Notes

Wanted to use up some wool in stash so looked around for something with this meterage and needle size. Had 1 ball of Linate, plus some mohair from a Patons factory outlet in Launceston, Tasmania (subsequently closed). A friend was clearing out her stash.

Found DrFun’s project notes really useful, especially her blog to get an idea of the overall shape before finishing.

Changed to (darker) Linate yarn for sleeves. Number of (sleeve) rows to neck = 30.

15 June
Up to casting off for neck. For front part of sleeves have changed to another yarn, Moda Vera Faith, as running out of yarn.
