Calculated that I will have to kniw 60 rows in total to reach my armhole depth of 20 cm, so I will repeat my striping 2.5 times.

Neck opening:
44 stitches, i.e.
48 stitches for each shoulder
January 26, 2025
Finished front, will add 6 stitches under each arm
Plan to knit the body in 5 mm, but have to see if my round gauge is tight enough

Reached 2 row stripe in light grey after sleeve separation. Will put this on hold a little in favor of my Just Floats
February 4, 2025
Picked this up again after a break when finishing my Just Floats.
Finished 2 row stripes and 4 row stripes part, started 6 rounds of dark grey before doing 10 rounds in green.
Decided to always alternate the variegated with the solid colorways.
February 5, 2025
Started 10 round green stripe, I am 4 rounds in.

Measured that 1 pattern repeat (i.e. 2 -2-4-6-10 rounds) gives me 9 cm in length. Plan to knit 6 repeats and then the bottom ribbing for app. 4-5 cm
Currently working on the 5th repeat, might be able to finish the 6th repeat by beginning of next week.
February 11, 2025
Finished 6th pattern repeat, plan to do 2 stripes in dark grey, then ribbing with dark grey as well
February 14, 2025
PU 58 stitches around the armhole for sleeve 1.
Will knit a bit (app. 10 rounds or so) straight, then will do decreases every 10 rounds or so to 46 stitches.
February 15, 2025
Finished knitting! Did 10 row stripes for the sleeves, except for a 6 row stripes before the cuff.
