Notes
  • Gauge 27 x 35 before blocking
  • Body knitted in 3,5 mm
  • Neck ribbing knitted in 3 mm: 10 rows (a bit less than 3 cm). Bind off in 3.5 mm and 8 g used.
  • 26 g used per sleeve
  • a bit less than 2 g used / row for body

Seulement 10 rangs pour les côtes du col et des manches (un peu moins de 3 cm), et 12 rangs pour le bas. Le tout tricoté en 3 et rabattu en 3,5.

26 g / manche
pour le corps, un peu moins de 2 g de laine utilisés par rang

J’ai alterné les écheveaux sur une dizaine de centimètres à chaque changement et utilisé la même pelote pour le col, les manches en jersey envers et le bas du pull.


12/25: just joined back and front. I LOVE the construction so far, such a clever pattern! But I must say that I am very fond of picking up stitches, so this is just perfect for me :)

12/26: knitted neck ribbing and right sleeve

12/27: finished left sleeve

Now, the top is finished… It is all about knitting in the round and using up my yarn to get as long a body as possible. Hope it won’t end up too cropped.

01/04: Body almost finished, and luckily the length looks already quite fine.
Since I have around twice as much stitches for the body than the collar, and plans to knit just as many rows, I decide to start the ribbing when I have 18 g left, which should be fine.

01/05: Added 2 extra rows of ribbing in the end since I have 6 g left before the final bind-off.

All done! 4g left :)

Après avoir rejoint les épaules et commencé le tricot en rond, j’ai laissé le corps en attente pour faire le col et les manches dans la foulée. Ainsi, j’ai pu utiliser la totalité de ma laine en faisant le corps aussi long que possible. J’ai commencé les côtes du bas alors qu’il me restait 18 g de laine.

Au final, il reste 4 g de laine.
