Notes

Birthday present for Hélène!
I knitted a Sweet Dream all in lace similar to my Sweet Dreams Nostalgy using the instructions of Crazyfabulous. My third one, but the second one in two weeks!
Soft and silky yarn in slightly variegated turquoise, the preferred color of Hélène!

I modified the picot bind off in order to finish with one skein and used 3 mm needles: cast on 2 sts (not 3), bind off 4 sts (not 5).

Weight of the skein: 99 g
Lace body (chart B):
Increase after each repeat of 24 rows: 72 stitches
-1st repeat: 109 sts, 91g, {->used 8 g from the beginning}
-2nd repeat: 181 sts, 77 g, {->used 14 g for this repeat}
-3rd repeat: 253 sts, 55 g, {->used 22 g}
-4th repeat: 325 sts, 27 g, {->used 28 g}
Lace edge (13 rows, before bind off): 7 g, {->used 20 g}
Picot bind off with needles 3 mm:
-cast on 2 sts, bind off 4 sts.
-about 4 m left.
Size:
-before blocking: 30x160cm
-after blocking: 40x173 cm
