Frogging old sweater Seamless Sjoerd and knit again, size larger and firmer
Another extra skein in stock, so happy now because the previous sweater is losing shape and the yarn on the elbows is worn out and thinner
work one size larger, longer and on a smaller needle size 3.00 for body and 3.25 for sleeve

update
knitting with needle 3.25 gives 23 stx 34 row,
quiet sloppy result, the yarn is from the frogged sleeves, so much thinner from wear, I’m going to throw this yarn in the trash.
knitting with needle 3 and yarn made from the body gives a firmer result and 24dc x 36 rows
I knitted the Zimmermann cardigan Elizabeth Zimmermann’s green sweater 12 years ago and it’s too small to wear, I checked my note and it was only steeked on the armholes, so this cardigan is also going to be frogged and reused for this sweater yes
