The small measurement across the bust is 36". Is there some way of making the sweater smaller or do you think with the design, it will be okay? Thanks for any help you can give me. Leslie Hi,

I would like to make this sweater for my daughter in law, but she is very petite - probably around a size 4/6. The small measurement across the bust is 36″. Is there some way of making the sweater smaller or do you think with the design, it will be okay?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

I started the yoke per instructions. I am lost. Row two says to knit the knit and purl the purl but mine is not turning out like the picture. Is the picture done puling the knit and knitting the purl. My looks like it is all gartner stitched both sides. I do not have the stockinette look on the cables. PLEASE HELP! <em>Heather says: "Hi, Ray: On the wrong side, knit those stitches that appear as knits (they were the purl stitches on the right side) and purl the stitches that appear as purls (they were the knit stitches on the right side). Hope this clarifies this for you." </em> I am attempting this sweater. I started the yoke per instructions. I am lost.

I was amazed that this sweater pattern was offered for free as I had seen it in earlier emails. However, I was sad to see that I had missed the download dates. Would it be possible to have the pattern shared with me? Money is tight right now as the off work time was without pay. The sweater would make a lovely late Chanukah gift for my daughter. If not, I certainly understand. Cynthia Hello:

Hopefully there will be some further clarification on the pattern for the body of the sweater. I'm an experienced knitter, but am struggling a little with getting started on the back with the increases and the 2 cable patterns. It's a great, challenging project! <em>Zontee says: Hi Linda, the next update from Heather will be up tomorrow morning. </em> When is the next update scheduled?

My question concerns the back and the increasing on each side. I'm knitting in the front and back of the stitch for the increase. Now, on the 2nd row do I knit or pearl the increased stitch. I'm assuming I don't start the increase row within the cable til after I reach my 90 stitchs (size sm) and do the 4 cast on stitches on each side. Is that correct? I hate to go too far and have to rip out. I have a question but I’m not sure how to ask so that you will understand. My question concerns the back and the increasing on each side.
