how to knit the following pattern:?
I am knitting a teddy bear. The body portion is confusing me. When I knit this as I read it, the portion of the body is way too small for the head I've already made. When I read this pattern I come up with about 23 rows, which can't be right. Here are the instructions exactly as they are written:
Cast on 22 sts. K 10 rows. Cont in garter st and inc 1 st at each end of next row and 6 foll 6th rows. 36 sts. K 7 rows.
I think I go wrong where it says 6 foll 6th rows, perhaps I don't know what that means like I think I do, or there is missing information or a typo in the pattern. I'm stuck. Any opinions/advise would be great. Thank you.
It means that you should increase one stitch at each end of every 6th row for 6 times. So on the 10th row you increased 2 stitches and you will increase 12 more on the increase rows giving you a total of 14 added to the 22 cast on giving you the 36 stitches. Hope this helps. Email me if you have a problem with this information.
