I am currently making the back panel for the Preppy Diamond Jumper but when I am crocheting the panel is not turning out straight. The ribbing is made with a 4.5 crochet hook and 5 crochet hook for the color work . When the panel is slightly stretched it ends up straight but I am worried it won’t stay that way when it is sewn together. What should I do? Should I try a smaller hook?
Hi @kylienielsen !
Before resorting to frogging, I would first check that the gauge of the bodice matches the instructions, and then if necessary, and if you want you could frog and adjust hook size.
Regarding the un-evenness - the ribbing should be slightly narrower than the bodice, but I can’t tell without measuring if it’s too wide, so I think your safest bet is to check the gauge before deciding what to do!
