Lovely comfy cardigan, a little bit over sized length wise (especially sleeves) but on a cold day it is nice to pull the sleeves a bit on the hands. The perfect colour to wear with jeans and a plain white top under.

Gauge
Unblocked, Blocked, (pattern)
Stockinette: 23 sts, 32 rows, 22 sts, 33 rows, (24 sts, 33 rows)
Lace pattern: 24.5 sts, 33 rows, 23 sts, 34 rows, (26 sts, 34 rows - Good enough..

Body
Did 22 rows in patten before starting waist decreases (almost 2 pattern repeats). Meaning decreases and pockets were started on the same row. Also did all increases/decreases on the 5th or 11th pattern row (just stockinette).
Made body 2 full pattern repeats longer, which might have been a little too much.

Pockets
Added 6 rows of rib on the front of the pockets.
Fastened the bottom corners of the pockets to the rib of the cardigan to make them stay in place (see picture 5)

Sleeves
Modified and made long sleeves, CO 44 sts, made one row of sts before starting pattern, knitted 22 rows of pattern before first inc., then inc. every 6th row until no. of sts acc. to pattern was reached, then followed pattern.

Mods
Apart from pocket ribbing and long sleeves - adjusted body so that the same row of the pattern was used upon joining the sleeves and body.

Yarn
Plucky Knitter - Primo Sport, as always nice to knit and lovely to wear but the cardigan grew a bit during blocking. Love the colour but alternating skeins is a must.

Buttons in leather from Knappkarlsson in Gothenburg - which adds to the comfy feeling that the cardigan has.
