    Someone probably already mentioned but the reason it was wavy after the ribbing is because you increased by putting more blue stitches than green ribbing rows! Also I would HIGHLY suggest using a single or half double crochet stitch for the ribbing! It will allow more stretch and go by sooo much faster

    • @savannah263

      Also is you sew it together on the inside you can’t see the slip/single crochet stitches. Then for the sleeves when you are working in the round instead of doing the stitch from the inside of the circle out work around the circle. That way you see the nice front of the stitches when you wear it!

      If you measure your gauge, then you will know how many stitches it takes to equal the height of a certain number of rows. For example, if you measure a 4x4" patch and are getting 18 stitches wide to 20 rows high then you will know to edge with 18 stitches per 20 rows OR, IOW, skip every 9th row.

    a little tip.. when you do the ribbing you can do a row of single crochets after finishing it „on top“
    like on the side you want your blue yarn to go later.. then it‘s easier to find places to go in with the blue yarn later and it looks a bit more even? I hope I explained it good enough in my bad english🤓

    instead of doing slip stitch ribbing you can do half double crochet ribbing which is a lot faster:)
    also working in the round would be a lot easier

    You're such a inspiration. I started crochet 6 days before with years of "no I won't make this, that's to tricky" and I'm pretty impressed by myself how fast I learned and do things, but the confidence to make something to wear is so far away, but today I saw your video and your last words shooted me "I've never done a sweater before" girl you're so cool 😭 someday I will wake up, and I will make a sweater too and I will think about you 💪🧶

    jenna! i came back to this video because it was the first video of yours that i ever watched, about two weeks ago? and i've been hooked on your videos since. what i love the most about your videos is that you show your mess-ups, and having to redo things over and over, and of course the amazing finished products which are so motivating. i am someone that was extremely artistically gifted as a child but now as an adult i NEVER do any art. but after watching your videos, i have found that artsy little girl inside of me and am just allowing myself to let loose with my creativity and have fun!!! something i haven't allowed myself to do in ages. since the start of 2022 i have already started and finished 2 projects: my first ever amigurumi project (a little whale) and just completed a beautiful crochet hat yesterday. i am allowing myself to make mistakes, do things over, play, learn new things, and my brain is buzzing with joy. i have a list of projects i want to do this year and will make a concentrated effort to weave these projects into my daily life and into my self-care routine because it helps SO MUCH. i love how you literally just go for it in your projects without fear of making a mistake, it has helped me to overcome that within my self a good deal. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO FIND MY ARTISTIC INNER CHILD, I HAVE NOT BEEN THIS HAPPY IN A LONG TIME!

    One thing you could do is to thread needles with different colors and stitch patterns into the surface of the sweater. I am a huge textile fan and even tho I don't knit sweaters I do a lot of other work with fabric so I love working a surface with different textures. You could even sew patches of cotton fabric onto the surface of the crochet.

    if you want the ribbing to work up faster, you can single/half double crochet into the back loops instead of slip stitching:) also, about how many yards of yarn did you use?

  • @TarotLadyLissa
    @TarotLadyLissa ปีที่แล้ว +1

    for ribbing, i count my rows of ribbing, and do that many stitches across. So if you did 80 rows, then you'd make sure you have 80 double crochets across (include your chain 3 at the beginning).

    I actually like growing the arm from the sweater. It gives me more of an idea of how it's gonna look and fit and I like having a big project on my lap. I like making bigger things like sweaters bc of that reason. I watched your sweater vest video too and you are very skilled! It's nice watching people get into the hobby and make things they are gonna wear. You are creating a memory with yourself.

    Some advice for other people who want to try this. For ribbing you can the same thing she did working only in the back stitch but just with single crochets. You can also go along when you finish the rubbing and to make stitches to crochet in you can single crochet twice in each hole she showed.
