It sounds like what you want to do is pattern grading which is different than pattern alteration. With alteration, you’re affecting one part of the pattern. With pattern grading, your either increasing (or decreasing) the overall size of the pattern, so going from one size to another size. Unfortunately, we don’t have a tutorial on this yet. We do hope to have one sometime in the future. In the meantime, there’s a great article on pattern grading which can be found here: http://www.threadsmagazine.com/item/4368/making-sense-of-pattern-grading/page/all
