Notes

This was a quick, satisfying knit. The yarn is beautiful, very soft for such a rustic looking wool.
Gauge: 18 x 30

Mods (as usual)

  • Knitted in the round
  • Shorter ribbing
  • CO 144 st, started increasing after 6 repeats of chart
  • Increased 5 times every 12th round on both sides of the side st (rli, lli). Cabled the k incs, so it looks as if they are growing out of the center st
  • Started short rows for horizontal bust darts after 9 repeats. Very happy with how it turned out, they are almost invisible in the lace. Added a chart how I did them (last image)
  • Wider neckline, back higher then front
  • Sleeves: PU 48 st. Did 4 pairs of short rows to reduce underarm bulk and optimize the fit around the shoulder/ upper arm. Turning points 6, 10, 14, 18 st from shoulder seam

Very happy with this one! The fit is great and it looks cute with almost everything.
