I'm doing this too. If you plan on having a collar that folds over, but be sure to knit it on the correct side. Forgive me if this sounds like foolish and...
The self-proclaimed Mariah Moron is making real progress! I have 13" of the sleeve 1 done, and I haven't had to rip out rows for two nights now! This includes...
Thanks, Kristin, I don't think there's any such thing as foolish or obvious advice... I pictured doing that in my mind but who knows if I would remember to do...
Yeah!! I'm so glad you're making progress and you sound so psyched up!! As for hijacking your other 7s from a UFO... I have all of my pieces on stitch holders...
I was considering doing the same with mine, but knowing me, I'd end up with only stockinette to be knit, having done all the cables. So, I'm sludging through...
Hi Jaime, If you want to fold the collar over (like a shirt collar), then you will begin knitting the RS of the collar on the WS of the yoke. This is...
My Mariah seems to be taking forever! I see how quick you all are going and its totally amazing to me! I know it will be summer before i finish it! anyway,...
I'm finally making some progress on the fronts, after overcoming the stitch count(and ending on point f) issue for the medium size. I also posted instructions...
I'm making a medium and I didn't have any trouble setting up the fronts. I think the key word is "setting up" because I cast on, read the directions and chart...
cj- they're looking good! I'm almost done my second front- hopefully I'll be yoking by this weekend. As for the Size M fronts..... the math doesn't seem to...
Obsessive is apparently the way to go! Can you explain it? I tried a gazillion times, and couldn't get anything to line up with "f"! ... From: Karma Sawka To:...
I posted what I did on my blog. Essentially, I did what Dianna did, which was to make the adjustment in the side seam, so the cabling (rib) pattern in the ...
Hi everyone! I finally cast on for my first sleeve last night. I am sure that I screwed up the 3-in-1 increases, but it looks fine to me, and that's all that...
You can just do Rows 13-24 as your repeat (rather than 13-52), and when you've hit the point where you want to end them (at the top of the sleeve) you would...
Hey everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself. After lurking for awhile I finally started my sweater this weekend. I'm really enjoing it, it is by far the...
Thanks Jodi! I can't wait to get further along! deb ... From: jody pirrello To: mariahalong@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2005 3:44 PM Subject:...
Hi all :) Well I just recently joined this group since I'm about ready to start my Mariah and figured this would be a good place in case I need any help. Yeah...
Hi April & welcome! This is a very helpful group. You asked about using Cascade 220 - I'm using it and so far am loving it. My sleeves look great - not fuzzy...
Hi April! i'm using cascade 220 also.. and loving it! I've used it for felting before, but not for a sweater. Its so soft, and my gauge was spot on too....
As I get nearer to finishing the fronts, and then working the yoke.. I wonder about the hood. I know some people have added cables to their hood, but can't...
Hello, I've cast on for the back as balance to my sleeve frustration :). All was well with my sleeves until I realized I'd skipped a twist in the side...
Lisa- Keep repeating the 22 stitch repeat, which starts at C I think (my pattern is not with me at the moment). Don't work to the end of the chart each time....
(I'm making the large one) You cast on 52 stitches, and then work 17 increase rows (the first one listed, then the one right after the asterisk, then 15 times...
When I did mine I didn't worry about the number of increase rows, I just increased until I got the right number of stitches. Make sure also though that you're...
Hey Diana, Sorry I didn't reply sooner. Did you print out your directions right when the pattern was published? There are corrections for the left front and I...
86+12=98 the extra 12 stitches are the ones added on to create the cables. Unless you finish your increases on exacty the same row you decrease 5-to-1 twice,...
