Notes

My first knitted top!
The original pattern says needle 4, but the pattern is to big for me. I hope it will turn out fine with needle 3.

25-6-2015 frogged and started over again. I learned what ‘gauge’ mend and how important this is.

1-8-2015 frogged and started over again. I learned that the cast on stitches should be devided by 2 (front and back), by 4 (k2p2) and by 6 (4 darts). sigh

18-8-2015 made great progress, back where I was before I frogged the first time.

25-12-2015 picked it out of hibernation and with the holidays it is going fast.

30-1-2016 Done!

11.01.2018

update: The knots broke in the washing machine long time ago (never put knitted garment in the washing machine!!), so I frogged it and gave the wool to a friend who knits socks.
