Notes

This sweater is AMAZING! The fit (how does she write patterns that always fit?!), the texture, the little details - everything! As if that’s not enough, the same can be said for the yarn - mmmmh, a perfect red! I LOVE it! Thank you for having me test knit Joji, it was a pleasure. And YAY! My first fingering sweater!

  • Swatching: I have 360 grams, all three skeins are on the heavy side of 115 g. ;)

Unblocked, 3.5 mm: 36 sts x 40 rows
Blocked, 3.5 mm: 32 sts x 40 rows

NOTES

  • Ribbing and sleeves on 3 mm, pattern on 3.75 - because that’s how it turned out.
  • Tubular CO. And tubular BO.
  • 110 grams left for sleeves and neck. I was only able to make 3/4 sleeves, but that was fine for me.
  • I forgot to change needles for ribbing on the body - ooops!
  • Started the ribbing on the body at the end of HCP - should probably have been after a cable row?
  • No buttons because - well, no buttons ;P
  • Sleeves
  • I accidently did the sleeves for size S - they turned out perfect for me.
  • I picked up whatever amount of stitches I thought it needed, then did a first round of decreases to make it fit the numbers in the pattern. Ktbl in all sts on this first row.
  • Changed the short rows from w&t to German, and totally forgot to account for the fact that you then need to do an extra k1/p1. I fiddled it a bit and it looks absolutely fine, but it’s worth remembering for the next time I go crazy and change stuff up ;P
