Loved this little cardi from the moment I saw it! The merino yarn was in my stash already and begged to be knitted up. Tension a little small so I have gone up a needle size.
Making the rib section a size up (to accommodate my ‘pear shape’lol) then decreasing the appropriate number of stitchesat start of stocking stitch sections. Hoping this works ok!

1/9/15 getting back to this after working on numerous other projects over summer. Made a boo-boo by forgetting I had gone up a needle size and knitting half of one side in smaller needles - the ribbing seems a little tighter but over all i don’t think it will make that much difference ( I only say this because I don’t want to unravel hours worth of twisted rib…) hopefully it will block out ok. If not, well I guess I’ll have to do it again (lesson learned - make a note on pattern of any changes! You WILL forget stuff!!)
