Notes
  • March/April 2024 Fogbound Knits KAL Link here.

  • Added 7 extra plain rows after 2nd and 3rd increase rounds in torso before lace border.

  • Turns out I really dislike the K5tog. I got through that on the body and the sleeves and hope to never see that stitch in a pattern again! It’s a struggle even with the use of smaller needles.

  • I did use the markers to keep track of stitches in the Starlight lace sections.

  • I alternated skeins for a large portion of the sweater when transitioning from 1st to 2nd skein “just in case” there was any difference in color in order to blend the yarns.

  • Could not really see how to block any “points” in the edging. This was not at all obvious to me and the pattern did not have any detailed info, so did the best I could!
