Hi – I am trying to make a handbag. Instructions are for felting, BUT I don’t want to felt it. I am making it out of cotton/linen, using double yarn, I get 3.5 stitches to the inch, working on 7″ needles. The pattern calls for casting on 29 st. I am trying to figure out how to make the size after felting. Size after felting is approx. 9 long x 9 wide at top and 11.5 wide at bottom. I am working with 24 stitches for top and I’m getting 6 1/4 inches wide. It needs to be 9″ on top (I’m making it in one piece). How do I figure out how many stitches to start with for the top? I plan on increasing 1 st. each end every inch until 9″ and then decreasing 1 st eac end every 1 inch.

Can you help me please?

Neman: Use this calculator. Enter 93 stitches to begin; decrease 20 stitches. Then follow the "Balanced" instructions. Decrease Evenly

I have 93 sts. and need to dec. it to 73 sts. to give gathers to an A line coat…the pattern says to K2tog. after each 8 sts. I can’t fig. out this. The gathers should be deep and not look like pluckering.

Can someone help?

Thanks!
