My gauge: 22/32
Loved both the pattern and the yarn. Bound off bottom ribbing in size larger needle.
One full skein left over.

Notes from the forum:
st+YO:
You slip the stitch in question with the yarn in front, then you turn. The yarn is now in the back. Then you do a yarn over and then you slip the slipped stitch. The order on the right needle is: yo, slipped stitch.
When you then come to the turn point in the following round, you slip the stitch before the yarnover (so NOT the turn stitch from the short row, but the one to the right of the turn gap.) You slip that stitch knit wise and put it back onto the left needle and knit that stitch together with the yarnover through the back loop.
This st+YO turn on the final turn is tighter than other short row turns and combats that last, usually sloppy short row turn. Hope it works for you
Knit and purl picking up the stitches sleeve:
So you have into one edgestitch
-one knit stitch (with right needle from front and pull yarn from back to front) and
-one purl stitch (with right needle from back and pull yarn from front to back)
For a neat faux seam: pull the left needle away from the right needle, before doing the actual stitch, so that the tension between the actual stitch and the stitch before it of the round underneath is readjusted and the tension of the current row is not to lose, which would make the faux seam looks “hole-y” otherwise. Do this with each side seam stitch.
