shortening a sweater
A couple of questions :
1) Is it weird that my pattern says this: Cont even until work from beg measures 27, ending with RS facing for next row for the back, BUT then this: Cont even until work from beg measures 24, ending with RS facing for next row? ie, is it strange that there seems to be a 4 inch difference between the back and the front? 2) I measured my brother (for whom I'm knitting this sweater) and it seems the sweater at 28 inches is going to be way to big for him (he has a short torso). Is there anyway I can fudge with the numbers so that the finished measurement is around24 (and not 28? the pattern doesn't give finshed measurements (only finished chest measurements). |
