This week we're tackling four questions about handknit sweater fit from watchers/listeners:


How to accommodate hips without adopting A-line shaping (thanks Tonya!)
Talk about math on top-down raglans and dig into neckline shaping (thanks Fran!)
A demo of why adding rows in the back of the yoke of a sweater is NOT the same as working neckline shaping using short rows
Perfect fit for intentionally oversized garments (thanks Jackie!)
How to adjust patterns when your breasts are in the "wrong" place (Thanks Jess!)
Should you work a shorter bust adjustment in an oversized garment?


Next episode we'll be talking even more about fitting breasts, and digging into Bess' bralette pattern.
We'd love to invite you to chime in on the comments section - do you think you'll try any of these strategies? Do you have follow up questions? Let us know!
