Dropped raglan and I'm about ready to quit
/u/PoppyToffcorn,
.. I'm obviously in floods of tears right now. I was one the last 2 rounds of increases before putting the arms on hold and my ✨wonderful✨ dog went after a sleepy wasp, taking my whole project with her. Is there any way to rescue this? I'm a very beginner knitter (normally a crocheter) and am good at …

ISO pattern for this JEAN PAUL GAULTIER Conical Bra Turtleneck Crop Sweater
CrochetAllGay,
Because I want to make it rather than pay $1500?!?!? But it makes a STATEMENT. I’m a beginner knitter/crochet-er and wondering if anyone advanced and uninspired enough with their PIPs to want to try and create a pattern for this, or even just some tips and tricks to get this similar look. It looks …

Hand washing knits in washer
monroepatternco,
Hello, I have been noticing my hands are having a hard time washing my knits, particularly squeezing out water. A few years back we lived in a house that had a hand wash cycle on the machine and I was able to do my sweaters in that and then air dry. I am now looking for a new machine but can’t find…

Truly reversible sweater?
chrisdee,
I’m working on a top down raglan pullover and I am really loving the texture of both sides of the fabric. It has me trying to figure out if there is a way to do the underarm pickup in a way that is smooth and truly reversible on both inside and outside of the garment. Any ideas or techniques?

Pattern for “City on a Lake” shawl
woolgtherer,
I saw the shawl “City on a Lake” displayed and am looking for the pattern. It looks as if the designer “Burning River Knits has shut down her account but the design does pop up in Ravelry but with no link to purchase. I am most anxious to make this shawl - does anyone know how I might get it? Thank…

Measuring and Blocking
Annieqst,
I’ve often wondered when a pattern says “knit until garment measures X inches.” Does that mean measured as is, unblocked? A wool garment, unblocked and in process, may measure more when blocked and will measure more when slightly stretched. Case in point: I’m making a sweater where the underarm mea…

An update on the jumper I'm trying to knit before Christmas:
/u/GordonGoodStuff,
.. There's no real reason I'm knitting this before Christmas. It's not going to be a present; I just enjoy the motivation of a time crunch (thanks, ADHD!). I've been knitting this on and off for about 3-4 hours a day for the last month, with plenty of breaks to rest my hands. I think I might actually …

Redemption knit
/u/Mr_Original_,
.. On my last post I was asking for advice as to whether I should restart. I ended up redoing it as the more I looked the more unhappy I was, this ended up being the finished article which I’m much more happy with and has been gifted to my new nephew.

Help With Hood Pattern
museumsarah,
I made the hood and I am to the point where I have to pick up stitches, which I can do. I just do not understand what is meant by “overlap” and pick up 5 on the brim. do I do this on the wrong side then? I understand the 18/1/18 part, but it is the 5-brim I do not understand. This pattern is on ets…
