/u/JustSmoothers18,
.. I know this is a long shot, but does anyone know of a pattern similar to the cabled sweater Billy Crystal wears in When Harry Me Sally? I can’t get it out of my mind. I thought I’d save some time trying to recreate it, if a pattern similar enough already exists.

What to do with this yarn

Finally!

/u/mashlyne14,
.. After two years and at least 250 hours (very conservative guesstimate, I stopped keeping track over a year ago) it’s finished! The Ransom Sweater by Margaret and Penelope Wyche knit in Malabrigo Caprino in color Plomo. The sleeves are too long so I might have to deconstruct later and shorten them b…

Shrinkage

I knitted a hat, “Wurm” pattern w/Malabrigo Worsted for a friend. It’s a LITTLE bit too big for him, so I’m wondering if there’s a way to shrink it a bit without starting to felt the yarn? TIA

Ahh, the old accidentally knitting a sleeve inside out

No pics but yeah I got a few rows into a sleeve before realising it was working up inside out 😅 It made me determined to get better at frogging/tinking/using lifelines bc I swear I caused more problems by frogging.

Problem with payments for some items

craftyRenee1990,
been having issues making payment on the site through paypal for a long time, but i recently came across someone on a tele gram group and he actually did a great job fixing my paypal, so it turned out some times the issue is from the sender and less of the receiver.

Math help?

jmazurick,
I am having some trouble with a pattern assuming it is knitting math which I am horrible at! I am making the child size and the pattern says to omit 12 stitches when casting on, 84 total. I believe that the pattern is based on the adult size of 96 stitches when casting on. I get to the part of the …

Seed stitch tension...

/u/animal-neighbour,
.. Just learned the basics of knitting and currently making swatches with different stitches...is seed stitch supposed to be this full of holes, or is my tension too loose? I'm generelly a very tight knitter and crocheter, so if so I am a bit baffled. (Some holes more noticable than others). I feel li…

Itarsia. You CAN do it (tears mid way may happen)

/u/BeavyBee,
.. A couple of years ago, on a mad whim I decided I could design and knit a bespoke cushion cover with a Magic: The Gathering Arena for a dear friend, knowing nothing of designing, intarsia and indeed MTG Arena. But why would that stop my overconfident brain. I used stitchfiddle to design the front (t…
