Notes

I finished off 3 of my stash yarns in this sweater! Chuffed!

Tubular CO for size S - 86 sts with 3.5mm needle.
2 set-up rows
3rd row - join in the round.
Knit 7 rounds.
Change to 4mm needles.

Round 25 of the raglan yoke - start the intarsia chart.

Pick up 8 sts when dividing the body and the sleeves. 53 sts in total, as per instructions.
round 1 pick up additional 4 sts at each hole.
round 2 4sts->2sts
round 3 2sts->1st
round 4 dec the last additional st
53sts again

I ran out of the dark blue yarn before the sleeves or the body were finished, so there had to be a Plan B – frogging the sleeves and adding the blue colour of the intarsia part and another blue colour from my stash. The difference can be seen, but it’ll do – the stripes make it less conspicuous.
Was weighing and re-weighing the remainders every few rounds.

Change to 3,5 mm needles for the cuffs and the body ribbing.
Tubular bind off.
