Hello,
I am working on Drops design Arctic Tide (https://www.garnstudio.com/pattern.php?id=10018&cid=19) and am starting the yoke increases across the charted pattern. I am making the large size so I have 2 + 14 + 2 + 28 + 2 + 14 + 2 + 28 stitches = 92 stitches.
I am supposed to be repeating the chart A1 across each of those sections (currently 14 or 28 stitches), and A1 is 4 stitches across.
In that very first sleeve section, since 14 isn’t a multiple of 4, would I k1, insert marker, k1, and then jump into the chart (k1, p2, k1) x 3, and end k2 to make 14? Or should I center the chart by doing k1, insert marker, k1, then k1, (k1, p2, k1) x 3, k1 to make 14?
Will it matter when I start the raglan increases?
I know that when I start the increases, the math will change and it should be obvious when I can add another repeat of the chart…but I’m just wondering how to kick it off without getting things lopsided.
If you look at the comments section of the pattern, others had this same question but I just don’t really understand the answers.
Any help would be so appreciated! Thank you!
