Notes

This project started as Metro-knitting and helped get rid of the pain in my hands due to lot of purl-st.
Knitted in-the-round, I could concentrate on my fellow travellers to work ;-).

I used some stashed alpaca yarn I got for christmas, and I still have som leftover of the last skein. The colours are not traditional for this pattern, and I like it that way! Even though King Winter came back to Paris in april, it still gives me the feeling of springtime!

I am not happy about the neck-lining which is too wide. Hopefully, the blocking will soothe it down.

To hide the strands of the cut-off border in front, I sew a nice cotton-band on the inside of the lining.
