Notes

Same pattern but for fingerling weight yarn FW04 on the website, but doesn’t seem to be here in Ravelry.

Cast on for the 24 month size using slightly thicker yarn than suggested - pattern calls for fingerling, rather than sport but I like tighter gauges so it’s all good.

Decided to do this in the round rather than sew pieces together (might need to do some math to work out how to attach the sleeves seamlessly :) )

Black sport weight seems to be thicker than the aran weight contrast colour, at least thats how it feels when you knit it. I don’t think Mochi Plus is a true aran weight, feels more like a lighter sport weight.
