Experimenting with motifs. 6.5 and 8mm was too loose, switched to 5.5 and 6.5 instead.
This sweater is long and fairly narrow in shape. Not a huge fan of the yarn I chose but wanted a superwash. If I made it again I would use a loping or something more “wooly”. I am also not a fan of using bulky yarn for a stranded sweater especially for a child.
I think this sweater should be lined.
