shash busting project inspired by the pattern by Anna Maltz called marlisle from her book Pinguin.
The gauge using the black was 15 st / 22 rows for 10 cm. The gauge for the marlisle section: 15 st / 20 rows
Front pannel: Casted on 67 st. R1-3: stockinette. R4-29: garter stitch with 3 st stockinette each side.
Section marlisle: 30 st, one left and one right side, starting at row 30 and 44. Sections are 24 rows aprox.
Continued working until front pannel is 40 cm (around 84 rows). I added some extra rows with both threads. Before underarm i knitted only in black.
Underarm: casted off 3 st each side on one row + return. Continued with 2 rows both threads together. Afterwards continued knitting only in the green yarn.
