Question on The Blazer
I’ve decided to do the waist shaping on The Blazer and want to clarify the instructions before I proceed. It says to measure the distance from the current body length to the waist to determine how many rows to knit between decrease rows. Does this mean the distance from the row I’m currently on to my waist (or my desired length)?

Noura Cardigan
I am very confused about the setup of the chart with the Noura Cardigan. I have never used Stitch Fiddle and I didn't know that I needed to be familiar with it to even chart out the pattern for my size. I'm frustrated because I've watched the video over and over on how to figure out where to start the stitch pattern... still makes little sense. I have been knitting for 40 years and this is the first time Ive been so stumped - since I have to figure out the stitch pattern for my particular size. If anyone has knit this in size 4, I would appreciate any help with the stitch count, etc. Thank you!
Gauge
So I don’t think I have a particularly tight or loose tension and usually get gauge or within 1-2 stitches; so I know how to calculate and knit an alternative size if needed, BUT I have tried a variety of needle sizes and even yarn but I don’t come anywhere close to the right gauge for the Ailis sweater: 26st x 34 rows with 4-ply yarn This is my gauge: 4-ply 3mm: 32st x 38r 3.5mm: 31st x 36r 4mm: 30st x 32 r Sport 3mm: 30st x 36r 3.5mm 28st x 32r 4 mm: 26st x 28r See photos of my test swatches washed and blocked. I also measured a colourwork sweater worked in the round with 4-ply yarn and stitch gauge is the same; although row gauge a bit different. What do I do?

Rujuu clue 6 sleeves - pattern issues
Hi! I just messed up the pattern on the arm 😅 anyone know what’s up? “Last round sets the pattern” confused me. Perhaps I was supposed to keep starting at stitch 12 for the remaining 7 rounds to the first decrease? (I’m doing size 2, using chart III). I’ve ripped back and tried this and that didn’t work either. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong reading the pattern! Thank you for any help!

Neckline and armhole questions
Hi Zanete, I absolutely love your designs but I am having trouble with sweater fit for the Do Ewe Yoke 2. It looks like I need to make the yoke a little deeper before I separate for the armhole. My last sweater from another designer the Yoke was too deep when i separated for the sleeves.the sweater lifts up when i move and was snug in the armpits. I want to avoid this with this sweater. Do you have any suggestions? Also the neck opening is rather large so I want to add the neck band now before I move on. I made the size 2 and my gauge appears to be correct. Any suggestions for the neck band? I am taking my time to problem solve and learn how to make some adjustments for a better sweater fit. Thank you for your time. Karen
