Well. Two things come to mind (because I'...Hmmm. Well. Two things come to mind (because I've done them myself). One is that you might be splitting your stitches (the needles goes in between the plies of the yarn instead of through the gap). This can get you too many stitches. Or---I've also done the thing where I didn't have the yarn oriented properly after the last stitch so it looked like the last stitch was two stitches. There could be extra yarn overs--make sure you do those only at the start of the row...don't forget the k2tog at the other end when you're decreasing....these are just a few things off the top of my head. Hopefully this helps!Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00170032696624433205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8089227595191821356.post-6076265054242292932023-11-06T07:38:29.067-05:002023-11-06T07:38:29.067-05:00Why do I end up with 10 extra sets at the end

As the zip comes up the side, across the top, and then down the side, that's referring to where the zip will start/end on the sides. So instead of sitting dead center on the sides it's going to sit 1-1/2" UP from the side center. That measurement is based on preference (I like to place the zip a little higher than center to start/end. It allows the bag to open a little more). So depending on where you want that to be, that determines those flaps. If you want it to be center on a 6 inch high bag, they'd be 3 inch flaps. If you want it 2 inches from the bottom, it'd be a 2 inch flap and a 4 inch flap. The seam allowances get sketched in at the end, so those are finished measurement numbers you're playing with as you figure out what you like. I found it very helpful to draw things out on a big sheet of paper and fold it up and play with it that way to get a good understanding of how the parts come together, especially if you want to try different sizes. I hope this helps a little!Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00170032696624433205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8089227595191821356.post-34690329320956108542022-06-16T10:03:02.636-04:002022-06-16T10:03:02.636-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00170032696624433205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8089227595191821356.post-36940170932405944912022-06-15T13:34:14.023-04:002022-06-15T13:34:14.023-04:00your description of where the zipper has me confou...your description of where the zipper has me confounded - the zipper is sewn to another panel that sits on the top of the 6x10 side panel, and you need 2 of these zipper panels that will be 1-1/2" wide to equal the 3" width of the base and the addition of the zipper widths; so when you write about where the zipper is going to fall and that you choose it to be 1-1/2" "up from centre" -- centre of what? To me it reads as if you're altering the height of the bag;and how does this factor into the length you made the top panels and the bottom panel (where did the 1.5" and 4.5" numbers come from that you added to the side panel widths? I understand that they have to add up to the 6" height of the side panels, but how you got these numbers doesn't compute.) ..... thanks for any clarifications you can offer ....
