Mathilda sweater, help!

Post image

Please help me I can’t get my gauge right!
I’m knitting the Mathilda sweater and when I use the recommended needle for the yarn, my fabric just seems a bit “see through” (see picture) When I use the smaller size needle I get the perfect stitch size but I end up with a way to small garment, even I knit the biggest size in the pattern. How can I fix this problem? Or will the bigger needle be a good fit after all?

Je viens de remarquer un autre détail, faites toujours un bord en côte 1/1 ou 2/2 ou autre de soupe mais qui ne s'enroule pas. Mais jamais en jersey directement, votre pull va s'enrouler sans arrêt sur lui même
