Notes

General
My gauge is off but I like the fabric I’m getting so I’m going to cast-on for 3XL in the hope of getting L.

I love the marled fabric I’m getting with these two yarns!

It was much easier to keep track of when to add a new slip-stitch cable while working the shortrows than I feared it would be.

Using Grumperina's method for cabling without a cable needle.

Mods

  • following this example and slipping the last two stitches on the sleeve openings on the purl rows,
  • made sleeve opening 20 cm,
  • knit neckline the same as hem of body.
