    Great stitch, horrible pattern

    Instructions are very confusing how to attach the sleeves to the body. There is no diagram to even guess the intentions. Gage is out of whack. I am stuck in the middle and think that i will just “wing” it to the end and stash it away so no one sees it. 😢

    • You ask two different questions. In response to the question about gauge, for a garment such as this one, it is VERY important so that you get the desired fit. This cardi is designed to have 1-2 inches of positive ease (that means it is should not be a tight fit. The gauge is 4.5 st/in in the stockinette sections.)  If your gauge is different, you will have issues with the fit. Next, we are happy to explain how to attach the sleeves. The instructions are given in the section Divide for the fronts and back. You should already have worked two sleeves, and bound off stitches on either side for the underarm. Those stitches should be on a holder. Next you divide the fronts, and again, bind off stitches for the underarm. (The sleeve and body underarms will be sewn together at the end during the finishing step). Specifically, you add the sleeve in the second 'next row' instructions. You should already be working on a circular needle. First, you will knit across the right front stitches, and place a marker. Next in the space where you cast off this stitches for the underarm, you will knit across the stitches for one sleeve and place a marker. Make sure you are working on the right side of the fabric. Now, knit across the stitches for the back, and place another marker. Next, in the space where you cast off this stitches for the underarm, you will knit across the stitches for the second sleeve and place a marker. And finally, knit across the stitches for the left front. It may feel a bit tight working the first few rows after joining all the stitches together.

    Nice pattern

    Very nice pattern but some steps were incorrect and needed some imagination… pay close attention to the instructions for the body as they are confusing.
