Notes

Started during road trip knittin’ with plucky (21 to 27th of April 2015) - completed 655.2 yards during the days of the competition.

This will be a summer favorite - the boat neck and the basic neutral marine colours on this striped sweater. It has some positive ease, not boxy but just enough to feel comfy <3

Gauge
Did not check the gauge but compared with other projects knitted in plucky and came to the conclusion that 3.5 mm was right, at least row wise.

Mods
Made 6 stripes on the body and ended up with a total of 11 stripes on the sleeves.

Yarn
Plucky Knitter Primo Fingering is great for stockinette sweaters. The drape of the fabric is fantastic and it is lovely to wear. Overcoat might be my dark navy favorite blue.
First thought that the colours are too American but they are more of the marine touch.
And, luckily the beige was not coloured by the red or blue during the soak - puh!
