Cecile Pullover
HI! I am the designer of this piece and I would like to add a couple of bits of information.
Please be aware that the pattern in the magazine has a small, but important omission…the underarm shaping is not complete on the opposite side from where you cast on. Be sure you mirror it, or the second arm on each piece will not be the correct size. See below for corrections.
Also, I recommend choosing the size closest to your waist measurement rather than underbust…if you choose underbust, you may end up a size larger than you really need.
Corrections for left half of Cecile Pullover
It was brought to my attention that the left side of the sweater pattern does not symmetrically match the right side. On the right side of the sweater on rows 37 through 43, there are decreases at the armhole edge of the work that should be mirrored by increases on the opposite side of the sweater.
Here is the correction that should be posted with the pattern on the Knitscene site and the ravelry page.
In the section Labeled, “shape left shoulder” Beginning at the bind off of the body stitches, the pattern should read:
BO 40(40, 56, 56, 64) sts work across remainder of row and decrease one stitch at end of row
Working in established patterns, dec 1 st at shoulder edge of work every RIGHT SIDE ROW 5(6, 7, 8, 9) times
Next, continue the decreases at the shoulder edge, but INCREASE at the armhole edge every right side row 4(5, 6, 7, 8) times
Continue in established patterns and DECREASE at BOTH edges every right side row until there are 2 sts left
BO and weave in all ends
Happy knitting!
