"You are knitting 4 identical panels, sewing the cast off edges together to create the shoulders, then sewing a seam down the middle back and both sides to create the sweater. The blocking is to ensure all the pieces come out to the same size before sewing, the collar/neck is simply folded back at the neck line."
Lisa
"The pattern calls for a 15mm 19US needle not a 15 US needle which would be a 10 mm as noted here on all free knitting."
Lisa
"This pattern was in an email for "brand new" patterns, but the yarn has been discontinued for 8-10 years."
Lisa
"You could follow the directions as written but change the knit 5" to knit 7 to 8" and just not do the fold at the bottom, since typically slouch hats are at least 12" tall, however this yarn is a bulky and the recommended substitute yarn is super bulky on very small needles, so even altering the pattern is probably not going to give you the result you want."
Lisa
"The pattern specifies which yarn to use for each section, so when you see "with yarn b" in the instructions, that is the yarn you will use until you are instructed to change to a different colour. The pattern also specifies which stitches to use line by line for each section. Based on your questions this may be a pattern that you may not be quite ready for since it is an intermediate pattern that you do need to have a decent amount of knitting experience to complete the project."

Broken Rib Cowl and Headband

Broken Rib Cowl and Headband

"Get ready for winter with this broken rib cowl and headband duo. Made with super bulky yarn and fat needles, you'll have this all knit up in a couple of evenings. And the best thing is it's easy enough for beginners. This knitting pattern uses simple knit and purl stitches making it a fast and easy knitting project. With the holidays just around the corner you might want to knit more than one."

Beginner

Knitting Needle Size15 or 10 mm

Yarn Weight(6) Super Bulky/Super Chunky (4-11 stitches for 4 inches)

Gauge2.5 stitches, 4 rows, 1 inches. 2.5 stitches and 4 rows per inch

Materials List

  • 2 Skeins Super Bulky Yarn
  • US 15 (10mm) straight knitting needles

For the cowl I added 2 extra stitches for the edges, and on every row I slipped the first stitch as if to knit and I knit the last stitch. This size cowl took one ball of yarn and was approximately 29 inches long. If you want to make it longer just add a new ball of yarn and continue on in pattern.

For the headband, rather than slip the first stitch of every row I knit it and gave it a good tug to keep an even edge and I knit the last stitch. Make sure to measure your head. What you want to do is knit the headband about - 1 shorter than the width of your head. It should fit nice and snug without being too tight.
