I’m so happy I helped. My little Yorkshire heart has been blessed from Nevada! I love your chart. And that you are modelling how to grab hold of a project by the scruff of its neck and make yourself a way of seeing that works and is fun to do. I will definitely use colour coded stitch marking next time I knit from a chart. Don’t you just love the reciprocal learning in this space? Vygotsky would be proud! 😊🎉

Well done, Cheryl! Eagle eye viewer!!! I think that the mistake made here was extremely useful (for me anyway) as I am only now starting to look at charts and trying to learn how to read them so I can use them. They are still rather difficult for me, but I'm picking things up.... and Tayler's mistake and her solution? Fabulous lesson. I am so thankful for all I am learning from the knitting (handwork) community.

Yesterday at my church this lady (same as last week) handed me another tote bag full of mostly sock/fingering weight wool & merino yarns. My jaw dropped with the quantity of these amazing fibers since I'm just getting into more natural fibers and getting bags handed to me. My dad went through these bags since I was about to donate some of it, but he saw the Caron Simply Soft yarn in the color "off white" and asked me to knit him a vest. So, I began last night then worked on it in the car ride back to school. My dad isn't really the type of person to wear sweaters or vests so I'm willing to knit this for him since he really wants one with this color. In the past week, I knitted up these really adorable pink baby socks for a couple at my church who has an 8-month-old girl, so I wanted to try out knitting socks for them. They turned out amazing and was surprised how well they came out, especially after blocking them. I also decided to crochet a little ruffled dress for one of my teddy bears to use up some yarn and that was really fun. I got to chat with someone I don't know that well and we talked about knitting & crocheting. Now my spring break is over sadly but learned and accomplished a bunch of FOs and have a couple of WIPs now.

I find that the yarn will “tell” you what it is meant to be. I can’t tell you how many projects wouldn’t cooperate with what I had in mind. I also think your husband will really appreciate that you are making a sweater especially planned for him. It’s a real labor of love.

I would have busted that PDF open in inkscape and spent far too long redoing the charts when I should have just printed it. My dyslexia hits hard on cabling charts, so I'll often just write in "f" or "b" in the symbols to help read them, or color code them. I'm working on an origami knit scarf now and he had a charted and a written version. The written version makes complete sense but honestly I keep looking back at the charted and can't make any sense of it! for your raglan, Tin Can Knits Flax sweater is a top down raglan and I've seen people do beautiful stripes in it. Also a free pattern. I recently just did the best spin of my life on some local hand dyed alpaca fiber, but it came out too thin for the project I had in mind. So now I need to play with it and see where that fabric wants to go. So frustrating when you try to go into stuff with a project in mind!

I'm doing a Japanese Chart Reading KAL, so there ARE cables coming up, along with other nifty things that, once done, will ramp up my knitting skills quickly. I'm also a VERY visual person/learner, so how you set up your charts with the color-coding and stitch markers is PERFECT and makes so much sense to me!!! Should I decide to take on a cabled sweater, I now know how to set it up confidently!!! Thanks!!!

i love your chart! it makes me feel like i'm not alone.😄 what i tend to do is: i draw a chart of how the pattern looks from the right side. next to it, i draw a chart with every odd line looking the same and every even line reversed. this way, i have precisely the pattern i need for knitting but i also know what it will look like in the end. i use strong double-sided tape and stick some velum paper over my charts. then use a washi tape to mark the line i'm currently knitting for my mix chart. i find washi tape much better than any sticky note. they last longer and i can mark the whole row (which i consider necessary with astigmatism).

I think you may be making it more complicated than it has to be. In my experience with cable patterns, on the wrong side you copy the stitch you see. Actually that is generally the case with knitting in the round as well (my preference whenever possible) - every other row is a copy of the stitch you see on the needle. Hopefully that will make the process more relaxing.

Perhaps you’re right Sue. However, as one who has limited experience with this sort of pattern, I’d rather overcomplicate things and realize later that I can simplify things as opposed to oversimplifying things only to realize that my inexperience requires that I have more…scaffolding. If that makes sense. 👍❤️

Mandala is not self striping and no two skeins start in the same place (Ref: the monster cardigan I just finished last month) Just wanted to let you know that if you need more than one ball-skein- 500 yd thingie of it. Edit: By that I mean, yes, it makes stripes, but if you need more than one repeat, you need to match a new skein to the old one to get stripes that go in series.

I understand what you’re saying here however for what I’m using it for, it’s self-stripping nature in terms of how each skein is dyed is what appeals to me for this project. I don’t necessarily need each skein to match up. 👍❤

Awesome video as always Tayler! To avoid the pricked finger phenomenon, I picked up some rubber/silicone thimbles from $Tree. Haven't used them yet as I've been on a crocheting doll kick but they fit great. Also the last time I was at IKEA, I bought a couple of the RENSARE waterproof bags thinking they'd make great on the go project bags. During a recent trip, I took it along with me and it was perfect...clipped it to my personal item and crocheted away while waiting at the gate for boarding. It kept my project ultra secure, snag free, and soooo accessible even on the plane.

