Hi
I visited all the sites. Looks good . I'm too planning to knit a sweater for my daughter. Do anyone know that the size given fit well for indian kids.?

Thanks,

Hi ramalav

It depends on the age and size...so you can convert and adjust...and also have to adjust throughout to bring in the change uniformly..that is if a pattern says 100sts for 32size...then if you are intending to make 80sts..then the whole pattern has to be converted accordingly..

if it is your first time...be careful when you convert...

All the best

Hi Shanvy,

dear rama,
i always use a inch tape for this whatever be the size say 32 then i knit the border which we know the numbers and measure that way u are very sure how many stitches help you or either increase or decrease the size of needles usually this is done with no 10 to get an ordinary finish, try to mix and match and make patterns, i know it is a little extra but the child will look great as they are small. even if you have a little shortage increase immediately after the border and it will loosen the sweater for you..sunkan
