Here's my question: I'm up to the part where you start the sleeves. I transferred 58 sts to the larger needle. Then comes the DEC row (RS). It tells you to dec 2 sts in that row and then says there should be 67 sts remaining. Am I crazy? How can you decrease from 58 and have MORE sts left when you're done? <em>Zontee says: Hi Linda, read Stefanie's posts on <a href="http://blog.lionbrand.com/2009/05/21/textured-circle-shrug-knit-along-separating-the-sleeves-from-the-body/" rel="nofollow">Separating the Sleeves form the Body</a> and the <a href="http://blog.lionbrand.com/2009/05/28/textured-circle-shrug-knit-along-sleeves/" rel="nofollow">Sleeves</a>, where she gives a breakdown of each step of both sections of the pattern, which should hopefully help.

Im now on the neck trim and am working on the “Inc rnd 1” row. However I seem to have too many stitches between markers. Im knitting the size 36- 38, and I followed the instructions of “Work to first marker, *[k1, p1, RLI, p1] 13 (15, 17, 18, 20, 22) times, [k1, p1] 1 (1, 1, 1, 0, 1) time” And as I’m doing the second size I carried out the “k1, p1, RLI, p1” 15 times, then “K1 P1” once. However rather than reaching the marker, I then had 15 stitches left before the marker. Please can anyone help as its driving me mad! Ive checked again and again and I have the markers in the right place, and picked up the right number of stitches at the start but it still doesnt work :( I wondered if anyone can help me with the textured circle shrug pattern .

The learner center is fantastic. I have finished my shrug and love it. Could not have done it without the knit along. Fantastic. The learner center is my new best friend. Many, many thanks.

This will be my first time to knit along with you. I learned how to knit in school but set it down until about a year ago. About 25 years between there, lol. My neice wants this shrug so I'm hoping, with some luck, I can make it for her. Love the Lion Brand website and all the great ideas and patterns. Keep up the great work. I am so excited!
