    Amy herzog has a course on craftsy with material that is in the knit to flatter book. It is amazing if you haven't tried it.

    Love this! You’ve given us so much to consider when adjusting things to our preferences/fit needs. But the thing that I REALLY need to know is… WHAT ARE YOU WEARING?!?! That top is gorgeous and I need to knit it! 😂

    Fantastic content! I'm very pear-shaped (flat chest after mastectomy and a belly), so shaping around my stomach is something I'm trying on my current project. I think I'll try vertical darts. This video is well-timed because I've just gotten to the point where I have to make some adjustments to the pattern. Thank you for sharing your resources!

    Really interesting video, I couldn't wait to watch it ! I did not understand everything, but I'm also still a relatively beginner knitter. I'm sure in a few months (and with my first sweater finished) I will understand more what you said. so far I have crocheted 2 sweaters and I had to lengthen the body for both, but they had no shaping so it was easy. I also had to modify the sleeve because I guess I have bigger arms than the pattern is made for, so I had to increase faster. I kinda winged it, but made sure to do the same on both sleeves. (hopefully my English is not too bad here)

      Sounds like you have the basics of modifications down already!

    Thank you for this video. Like you I don't like high things on my neck. I've found a few tops I've wanted to knit but make them v-neck instead of round or crew & have thought there has got to be a way to do it & have been told several times its going to be to hard for you. Just find another top you like with a v-neck instead. Even though these people that have told me this have done it themselves. It's so frustrating

    • @NerdyKnitting
      @NerdyKnitting  Год назад +1

      It's not the easiest fix but it's certainly possible! I forgot to address the neckline width in the video - it's a little more difficult to adjust (because you are also changing how many stitches you have in the shoulders). But it's definitely possible to adjust the front neckline shape!

    What about men's sweater patterns what measurement should one use to get correct size

    • @NerdyKnitting
      @NerdyKnitting  Год назад

      I would still start with the high chest - you want a good fit in the shoulders first, no matter the body type or shape.

      I just checked her website - it looks like all the articles have been removed, unfortunately.

    What yarn will you be using for the sweater workshop?

    • @NerdyKnitting
      @NerdyKnitting  Год назад

      I'm using Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Superwash in a worsted weight.

      Great episode! I’m totally going to try adding a v-neck to a sweater.
