“M” Word from Dec. 2009: From this formula, how can I make a pattern in larger sizes than what it’s printed for? Example, if pattern size goes to a 44, how would I calculate each increase/decrease, etc. to make it to fit bust size of 50?

This is quite a nice blog! But my only question would be how do you calculate how much extra yarn you need? Like if I use a DK instead of an Aran weight yarn, I’m going to need more of it to finish the project.

Thanks!

thanks for this post, now I know how many to cast-on using different yarn with different gauge.

Would it be alright if I request for a topic on increase / decrease if I used a different gauge, cause obviously if I used a different gauge, my cast-on would be different hence, the increase and decrease will vary as well…

I would like to learn when and how many should I increase/decrease especially if am making is the arm /sleeve part…

Thanks!
