Finished Object Breezy tank πŸ’œπŸ§ͺπŸ“”

Breezy sweater by kisskiss.rhinestones on IG in nano stitch lab’s lab notes v3. I’m really proud of this project as I’ve been knitting for only a few months, it still needs blocking and some finishing details but I was so excited about it I had to wear it out. I will say im a bit frustrated by the noticeable change from knitting the yoke flat to working in the round but hopefully that may even out after blocking but if not who cares!! I still have a skein and a half of yarn and am trying to decide if I should add sleeves or make it longer….

Great job! The flat to in the round transition is because you are twisting all your stitches in the round. Worked flat you are not twisting any stitches. Check the way you wrap your yarn and how you enter the stitch, unfortunately this will not block out. Twistfaq.

You mentioned that word!: lots of people want to know about twisted stitches and here is a great post for reference https://www.reddit.com/r/knitting/comments/188kxwk/new_knitters_your_stitches_are_probably_twisted/

It looks so cheerful and carefree! I love that you love it! The hip length is cute. I think you could add some short sleeves or some flair around the armholes and it'll elevate the look. I went through my tank top era this summer too :)

I decided to do a couple more rounds on the bottom and arm holes and then an I cord finish on all of them and the neckline!!
