Notes

26.02.2015:

Gauge with yarn held double (after washing):

26 sts & 40 rows = 10 cm in stockinette stitch.

27.02.2015:

Collar:

Provisional cast on 18 sts, 39 rows in st st. Undid provisional cast on, 39 rows in another direction.

Short rows in 13th and 33th rows.

27.02.2015:

Picked up stitches along the long edge of the collar. Use kfb, pfb increases.

01.03.2015:

Completed the shoulder increases. Start to shape the sleeve caps.

04.03.2015:

The yoke is complete. Divided yoke stitches for body and sleeves.

05.03.2015:

Changed to next color band yarns.

06.03.2015:

Began lower body increases.

10.03.2015:

Completed the second color band. Realized that light gray (Aade Lõng Solid 8/1) is not a good choice for the third band. Ordered another yarn and switched to the sleeves.

17.03.2015:

Completed the sleeves (10 rounds of double knitting on 2 mm needles at the bottom of each sleeve).

06.04.2015:

Finished the third color band (10 rounds of double knitting on 2 mm needles at the bottom).

07.04.2015:

Inner sides of the facings are sewn to the fronts. Need to wash & block.

25.06.2015:

Finally, photos. :) I am very pleased with the result. This is my first contiguous and I am completely satisfied with it. Anyway, it turned out much better than my first raglan. %) I’m very grateful to Olga Buraya-Kefelian for this wonderful idea and clearly written pattern.
