stockinette stitch by knitting every round. To get garter stitch in the round, you knit one round then purl one round. It’s opposite of knitting flat! Hope that helps!
