thanks for sharing your pattern ! Mine is done and it was a great and interesting adventure to do it ! A lot of technics and a lot of pleasure ! Thanks a lot !
Hi, Hilary--I'm knitting up Safire, and I'm eager to wear it. Possibly I'm a dunce, but I can't get the increases to add up. For size Small, I count (60 cast on sts)+(24 times 8 increases for the raglan shaping)+(18 times 2 increases for the neckline shaping)=288 sts... but the pattern says I should have only 252 sts. Please HELP!
Fantastic pattern, thanks for sharing!
@margaretpollock: I was having the same issue, and I believe it is a typo. It looks like those totals are for just the raglan increases, and do not include the front increases.
On the next page, adding the total body sts with the sts for the arm, you get the correct amount. (172 + 58 + 58 = 288)
@margaretpollock -- I have a memory of responding to your comment last month, but now I can find no record of it! I apologize for not getting back to you. The 252 stitch count on that page is the number of sts you should have after the raglan shaping is complete -- because for size S you don't start the neckline shaping until after the raglan shaping is done, there are no neckline stitches to add. The wording makes it confusing...I should have said "Total sts after raglan shaping is complete (including sts increased on fronts for sizes L-4XL only). The stitch count is correct on the next page.
@Kyrga -- Thank you for your response! And I'm sorry you had an issue with this, too! I'll be sure to change the wording the next time I update the pattern.
@Hilary: Actually, I may have been mistaken in my previous comment! I am pretty terrible at following instructions >.<
Sweater turned out fabulous in the end though! Thanks again for the pattern =)
@Anonymous -- So glad you were happy with how it turned out! :)
