I've hit a snag in my first knitting project. I'm not sure I'm experienced enough to fix it, which is why I had reservations about trying clothing first thing. I got to the point where I could try it on, and I'm displeased with the armholes. (And I didn't know my back was so flabby!)




I think I would be okay with the drape if it didn't bunch around armholes so much. If I open it up more in that area, I think that would fix the stretching problem in the back as well. I am somewhat concerned about the vast difference between the length in the front and the length in the back. I could try binding off another stitch at the outset and working more decrease rows. That wouldn't be too difficult, but I'm not sure if it would solve all three problems. I guess I won't know until I try it. I'll worry about the armholes first, then the length. Can't say I'm not learning something!
