I have a vintage pattern for a fairly simple sweater from a 1970s Mon Tricot. The largest size is a 14 and I wear a 16-18, although I will double check the measurements. I'm wondering if I can enlarge the sweater slightly just by changing the guage, and knitting the rib as a test. The sweater is not especially fitted and would actually show off the stockinette/reverse stockinette triangles better if larger than needed. I've knit lots of scarves and have socks on the needles, but haven't done a sweater since the 1980s, and then I only did one. Madelaine
