Notes

Yarn amounts are a guess as I didn’t keep track.

I don’t have the pattern so this is an “inspired by” version. Mine is 39 stitches wide, 20 rows of stocking stitch in mohair on 6mm needles and six rows of garter in tweed on 5mm needles. I started with a tweed section not a mohair section.

Three mohair sections and then seven panels in just tweed in stripes of 6 rows garter and 24 rows stocking stitch, ending with another three mohair sections.

If you use either of these yarns then wash/block them before using the garment - it makes a HUGE difference - so much softer and feels better quality (I must remember to wash my swatches).
