I’m making the gorgeous Ghali sweater in a size to for my upper bust. Would it work to add extra stitches under the arms for the front to fit the bigger bust (F) Thinking to increase enough to make the front in the next size up then decrease down afterwards. Would this work? @Zanete Hussain @Liene Kalniņa

Well I’ve started and made a mistake … I’m on holiday and just involved in my opaque yarn and have ended up doing all of my section A in opaque …. However, my question is re bust darts has anyone tried it or got advice for this pattern… I do have rather large boobies 32HH and I’m tall. The Ruuju was the first I knitted with the alterations as suggested .. in that I knitted a size 3 and extended the yoke and it fits beautifully. Whereas the Thuraya I knit in a 4 or 5 ( can’t remember) and it’s a bit big across the shoulders etc. Still not finished it as I had the help of my kitten and came away with about 6 rows short of the contrast ….

I am finally finishing the Rujuu sweater and have learned a lot mostly to trust the pattern directions and to read them all the way carefully before starting. I made many mistakes and messed up the color order but still love the sweater and my daughter still very much wants it so hey!! Happy ending!! I am about to cast on the Ghali sweater for me because… come on, it is stunning!! My youngest (22 years old) loves the Caeli sweater (the one I have been coveting since it came out) but wants it to be short sleeves. Ordinarily I would wing it, but I love this so much I don’t want to screw it up. Any suggestions on where to stop or if you think it just shouldn’t be done? She was thinking just below the honeycomb section before the last set of arrows? I see others have done it in a short sleeve but wanted your opinion or best tips. Thanks much for the beautiful work you do and inspiring us all! Vicki

I have finished my Celestia top double sided. I love this project. I solved some challenges with double sided knitting, especially for short rows, increasing/decreasing and finishing. However at the end I think it is OK. I used 700g Bambú M from CasaSol and worked on 3,5 needles. More detailed pictures you can find on Ravelry (Tanikp11). Thank you Zanete for this beautiful pattern.
