Notes

My marled skeins are little bulkier than 2 other colors, so I am adding lace weight undyed alpaca strand to those to add little more bulk there.

Using the filcolana pattern as a guide only, my yarns are lighter and my squares are little smaller than the given gauge. Not adding ‘vertical’ triangles to sleeve openings, but leaving live stitches to wait to sleeve starts, so no need to pick up stitches and no sleeve seaming.

Used the same size needle for the ribbings. In neck and sleeve ribbings, the purls worked in combination knitting as it makes my rib tighter than typical purl.
