Hello Aiste! I am having trouble getting the correct gauge for the Nida pattern. It says that you used a ribbon yarn, so maybe this is why since ribbon yarn seems to be bulkier. I have not used ribbon yarn for a project yet. I am using a standard sport weight yarn. With a 3.75mm needle, my 10 x 10 cm gauge swatch was 24 stitch (approximately) and 42 rows after blocking. I am going to try using a 4mm next but I am wondering why I am so off the mark with my gauge. Any advice on this? I also wanted to ask what the measurements are for the waist. It seems that you have given measurements for the body and shoulders but not the hem/waist, unless I am reading this incorrectly. Thank you very much for any help and time, Aiste! Your patterns are lovely and I am very excited to start making this sweater. Elizabeth
