Notes

I bought 2 packs, each with 4 skeins in light cream originally, but decided to try my hand at dyeing. Here are the results wink

24.02.2021

so I wanted to take a break from the mass of stockinette and decided to cast on for the sleeves. Two-at-a-time. Casted on 58 stitches each as prescribed, took the time to spread them over the 42in circulars, and started knitting. All was great, until I reached the end of the cast on, and suddenly faced the fact that 58 is not divisible by 4 (k2p2 ribbing for the cuffs)… slightly_frowning_face . I’ll try that again, but this time each sleeve on its own and 60 stitches cast-on.
Tipp no.2 : if you go with 60 stitches, than the first increase should be in 20 rounds, not in 10, in order to keep the end stitch count the same.
