Just finishing up a bottom up raglan sweater, and am left stumped on how to close up the underarm holes. Most of the instructions I see say to use Kitchener stitch to graft them closed, but my pattern had me bind off the underarm stitches. Trying to figure out how to neatly close em up and am stuck!
Closing underarm gaps from bound off stitches
Welcome to KH!
You can use mattress stitch to close up the underarms. Leave a bit of a yarn tail on each end so that you can easily close up any small hole either side of the underarm.
This demo works for any stitch pattern and is even easier with stockinette stitch in case that’s what you have.
