Knitting Help?

[Newwoman2017]

Hi can anyone help with a knitting pattern I have?

What's your problem? I'll have a go at helping if I can.

Happy to help if I can...

Thank you very much I've made a cardigan and i have to join the raglan seams which I have done. The next part is the hood. It say the following.

Where do I cast the stitches on?

I can only see part of the pattern. Are there any instructions about picking up stitches from the neckline?

What's the next bit of the pattern? After the photo you have already shared. Is it a Sirdar one?

Might be that you make the hood as a separate piece and then sew it on to the cardigan after.

Tends to be a square where two ends are sewn together to make the pointy part of the hood then the long end is seen on to the body of the cardigan.

Cast on means cast on I think, like you do when you start a garment. If it wanted you to pick up stitches across the garment it would say pick up x number of stitches evenly across whichever bit.

So cast on two stitches, row one has one increase in it to make 3 stitches. Row 2 is purl those three stitches.

The next big is here. It goes on to day pick up stitches from sleeve and back. I just can't see where my starting point is tho.

It looks like you cast on like you did at the start of the garment and follow the pattern - increasing as you go on.

Yep, it's just a separate piece by the looks of it. Knit away!

Phew Thanks . I've been knitting this for almost 2 years on and off my daughter will be grown out of it if i don't finish it soon!
