[...] Mimouna som er en mester i å lete og finne frem strikkeoppskrifter fra internettet, har fristet meg til å strikke Gehry. [...]

Hi Jan,

Sure thing. Both are methods of increasing. I try to use Knitty’s standard abbreviations for knitting.

kfb means knit into the front and back of the stitch. m1 means make one stitch, most typically picking up the bar between the stitch on the right needle and the stitch on the left. For Irving Park, the method of increasing isn’t that important. Even doing a YO could make some neat looking eyelets!

A couple of abbreviations in your Irving Park pattern are unfamiliar to me! Could you please explain what kfb and m1 mean? Thanks!

Thanks for pointing that out! That’s a typo from a previous version of the pattern. I’ll fix that as soon as I can and get a new pattern posted.

To answer your question, you can just keep going with your #3 needles and don’t worry, there’s no switching of size!

I’m about to start your Irving Park slouch beret pattern, which I absolutely love! I’m making it as a chemo cap for a friend that recently had a double masectomy.

The directions call for #3 16″ circular needles and #3 double pointed, but the directions say after finishing the brim, switch to larger needles, but I can;t find what size larger needles in the directions.

Have you tried Alchemy on Etsy? You can post what you want to have made and artists and crafters will bid on the job.
