Question
blujeans1008
hi guys.
here I am again. i need help. i hope you don't mind.
the issues i am having are with the sleeves and the shorts. well start with the sleeves. I follow the pattern until it measures the appropriate length. 2 inches, something doesn't look right though. there's no way its big enough for a 2 year old and definitely not long enough. ( I will attach a photo of the sleeve). typical way a sleeve is made is u make 2 identical pieces. u divide it halfway between the front and back pieces then it becomes folded. it is then sewed together. this sleeve does not work that way at all. HELP!!
Second is the shorts. I started the pattern. it tells me to repeat rows 2 and 3 till it measures 2 1/2 inches. then it says to decrease 2 stitches at beginning and end for next 3 rows decreasing to 47 stiches at final step. the issue im having here is i can't decrease like it says and still follow the pattern.
have any of you run into the amount of trouble i have on multiple patterns. i have heard that patterns are not written correctly. i don't know if that's the case here. let me know. I'm stuck.
let me know if you have any questions.
thanks
