I do have a questions -- I am working on the hood -- I have stitches on the needles from the front neck and back neck edge stitches- at this point i have the 94 stitches which tells me in the pattern -- and to mark the center of the hood. I am about to start the increase for the hood -- when increasing - its say to work to marker -- is that at the shoulders on each end - or the center of the hood marker.. If its the center of the hood marker -- it says work to stitch marker - m1,{(work 0 st)due to being size 39} m1, then slip - . there is only 1 marker. Do i make 2 stitches after the marker. Am I doing something wrong or just not reading it well. Thanks Hi Connie

working on the sweater — I am loving it and cant wait to have it completed so i can show it off ….

I do have a questions —

I am working on the hood — I have stitches on the needles from the front neck and back neck edge stitches- at this point i have the 94 stitches which tells me in the pattern — and to mark the center of the hood. I am about to start the increase for the hood — when increasing – its say to work to marker — is that at the shoulders on each end – or the center of the hood marker..
If its the center of the hood marker — it says work to stitch marker – m1,{(work 0 st)due to being size 39} m1, then slip – . there is only 1 marker. Do i make 2 stitches after the marker. Am I doing something wrong or just not reading it well.

Thanks

I am at the area of the 2 strand band -- in the pattern it says (sl1, wyif, k1) -- if i slip one then bring the yarn forward around the needle, then K1, this leaves a yarn over hole which will increase my stitch count for the row...or if placed in front that just rolls the stitch forward ... Can you explain the wyif, please? I am working on this pattern and so far so great….

After working the first 4 inches of the body, the "Next row, dec row (RS)" states to work to 2 sts before 1st dart marker, k2tog, sm, work to 2nd dart marker, sm, ssk, work to 2 sts before 3rd dart marker, k2tog,sm, work to 4th dart marker, sm ssk, work to end." It would seem to me that if the left and right sides of the body should be equal - the instruction should be read that the 1st and 4th darts have the k2tog and not the 1st and 3rd. Can you please verify or advise? Thank you. I am working the pattern of this beautiful hoodie and have a question. After working the first 4 inches of the body, the

My yarn did not come in multiple skeins but wound on one cone. I had the opportunity to design the yarn myself and it is wound by weight onto one cone. Before I begin, I want to set aside and wind into a ball enough yard to complete the doubled woven section. I plan making this in the size 43 1/4. BTW, is the bust measurement used the finished garment measurement, or the wearer's bust measurement? Thank you. I've seen this finished, a beautiful design.

I have picked up the stitches held on holders from the left, back and right neck but cannot figure out what to do with the stitches that form the rounded part of the neck edge that were created as the neck was shaped. Shouldn't I pick up something off the edge between where I have picked up the stitches? I am knitting this hoodie and all has gone well till I come to knitting the hood.

One quick question, when you specify m1 in the increase row at the bottom of page 2, is it m1L or m1R? I’m so enjoying knitting this sweater and the yarn (Tosh Merino Light) is amazing.

Simply Gorgeous! I might use Rowan Cashcotton 4ply for it or Rowan 4 ply Soft. Both fingering weight. It's too bad Madelinetosh couldn't time a better release with the pattern to capitalize on sales!
