Hi Sana,
Hi Sana,
Hope you're well. As usual I need your help. My gauge - 2 repeats: 3.5 ins. Chest circumference: 36 ins. How many chains do I need.

Hi Salma,
Hi Salma,
I would suggest you to start with about 157 chs to work 4 repeats for each shoulder part and 9 repeats for each back and front parts. Happy crochet!

Hi Sana,
Hi Sana,
I started with this pattern with 127 fc as mentioned in pattern with 3.5mm hook. I have reached till arm holes, i feel it will be little bit small arm holes for me. I don't want to start all over again ;( Shall I use 4mm hook from round #12. How will the top look if I jump from 3.5 to 4 mm hook. In your video you have gradually increased the hook size.
TIA
