-If you want your pockets to be a little more relaxed and less bulky, try going up a needle size while knitting the inside of the pockets.
-When knitting with interchangeable needles (Julie's favorites are Addi Clicks), you can use the smallest Stitch Stoppers to hold body stitches on the longer cord with the needle tips off. Then you can pop the tips on a shorter cord to knit the pockets. This way you won't need to transfer all those stitches to put them on hold, making the whole setup way less fussy.
-Everybody likes their pockets at a different height - Julie likes a higher pocket so you can expect that from the patterns. Take a moment to note where the pockets are created in your pattern. If you want to knit them lower or higher, simply knit more or less length on the body before you start your pockets.
-If you have a tighter-than-called-for gauge (or just want wider pockets) you can add a few extra stitches to your pockets to get the desired width. As long as it's stockinette or garter, this should be as easy as knitting more stitches across.

Hi Anna, Thank you for your interest! We are working to translate patterns. Please check back later.
Mi piacerebbe molto fare una vostra mglia, ma con il pattern in italiano.
