I’m having trouble sewing up the sleeves where there is ribbing. Any suggestions?

Just now starting and have several Fisherman wool. Are there hints for changing
from bulky to size 4 yarns? ALso raglans dont fit well so thought just straight up front and sleeves for me

Hi Edna, if you go to our Flickr Group, you can see more photos of the hoodie on a person.

6 days ago, and you are further than I was until last night! I am almost (as in, just a few rows left) done with the second front piece, and then the sleeves left to go. I also find just an hour or so once in a while to work on this. That is why I like the fact that all the blog postings with tips stay “available”, so I can look through the right ones when I am ready!

I’m also using Homespun, and while I am not as far as you all are, I definitely will have a lot more than I need on hand. I figure if it literally works out to having half of it left, maybe I will make another in a small, for my daughter (either the 11- or the 14-year-old – let’s see who is nicer to me in the next few weeks).

Ok… I understand how to do the hook part but I’m not crazy about a flat top hood on me. I’d love to see a picture of it with the hook up on a person!! Hint, hint!!! Wish there was another photo of the “model in brown” with it up. I may prefer it with one seam on top & the little point at the back corner. (where you hang the tassel for a kid).
I’m also thinking about putting in a light weight zipper instead of buttons. My hubby likes that idea. The way the buttons are done on this Hoodie allows the front to stay opened a bit. We want this for warmth & air going in the front won’t do it.

Emily, I am using Homespun too and was also hesitant, but…. I love it! I have also found that I am using much less yarn so far. The one thing I did find was that the ribbing seemed very loose using the 11′s and I finally sized down to a 9 and found that to work much better for me. I was wondering how your ribbing is working out.
