Notes

Inspired by the beautiful “Arrows” by Maria Carlander and based on the basic “Aftur” pattern that has never failed me so far.

It’s the first time I used Plötulopi and I decided to hold it double, which works very well - almost no ripping and the texture is very nice and dense. It’s a little bit thicker than Létt Lopi (but thinner than Alafoss Lopi) so I cast on 152 st for the smallest bodice size and 54 st for the sleeves.
