Notes

I tend to rib very loosely and since I don’t like when neck enlarge too much I generally prefer to use smaller needle than the suggested one. In this case I also CO 96 sts (as in size 1) and distributed 4 inc in the first knitting round to reach size 2 st count.

This is taking me very long.
I didn’t particularly enjoy knitting the grains. Maybe because I tend to knit a little on the tight side and also probably becasue i used 3 strands. It was a bit of a knightmare.

Yoke took me more than 9 months…. like a baby! slightly_smiling_face
And 2 weeks for the body and sleeves.
that was a lot.
I like the result but I didn’t like knitting the grains.
I am not sure if knitting them in one strand would be different, maybe it’s because I’m a tight knitter….
Will see if I’ll make another in the furure.
