In the video she does a u-wrap but says e-wrap – confusing, this also pulls the knit tighter and ends up with the measurements being off. I was hoping she would reply to the comments about how to fix the hump that formed in mine but it has been a month since posing the question and no answer. I am deeply disappointed.

The video did not show her project like midway through or when she took it off to measure so I do not know if that is common and if it corrects itself or if it is an issue with something that I am doing and I cannot find any other sources for this online. Did anyone actually make this to completion? So far it is very time consuming and cumbersome working with that rectangle loom, then having that hump issue I am very tempted to start over with the crochet pattern for this.

Kristen, if you haven’t already done so, please add your very helpful cast-on calculator to your YouTube channel. Being somewhat of a newbie, I’d also appreciate it if you could go over simple things like “choosing which crochet hook to use for different yarn weights” and “how to read ball band symbols and graphics” on yarn skeins. (e.g. If the yarn is a 6 weight (super bulky) and the ball band graphic recommends crochet hook “N-13 (9mm)” is Lion Brand referring to US crochet hook size, or what?) Which stitch(es) should we use to measure gauge for loom knitting when following a pattern with different stitches? Can you please summarize the compolete pattern construction with visuals before beginning the steps for your projects? That would be so helpful, especially if we need to modify the pattern. Thanks so much!

I have just started attempting to make this, but was wondering if I didnt add the extra cast on stitch after 31” would that stop the v neck on the back of the garment. I really love this top but I’m not keen on the v neck at the backs prefer it all the way up to my shoulders. Many thanks
