Notes

Finally finished!

It took some aggressive blocking to tame the unevenness of my Fair Isle technique !

Tips:
I knitted this on a circular needle
Circular knitting, esp in Fair Isle, leaves no margin for error ito knitting the garment too small, you need to swatch a substantial piece for the correct tension
On Colour: In stead of substituting similar colours to those on the chart, I am going to feel it as I go along next time! I am not totally happy with the way the colours worked on this version esp the red and yellow
