How to Knit 4 Different Types of Raglan Increases

Рет қаралды 132,592

Күн бұрын

Here are four different ways to make raglan increases in knitting. When you're knitting a top-down raglan sweater, you can make raglan increases in many different ways. Feel free to use any of these methods when designing your own patterns or you can use a different method than your pattern calls for. Some of these can be modified to create thicker or thinner raglan centers.
Here are the raglan sweater tutorials and patterns I reference:

CHAPTERS
0:00 Intro
0:59 K1F&B (knit 1 in the front and back)
4:37 M1R + M1L (make one right and make one left)
9:30 LLI + RLI (left lifted increase and right lifted increase)
13:50 YO (yarn over)

I had always been confused as to what m1 slant I needed. Your clear explanation of if it’s on the right of the marker it’s a m1r and if it’s to the left of the marker it’s a m1l. Was just the statement I needed to place it firmly in my brain. Outstanding! I came here via a search prompted by a vague pattern that just said m1. I know enough to know it makes a difference in how your sweater is going to look--beautiful or wonky. I wanted beautiful; hence the search. Now I can happily and confidently proceed.

Thanks so much for these 4 increases, Ashley. When I do the YO increases, I do them a little differently bc when I’m on the next round and come to the YO, I knit through the back of the stitch instead of the front. That way, if you don’t want a lacy look, the holes are avoided. This is how I do my increases when knitting socks. Thanks, again! 😀

@liziking306 2 жыл бұрын

@Bobbie Burns - I do exactly the same way with the YO... but for whatever reason, I still get a little hole. I'm not sure if this is the nature of the stitch.

Maybe I tighten it a little bit, but I don’t get a hole in the toe increases at all, luckily! 😀

I have recently learned to do raglan. This tutorial is very helpful. One hint I use- to make one right I say “right back” ( like I will be right back) to remember that you insert the needle from the back. Then I know the left is the opposite.

@@lesliebowles3649 Haha, I have a weird way of remembering it. BF (Boyfriend or back to front) is right, FB (friends with benefits or front back) is left or wrong.

Thank you so much!!! First for not using the "American" knitting method 😉 but mostly for doing this so easy and clear and showing all 4 methods. I have only done the 4th method, because I earned that doing a shawl. Beginner here. I am currently following a knitting pattern for a top-down knitted raglan sweater, and the pattern is not done professionally, it does not describe how to do a stitch, not even using an abbreviation. The pattern is clearly made for people who have knitted for many years and know how to do every method. ...which I don't! I have spent a few hours just on trying to get the "V" at the neck done right, and I could not get it to look right!!! This is clear and should be easy to follow, I have learned so much from this. THANKS!!!!!

@jonschaller 9 ай бұрын

If you use a right lifted increase on the right and a left on the left, your raglan seam will look similar in size to your other stitches and it will allow you to adjust the number of stitches between the increases just like your other raglan increases.

There is another one I would like to try where the increases are done on one side of the marker only to create a straight band across the shoulder part. I think I would have to increase in every round in order for it to work. I am not sure what to do when reaching the armhole area. I have seen it done but don’t remember what to do at that point. I love that look because it emphasizes the shoulder part. Love to hear what you think.
