May get 12 skeins of Andorra, cloud grey, for this.
I planned to use Wollmeise but after reading the words (lesson learned), I think it would be too heavy for the lace.

Well dammit, we only have 9.
Now what?
Holly Red! and got the perfect buttons for it, too.

this is on hold til cooler weather since it’s kind of warm for all this wool and mohair in my lap! :)

using the Addi fixed 32” & 40” lace tip needles. Yes, they leave black marks on my fingers and a metallic taste in my mouth, but I love them
Had to change to a Rocket because of the metallic taste and black stains on my fingers.

Sleeve yardage rough estimate:
18” around x 3 =54” (yarn per rnd or row)
54” x22” long sleeve (turn back sleeves) = 1188”
1188” x 5.5 stitches per inch = 6534”
6534” ÷ 36 = 181.5 yards per sleeve
I’m good on yardage!
ESTIMATION WAS GOOD- just under 1 skein used for sleeve 1.

Had to move the project to my giant Whimzee Stitches Organic Gardener bag. :O
1-30: 1st sleeve is finished, 2nd sleeve picked up and ready to decrease.
2-8: sleeves finished, ready to pick up for the front and neck bands.
