I concur, it looks as if you need at least a narrow back adj in this pattern. You may not have a narrow back - but this pattern has a wide one for sure.<BR/>It's ok, but I'd also point out that if you make this again, you can Marjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08695305834402487163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-7840973960810199962008-03-06T16:39:00.000+01:002008-03-06T16:39:00.000+01:00You beat me to the origami tutorial.

I thought your shoulders look a bit wide and even your neck area looks a bit big.<BR/><BR/>Looks like if you took a wedge tuck below the yoke to your armhole it would dissapear. So maybe Tany's suggestion or raising the back armhole somehow. Maybe you can do this into the yoke piece?Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529416439720810403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-35060034924758389152008-03-01T23:18:00.000+01:002008-03-01T23:18:00.000+01:00Another thought.

I have a very erect back and while I have always taken out length I had never also narrowed the upper back until I was stumped and looked through all my fitting books. I also have a long arm joint and need to lower the under arm.
