Good morning 🌄🌞 blessings ☕ awesome 👍🏾 thank you 👍🏾

[@CherilynQ]

Thank you! 🥰

[@yitch123]

Hi, if I use mohair yarn and it is much thinner than what you use, what should I do in this case?

[@RitaYin1209]

what length of circular needles did you use for this? thx!

[@normawas3114]

Thanks

[@jaddjswb4779]

Hiiii! Love this tutorial! My balaclava start to look decent!

[@CherilynQ]

Hi! I think I went down 2 mm, but it's more of a personal preference.

[@PokeSpe32]

hii!!! i would love to try your pattern, i would like to ask, what beand are your neddles? and what is the length of the wire? for search the materials

[@CherilynQ]

Hi! I got my needles from either Aliexpress or Ebay, can't remember which one. It's a set of different size needles and 4 cords of different lengths. Search "interchangeable circular needles set"

[@gwendolynlovegood2658]

Hi, can you tell me when you skip increasing the knit side do you also skip pearl side? Because I did it and It turned out a little bit bigger than I expected hahah

[@CherilynQ]

Hi, I didn't increase on the purl side, only on the knit side.

[@vegan.3176]

nailart selfmade?

[@mothernature88888]

Can you tell me please why you skip every 4th stitch when you worked around the top panel? 🙌

[@CherilynQ]

Sure! If a stitch was a perfect square, you would pick up every stitch. However, since it's not, skipping every 4th stitch (3rd stitch in some patterns) makes sure the picked-up stitches aren't too scrunched up if you know what I mean.

Türkçe yazarmısıniz bizde yapım çok güzel ölçüleri verin tesekkürler

[@MTKKNITS]

So for the part where you pick up the stitches do you pick up 3 .. skip 1 … all the way down the row ?

[@CherilynQ]

Yes, exactly.

[@MTKKNITS]

@@CherilynQ 🤎 Yayayayayay okay I had to pause my work I wasn’t sure I made it to far to quit lol

[@MTKKNITS]

@@CherilynQI’m having trouble using the double point needles and where to use them after I pick up the stitches, ( granted is my first time using them, but I’m Still willing to learn)

[@CherilynQ]

@@MTKKNITS It’ll be like how I explained at the beginning of the video. Use 3 or 4 needles to form a circle then 1 more needle to knit with. I feel it’s hard to describe through text. Maybe look up tutorials on this.

[@ShettikkaWoods-jl8iq]

Got it ❤❤❤❤

[@sarahfrancisco4879]

I love it thank u ! How many skeins did you use ?

[@CherilynQ]

I used 2 skeins but only a bit of the 2nd skein for the front ribbing.

[@sarahfrancisco4879]

Thank u for ur answer, was it 50g skeins ?@@CherilynQ

[@CherilynQ]

@@sarahfrancisco4879 100 g per skein.
