Help needed with Kimono

The back of my kimono looks good, but when I started to decrease at the wrist on the front it does not match up that well. In binding off it looks like steps and the very edge does not match up. Any suggestions? Sorry I can not add a picture.

I would also love to hear how you increased the pattern for an older baby.

I wrote about this same problem a while back, and got encouragement that those steps would disappear into the seam, and indeed they did. I also found that the increase and decrease steps looked very different, but I was still able to match them pretty well when it came time to sew them up. Good Luck!

Slipping the first stitch as you begin to increase or decrease will help make a tidier line than the "stairsteps"
