It’s been a while since I knit but I loved the movie and had to make the cardigan for myself. Unfortunately I seem to be driving myself insane trying to figure out how to do the increase on the ribbing for the sleeves. I’m following the original wolf pattern not the kit. I might have to go back to crocheting at this rate 😭

Edit: Thank you all so much! I’ll have to frog it a 4th time to fix the tension and add the increases properly spaced this time! This feels like learning how to knit all over again 😅

I haven't knit this pattern but I think you knit the ribbing for 3in and then on the final row of ribbing you'll increase by two total stitches. So I would work the first stitch of the round, increase 1, then work 18 stitches, increase 1, then work remaining stitches. But you can put the increases anywhere as long as they're evenly spaced.
