Notes

24-10-13: Eek! The baby has arrived early! Better get a wiggle on!
Completed 15 repeats after splitting for sleeves.
Cast off using 5mm needle.
Tried sleeves on 4mm cable, but it was creating ladders, so switched to 3.75mm DPNs and completed 13 repeats.
Trust the sleeve numbers in the pattern, as others have said, they do work.

A clear pattern, but I’m only giving four stars due to a lack of schematic/measurements.
