Circular vs Raglan: Which Is Easier for Your First Sweater?

1. Only One Increase to Learn.
Circular yokes often use just one simple increase (like M1). No mirrored M1L/M1R to figure out like in raglans.

2. Fewer Shaping Rounds.
Only 4–5 increase rounds in total. In raglans, you’ll be increasing every other round.

3. Lots of Plain Knitting.
Just knit, knit, knit between shaping rounds. And a chance to practice your tension. 🙂

4. Fewer Markers to Manage.
One BOR (beginning-of-round) marker is all you need. Raglans typically use 8.

5. Lower Risk of Shaping Mistakes.
Circular yokes are forgiving: missed increases are less visible and easier to fix.
In raglans, missed increases can mess up the lines, throw off the stitch count between sleeves and body, and often mean ripping back.

6. Builds Skills for Future ProjectsIt prepares you for sweaters with stunning colorwork.

If you’re curious to try it, I filmed a full step-by-step tutorial for this type of sweater.

Friends, I need your help.
I’m doing everything I can to protect my designs from scammers — but I can’t do it without you. Together, we can do so much more.

Here’s the link to all Yarnora Facebook ads. 
👉 www.facebook.com/ads/library/?active_status=active…

If you recognize who the real designer behind a little cat is, please let me know. I’d love to cooperate with them so we can fight back together.

Here’s what you can do (it takes less than a minute):
1. Tap the three dots on their ad.
2. Select Report ad.
3. Choose Misleading or scam.
Done!
Please do this for each of their active posts. It’s so quick, and anyone can do it, not only the copyright owner. But you need to be logged into Facebook to report these ads.

_______

I already contacted Facebook Ads, but they ignored me (not a surprise). 🙄 That’s why I believe if we all report them together, Facebook will finally delete those ads.

I’m determined to block these scammers for good, so they’ll think twice before scamming anyone else.

Thank you so much for standing with me. Your kindness and support always keep me going ♥️

Love,
Julia

🚨 A Warning About Pattern Theft 🚨

Friends, I’ve just learned that a site called Yarnora.com is selling my knitting patterns — without my permission. They also operate under other names, like knitcy.com.

Unfortunately, these scammers block access from most European countries, so I can’t even see their Facebook ads or open their website. And it’s not just my designs they’re taking. Many other independent designers have been targeted too.

I’m so grateful to those of you who reached out to let me know! ♥️

If you come across their ads, please help by reporting them. Every single report makes it harder for these scammers to keep going.

Independent designers pour countless weeks (sometimes months) — of creativity, skill, and love into each pattern. When our work is stolen, it’s not only a financial loss — it’s deeply disheartening.

Thank you for standing with me and with all creators.

Warmly,
Julia
