Notes

Next testknit for Elenor Mortensen is a cute colorwork top-down sweater, again. I decided to use 2 totally different MCs. Let’s see what that looks like then…

Longtail cast on under using needle size 2.75mm, changed to 3.25mm before knitting short rows.
Body and sleeves are separated… now to decide how to join the red MC…
Elenor allowed to knit an additional part of the yoke pattern motiv at the body to introduce the second MC slightly_smiling_face

Off the needles, just in time v

mods:
after splitting the work I knitted 5 plain rows and repeat yoke pattern row 24 - 32 at body and sleeves each to join the second MC
opted to bicolored ribbings

Startweight Lazy Linen 113gr, Merino cobweb Lace 30gr
Left yarn: MC1 (red) 17gr, MC2 (orange) 16gr, CC Lazy linen (natural) 50gr

Yarnconsumption for my size is:
MC1 (red) 732m
MC2 (orange) 336m
CC (natural) 265m
plus cobweb Lace, which I hold double with lazy linen to get gauge

Thank you, Elenore, for having me in your testteam again!
