Im currently making the lion brand knitted striped yoke pullover for my toddler and im so upset, i managed to finish the neckline and went to try it on, but its way too small for him, i cant get it over his head.

As im only a beginner knitter i was hoping somebody could share some advice on how to enlarge this neck section. I was thinking of binding off maybe 6 sts more on the front neck section, or maybe i could decrease 4 sts instead of 2 sts with the neck decrease as per pattern. As i havent knitted anything like this before im so confused and have no idea what i should do as i want to get this completed. I also dont know whether i should be changing the back measurement as well as the back has to match the front in order to sew it up

This is the first time im knitting a sweater and im stuck on the sleeve instructions which are,

With mc cast on 22 sts. Knit 5 rows, change to st.st, work 8 rows of stripe pattern.

at same time, increase 1 st each side every 4th row, 10 times and every 6th row twice, 42 sts. work even until sleeve measures 11 inches.I understand the increase 4 sts 10 times but what throws me is the 6th row twice part. So do i increase on 4,8,12,16,20 etc and also on the 6th row and 12th row? If i do the increases on the 12th row (being one of the row 4's and row 6) does that mean i increase 2 sts on each edge, i really want to get this right and appreciate any advice given.

Im stuck on neck shaping, pattern says Keeping in pattern k18 sts. Join second strand of yarn and bind off next 8 sts, knit to end. Working both sides at once, DECREASE 1 ST AT NECK EDGE EVERY OTHER ROW 3 TIMES (thats where im confused)

Part 2 of my ? is pattern tells you to sew the left shoulder seam and with RS facing pick up and k 42 sts evenly around neck edge. work 5 rows in st.st bind off. Then sew right shoulder and neck seam, sew in sleeves.

I dont understand this concept, wouldnt it be more logical to sew both shoulder seams, then pick up stitches, do extra 5 rows and bind off. I just want to get this sweater finished. Any advice or help would be most appreciated.

Im fairly new to crocheting and am attempting to make a poncho. The guage is 7 sts and 4 rnds to 4" in dc using size P (11.5mm) hook and 2 strands of yarn held tog. TAKE TIME TO CHECK GAUGE. im not quite sure how i would make this (is it in the round?? how do i make it?) Any advice would be appreciated as i really want to make this poncho.

im from australia and stitches are named differently our treble is usa dc, and our dc is usa sc.

im trying to work out this pattern and am stuck.1st row. miss 5 ch, 1tr in 6th ch from hook, *1ch, miss 1 ch, 1tr in next ch, rep from* till end.

row 2. (1dc, 1ch) in first tr

my question is, do i do 3 chains at the end as turning chain???

2nd question, Im not sure how to start row 2, do i substitute the 1tr for 1dc 1ch any advice would be appreciated. thanks
