Mods:

Long tail CO 4,5mm
First pattern repeat on 4,5mm, after that switched to 5mm

Sleeves:
Knit sleeves first (in the round, 2-at-a-time, magic loop)
PU 4 sts in armhole, decreased during next 4 rounds = 51sts. Next time I´ll decrease those extra sts first after some rounds, with maybe 4 plain rounds in between…
