Notes

August 17th, 2021:

Normally I would have chosen the 1st or the 2nd size, but I decided to knit the 3rd size because every garment that I knit with Drops Bomull-Lin shrinks after the first wash.

I am glad that I chose a larger size because, once again, when I took my Elorie out of the washer it was clearly smaller than before. I don’t know what I am doing wrong. I really like to knit with this yarn, but why does it shrink (in my case)?

Apart from this, I must say that I am very happy with my Elorie. It has been the first time that I have bought a pattern from Elizabeth Doherty, and it will not be the last… I like almost all her designs and really appreciate how well she explains everything.
