Notes

I like a snug fit so I ended up with some modifications.
3.75 up until the cable turns to the right, 3.5 for the rest. Decreased on every other row so it’s four rows shorter.

Actually did one first on 4mm and then tried a decrease on about every row because I felt that it was coming out too wide in the crown, and then it also came out to short.

In the second try I still felt it was coming out to wide in the crown and ripped back to where the cable turns to go down more in needle size.

So 2.5th time is the charm.

I think I’m going to make a smaller one with the remaining 44g of yarn - want/need to work on reducing leftovers in my stash and this is a weight/colour that I will have a hard time combining with much of the leftovers I’ve got. Also, I think I need to to weigh before I stash yarn, 48+44 != 100g