Hi Missus Earl, the volume seems to be lower than normal; I had to turn my volume nearly all the way up. Since you aren't sure about the sock's durability as socks, maybe you can convert them to complementary, multicolored firepit mitts and use them for a #sendoff. 🤷♀️ Those needles sound very sharp. The alphabet thing seems cute. It sucks that the sweater wasn't working for you, but I hope that the Stripe-igan/Stripelan is more adaptable to fit your needs. I myself just finished the prototype design hat I've been planning and knitting for two years. I ran into lots of issues. I need to mail it. So glad it's done, but I'll need to knit a few more hats and figure out the wraps per inch so it'll be easily replicable, since the pattern is very involved, and I want to eventually sell the pattern on Ravelry. What steps did you take to become a pattern saleslady on there? Oh yeah! And I FINALLY finished my #socksbyChristmas for my step-sis! Ran out of yarn, and when I bought a different colorway of the same type of yarn (I thought) the texture was completely different! Ugh. So there was that issue, but I did it anyway, because I expect it won't make much difference, and I really hope she likes them. Shall I send the photos to you?

Note about reading charts right to left - I'm a lefty, so I read charts Row 1- left to right, Row 2- right to left. Charts help also with leaning increases and decreases - I also use a KEY - lefty (mirror-knitting) decreases and increases lean opposite too. I'm working on a shawl that I put into excel.

Funny how habit is conditioning. I learned to knit flat, on straight needles, with the Irish lever method that is practically extinct. Then I turned to crochet for many many years. Only now in my 60's have I started knitting again, and oh boy, internet has a lot to say! Continental, circulars, top downs... totally alien stuff! I have recently knit my first top down colourwork circular yoke and it was HARD. When I knit flat in pieces, I can look at that back panel and 'see' the whole sweater. I can 'see' if the measurements are good or not. All things people say is the reason top down sweaters are easier, but I couldn't for the life of me 'see' what was developing. Good thing it was a great pattern, lol. I'm SO slow on circulars, they just float around while I'm used to a fixed needle under my arm, but I will get there; loving the new stuff to learn 😍

I'm glad someone helped you out with the cabled jumper. I think your solution is excellent but I'm impressed that you're knitting the cables from a chart in the first place. I just....can't. I have even tried to colour in the different cable crosses on a chart with different highlighters but it's like I just can't *see* the difference in the symbols to be sure I'm doing it correctly. So I only knit cables when there's a written text to tell me what to do. It doesn't have to be a row by row for every single row version; even a short text to say what each row of a repeat is *once* will do, but if the pattern only has a legend which says this symbol=this cable, I just move on.

having to stop and flip papers around and translate symbols was making it impossible for me to make any progress on my projects. for years I thought I just couldn't read charts. it took me a really long time to find a system for keeping track of charts that works for me, but now I just work with pdfs on my laptop or iPad. I cut and paste the key to the charts on every page and then I color code my charts to correspond with my stitch markers, use text boxes to note any changes I've made, and I keep track of where I am in the chart with a big highlighted box that I can move after every row. finding a method that works for you is such a game changer.

Have yet to tackle a cabled sweater however I feel your pain with instructions. What makes total sense to some people drives some one else over the edge. I write all over my patterns so I could never read one from a computer screen etc. Are you now going to call them Frankenpatterns? As a newish knitter, I'm amazed at the details a viewer could pick up from your video. Those self striping yarns like mandala are great for mosaic crochet blankets if you ever want to go in that direction. Since the coloured rows alternate with a neutral it is not so overwhelming. White, cream and black are great for blankets as I've made several.

Love the system you came up with to keep track of the different cable charts. In the past, I have even created spreadsheets to keep track of what row I should be on in each chart. Highlighter tape is a must for me when working from any chart - used to use sticky notes but they can curl up and seem to fall off more often. Learning to read your knitting is also a great skill when working cables so that you can see a mistake sooner than later. Good luck with your cabled sweater - it will be gorgeous!

With this being said, I have only made 2 items with cables ever and have never worked off of a chart. Thank you for giving me the courage to dive into the deep end with abandon!

I highlight my cable symbols so it’s easier to see and memorize so my chart are truly colourful….try it and see if it works for you!

I love the knitphabet!! Note cards would be so fun if they were feasible. I love finding knitting note cards to send with gifts or to just write a note to my knit friends

I want that sweater so bad but I'm soooo not ready for that. I would be willing to trade a crochet project for that beautiful sweater!!!

I use a leather glove fingertip from a pair of too small gloves when knitting with sharp needles. The other fingertips make great thimbles!

For some really simple, masculine upper body striping on an raglan construction, take a look at the Montrealer pattern. I made one and really like the look of it.

I'm working on finishing a Montrealer for my husband. You should look into it if you still need any inspiration

I have my first ever cabled sweater knit flat on my needles so I definitely feel you with the chart brain issues 😅 and your #notavegan made me laugh

I have done this in crochet too. And now this last year I write down and make chart’s and I use paper and color code. It helps me so much to keep my place.

Could you turn the zebra yarn socks into mitts? Would a cuff that fits your leg fit your forearm?
