Notes

25sts over 4” on size 6, 8 rows over 1”

04-17-2018

CO and short rows with size 6 needles, one color knitting on size 7’s, and colorwork on size 8’s. I feel awkward… does anyone else in the world have to use such huge needles to get close to gauge? Last year I was a rather loose knitter… don’t know what to think about this turn of events!

07-01-2018

262 sts around body.

26g lolodidit per sleeve, use Malabrigo for chart and bind off in Lolodidit

I used every single bit of my main color and pretty much copied Maduixa76’s version with those gorgeous shorter sleeves. I absolutely love this sweater!
