Im doing the 4th size but I’m having difficulty when to increase please help i think I’ve got to increase on 3rd row then following 6th which will be 10 then I’m lost Now working in knit garter st throughout, cont as foll:
Inc 1 st at each end of next [next: 3rd: 3rd: 3rd] and every
foll 4th [6th: 6th: 6th: 8th] row to 39 [45: 49: 45: 57] sts,
then on 1 [0: 0: 4: 0] foll 6th [0: 0: 8th: 0] rows.
41 [45: 49: 53: 57] sts.
Pattern help
Inc 1 st at each end of 3rd and every foll 6th row to 45 sts,
then on 4foll 8th rows. 53 sts.
Yes, increase at each end on row 3 and then on rows 9,15,21,27 and so on until you get to 45sts. Once you get to 45 sts, increase at each end on the following rows 8,16,24 and 32 which will take you to 53sts.
Thanks I got rows3,9,15,21 then 25,33,41,49 so nearly cracked it
OK, almost there. For the second set of increases it should be every 8th row. So 3,9,15 and 21 (that’s every 6th row) and then 29,37,45 and 53 (that every 8th row).
Thankyou, it was the 4 in the brackets what confused the issue as this is size I am making it I thought I had to do for the 4th then 6th then 8th rows🙄
Yes, easy to be confused with this kind of direction. It’s the 4 following 8th rows. Basically that’s every 8 rows, stop after you’ve worked the increases 4 times (every 8th row x4).
