Help with Summer Secret Crop pattern
Thank you to those who chimed in to help me find a summer project! I did start the Summer Secret Crop (https://ravel.me/summer-secret-crop) but I need some help with part of the pattern.
Here’s where I’m confused. Once I switch to the bigger needle size, do I begin knitting with the increases immediately so I’m increasing throughout that 1.75” duration? or do I knit for the desired length (1.75”) and then begin increases?
I’ve looked at the notes and questions on ravelry and I’m not seeing any questions about this, so I apologize if I’m just being a bit thick… but any help is appreciated!! I’m just really not sure how to read this correctly.
Thank you!!
