I’ve been stalking FlickaFish’s Lila for ages now and decided to pull from stash and knit it. I’m very glad I did. The yarn was originally purchased as part of a kit for Kelmscott by Carol Sunday back in 2009(!). It’s been tough love on all of my craft stashes as I try to simplify but Angelic made the cut. This yarn proved to be a perfect marriage of yarn and pattern.

I changed up the hem, cuffs, and neckline. Instead of garter I did 5 rows of 1x1 rib for the hem and cuffs and followed FlickaFish’s tutorial on her blog for the neckline (you can see the tutorial here). I used a US5 for the neckline stitches.
