Knitting Tutorial / V neck Cropped Vest / Part 1

[@ltlwlwl5057]

I wish you spoke to us. I love your Knitting knowledge and skill. Since, you don't speak to us..... it would be really helpful if you put the garments pattern in the 'Description' area. I think you'll get more followers if they can access your patterns easier. Happy Knitting!

This is so perfect for Midari Ikishima from Kakegurui! I will definitely use this pattern for my cosplay ^w^ Edit: I finished it after 2 weeks of work(I am a slow human xP) And it looks really nice for my 3rd ever knitting experience! I am very proud! Thank you for the Video ^w^ (I had to upsize it so if anyone has any questions I'll do my best to help ya!)

[@jayniallen8776]

Hello! I saw in the description that this is for a size small. I’m a medium- large, how do I go about making this my size?

[@gothichinata4332]

I just did the math since I have to upsize myself: Cast on more Stitches that fit around yourself, make sure that number is even. (example 200 instead of the original 156) Knit until you have your desired length, when it comes to setting the markers, divide your stitch amount by 4 (ex. marker, k100, M, k50, M, k50) And continue Knitting as in the Tutorial. I didn't try it myself yet but that is how I will do it once my yarn arrives. The baseline is just simply: Make sure you can divide it by 4!

[@jayniallen8776]

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely try this. Hope it works!💕

[@gothichinata4332]

@@jayniallen8776 tell me how well it works then! I am still pretty much a knitting noob xD (a knoob? hmm...)

[@TinieMx]

I have never knitted a vest before, but I really want to try following your tutorial. You're going quite fast when making armholes etc, but I really want to learn the different techniques (I have never knitted a sweater either). Why do you have to undo 7 stitches when making the armholes? I would love some info/explanation when doing these things.

[@rialammens1584]

I love your video’s but where can i find the sizes you make 😊

[@knitwit014]

It looks nice, but i dont know what size it is and the music is too loud and distracting.

[@brechtreintsema8969]

Hello! I'm slightly confused. I thought L1-L4 should kind of be the same as B1-B4 because a shirt is supposed to by symmetrical. Though, L1 says to start each line with a slip stitch, and B1 says to start each line with a knit. Now the number of stitches I had after the B rounds are not the same as after the L rounds. Can you clear this up? :-)

[@kusumaningrum5165]

same with me. we have to halve the number of stitches on the front part..

[@sallynutus8011]

if im knitting 172 stitches, how many stitches should I cast off for the armholes and neckhole? 😊

Hello, I noticed at C1, it says to do skpo, but in the video it looks like you are doing k2tog. Which one should we use for the pattern? Thank you for this tutorial!

Hey. It should be k2tog definitely. Thank you so much.

Hi Aura! A bit confused with 12:36 My stitch count to the next marker is 78, while yours seems to be half. Am I missing another cast-off step?

[@handmadebyaura64]

Hey Ary. I will check maybe I messed up something 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@handmadebyaura64]

I made timelaps in the comments. Maybe it will be easier to understand. I was placing markers 2 x orange markers represents armholes and yelow marker is a neckhole. And where is orange markers i cast off 7 stitches so in total 14 stitches and they where separating front from back. so where is front you will see that you have marker which is separating left strap from right. I hope it makes sence :)

what is the recommended needle size for yarn that you have used? And if you know,how much metres of yarn have u used?

[@joycewhist4862]

Love this design - thank you for the video. I am brand new to knitting an I'm a little confused as to which panel you are working on. I have slowed the video down several times to count the stitches hoping that would provide a clue. When knitting the B1-B4 are you working on the "back" panel? When you are knitting the "C" series, is that a new panel or a continuation of B? Thank you -

[@lizzied737]

She has the timestamps of each section of the vest in the description. I think the A,B,C etc. labelling is just so you can do the "repeat A1-A4" without her having to repeat herself.

[@jordynsincere]

I’ve been crocheting for years but just started knitting. I know that this is a stockinette stitch ( I think ) but it says to knit 9 inches. Just straight knit ? Or knit and purl? I thought knitting all rows would make a garter stitch

[@mitrazaker7483]

If it says knit in a pattern it means only knit, no purls

[@vilkask4372]

To create the stockinette stitch in the round for knitting, you only need to do knit stitches (no purl) as there is no need to turn the work and you are essentially knitting a tube. However if you are using straight needles, then you would 'knit the knits' and 'purl the purls' by turning the work.

[@Felicity2121]

That’s what I thought. I had knitted in the round before and it came out as a garter stitch! So don’t know!! Did you do it?

[@a__zz__34]

Your essentially not turning your rounds when working in the round so you just knit straight!
