Hi there,

I'm new to this forum and council and require some clarification with a pattern. It reads "increase 1 st each end of needle on 5th and every following 8th row." Does this mean increase on every 5th row AND 8th row starting with row 5? Or after row 5, every 8th row, meaning row 13, 21, 29, etc...? Please help! Thank you!

Circular knitting

I am knitting a sweater from the bottom up. The sleeves are knit and added separately, on to the circular needles. I must be doing something wrong because when I add the six stitches under the arm they come out purl . Please is there anyone out there that can tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks for any help provided to me.

Will someone please tell me the best way to add a new ball/skein of yarn into a project? Knit two strands together, knot, only do so at the edge? Thanks

I've lost it!

When we moved I apparently lost a favorite pattern. It's a bottom-up bed cape pattern that begins with large circular needles and progresses to smaller ones to complete the shaping. I've made several and want to do so again for my chemo/radiation facility. It was in a small booklet (perhaps a Workbasket).
