Notes

Happy to testknit for talented Elenor Mortensen the romantical Secret Garden sweater slightly_smiling_face

Long tail cast on in needle size 3.0mm changed to 3.5mm after the short neckline. I made a short-term decision and added a third CC (gold), I had left over in stock from another project (Espresso Moon).
Body and sleeves are separated… very addictiv colorwork!
Both 3/4 length sleeves are done, back to the body…
aaaand off the needles
No mods, knitted exactly as pattern calls for my size slightly_smiling_face
Pattern is well written and easy to follow! Love every single stitch!

Left overs are: MC 44gr, CC1 (berry) 33gr, CC2 petrol 16gr
So the used yardage for mysize is:
MC 484m, CC1 (berry) 208m + (gold) 50m, together 258m and CC2 (petrol) 386m

Thank you so much, Elenor, for having me heart_exclamation
