Notes

Don’t be alarmed by the yardage used in this sweater.
I used lacewt, fingering, sport and worsted, multiple str tog.

What a great design!
Very well written.
This is a great one for mixing and matching various yarns that one already has. There’s no right or wrong to it.

Five coordinating yarns.
Each one is beautiful.
Multiple str tog as needed to get gauge.

A quick project.
Added length.
Worked each color for 10 rows, vs 8, per pattern.

Pattern is one size only.
Added a few more stitches to main sections cast on for a little more width.

Didn’t make the sleeves as full as pattern, but they’re fun as written!

Tone on tone version:
675 + 350 y super bulky
plus more for extra length
