Notes

I’ve had this yarn in mind for this pattern for quite some time. The bamboo lends amazing drape to the wool. Very happy to have made it now.

Directions for this pattern are very well written.

The skeins I have are 266 y / 100 g ea, which are slightly different than what’s in the ravelry database.

Note:
This project has many stitches cast on and then joined in the round.
To avoid twisting, pull out a little extra yarn before casting on for the future mini-seam.
Work the first few rows ribbing in the flat.
When one has enough rows to arrange without twisting, join and proceed in the round.
Stitch up the first few rows when convenient.

Adapted for this yarn, 532 y.
CO needs to be divisible by 5 and by 8.
CO 210. Dec by two st after ribbing rows are done for main section.

Have 22 st gauge with US 3 needles. Gonna stick with that and adjust CO accordingly for 40” circumf.

Knitted flat in order to add button closure.
Added beads to the eyelets.
Placed a bead on the purl side of each yo.
