Notes

Geez, this yarn is terrible to work with! It splits like hell.
The color’s wonderful, though.

This is not a pattern, but more of a formula.

My mods:

  • CO 100 sts
  • tee not a cardi
  • Garter st instead of ribbing
  • raglan increases under armpits (4 rows altogehter)
  • bust, back & waist shaping to make it tighter
  • elastic bind-off (crocheted)

Midnight Sky Pic was taken about three or four years ago, at night when me and my husband-to-be (I didn’t know it back then) were going back home from Inowrocław. It brings back really nice memories :-)

It’s really hard to capture the real navy shade of this blue. In reality it looks more like “Kate Middleton” shade of blue - you know, very similar to the V-neck dress she’s wearing during the announcement of their engagement.
