Notes
  • Cast on at the beginning of october, my due date was my birthday in early november :p
  • The beginning of this thing was the absolute fiddliest, since I had to count 6 different things at once. I recommend using a counter that can link counts (I personally used BeeCount, but a Sirka could work too, if you like that)
  • This yarn is great, but I had a super hard time getting gauge with it, probably because I already have super loose gauge to begin with…
  • The pattern does not say, but for S and M only, you will finish the shoulder and underarm shaping a long time before you finish the henley slit, so don’t be surprised if the directions look a bit confusing.
  • Planning to make the sleeves not boring by adding shadow cables to the back. It may be awful. I don’t care, this is for me.

I tried it on. I look like a high school girl wearing a bolero to prom. I need to knit at least 3 more repeats before I try that again. Luckily, my swatch did not grow at all after washing. So my sweater is safe for now.
