Archive of Thread: Possible on the machine? Back

4 years ago
Hello Sue, I was so happy to be able to be part of the live webcast today, it had been a long time for me. I came across this on pintrest and thought this would be possible on the machine. What do you think? Can this be done?

So pretty!

Yes, it could easily be done on the machine.. honestly the body looks like they are just 2 lace rectangles

The striped yoke looks like it's garter stitch that could be done by hand or with the g-carriage.
Another option would be to crochet the yoke.

Which KIN tool(s) would you recommend I use to figure out the angles (decreases) for the top of the sweater? Good idea on crocheting the neck band by the way.

I really don't think there are any angles.... It looks to me like the lace sections are just rectangles.  The shaped armholes are created when you gather the front and back at the neckline.

To answer your question:  To calculate an angle, use the Magic formula

Magic Formula in inches (use this when you know the dimensions)

Magic Formula Stitches / Rows (use this when you know the stitches and rows)
