Notes

Well, I forgot to use the smaller needle for ribbing. Whoops.

Notes on ribbing that surrounds the face: in order to better shape the corners at the edges, I did a centered double decrease on each side every second row. This prevented the fabric from folding, and made the fit a lot better.

I also did the neck ribbing for a bit longer than pattern stated, so that it properly covered the neck.

Notes on yarn: Yummy. Absolutely soft and yummy. I’m so tempted to order more and make a sweater out of it, it’s so soft and buttery. The only thing holding me back currently is that the yarn will felt, and according to the description, it will also pill. I’ll cave in some day though!
