Notes

I LOVE THIS PATTERN !

Using ndl 2,75 for the Stockinette stitch and 3 mm for color work.

I have made some mods for personal reasons so far, because I want a little tighter fit.

First of all, half way through the project I realized that I only knitted 5 rows in between the stranded parts. One of those days! But it turned out quite well, because the upper body became a little shorter.

Section 7: went from 400 to 480 st by making a k5, m1l throughout the increase round.

Section 8: increased another 20 st, which leaves me with 500 st in total for separation row.

Separated after section 8: K4, pm, k171 for back, put 90 aside, cast on 5+15, k149 for front, put 90 aside, cast on 5+15.

I now have 360 st for body and 90 st for each sleeve.

Section 11: increased 8 st.
