Using larger or smaller needles will give you no control over the final size. It might fit, it might not. You're really just guessing using this method. To avoid disappointment, please don't do this.
It is possible to make the pattern larger or smaller; however, you will need to know quite a bit about how patterns work and garments are constructed in order to redesign the pattern at a larger or smaller size. As you learn, feel free to explore this area but as a new knitter, it's best to stick to the pattern as written. |
