Notes

Improvised the pattern: Started with Joyride and took inspiration from Riddari for the colourwork.

Super quick knit, but after washing, the yarn grew like crazy - so I had to shorten the arms. Also, the yarn is piling a lot, so I cannot recommend it for anything else than felting projects.

CO 108 st. K2, p2 for 7 rounds. Continue in stockinette st (no increases) until the body measures 45 cms. Bind off 6 st on each side.

Arms: CO 24 st. K2, p2 for 7 rounds. Continue in stockinette st. Increase 2 st after stockinette round 4, 7, 10, 13, 16 = 34 st.
