I had to put the swatch on 0.7mm aside as it was really taking too long to knit even one row, and my arms and hands were hurting.

So I first finished my swatch on 1mm needles, 60sts in the round.
This was so much easier! The needles seemed a better match to the yarn thickness and didn’t bend with each movement of my hands.
My knitting tightened up partway through the swatch and I got a gauge of 7 sts per cm.

Finished the swatch on 0.7mm needles, also 60sts in the round. Got a gauge of about 10 sts per cm.
I have lost a needle somewhere along the way, none of hte others are straight anymore.

Cast on on 7 July, and restarted on the 9th because I did not like my cast on edge.
Finished the cuff today. My knitting got tighter the further I got. Hope to tighten my gauge up just a stitch more. I’m knitting on 1mm needles.

Total knitting time: 239hrs and 1min.
