    Runs Small

    I made this for my baby and used the 6 mos size. My baby is 8 weeks old, and the sweater doesn’t fit. It’s too tight for me to feel comfortable putting him in it again. I also felt it ran long. I know babies and sizing can be all over the place which is why I didn’t decrease more stars…but still I would have thought it would fit. Also, make sure to bind off using a technique that will give some stretch!

    • Thank you for providing this feedback! Gauge is very important to achieve the proper fit. For this pattern, if you met gauge of 18 sts and 24 rows = 4” [10 cm] with larger needles in stocking stitch, your sweater circumference at the chest should have been approximately 20.5 inches. Checking the measurement of your baby can be helpful as well to make sure you are choosing the correct size. We also encourage you to adjust the length if the pattern's measurement is too long for the recipient. And we appreciate the reminder to use a stretchy bind off!

    Yoke begins with 8 rows. Last yoke instructions labeled NEXT ROW says to purl on the wrong side. Row 1 was labeled right side. This row is also an odd row, so how can it be on the wrong side??What am I not understanding?

    Before dividing pattern says work 1(3,4,7) rounds even. Does this mean work 4 rnds (for 18 month size) like previous rounds ie knit 1 rnd, knit to markers and inc, knit 1 rnd, knit to markers and inc. If so, I will have 116 stitches for body not 100??
