Notes

Knitted in the round. Also worked everything except the cable in reverse stockinette. Made it a couple of cm shorter and it was still slouchy enough. Used literally like a yard of the 3rd skein; if I’d cast on 2 fewer stitches (to make up for knitting in the round) I definitely could have got away with just 2 skeins.

Love the yarn -- super soft!
