Notes

I have been eyeing off this gorgeous pattern for so long, and particularly love flikafish’s mods for a straight front so I will be following her variations.
Decided to use Q&Co. linen from my stash to make a summery version. I am in love with this yarn!

Loving the pattern, easy to follow and satisfying to knit.

mods: as per flickafish
-increased to 10st for fronts before front radial eyelet increases = 5 eyelet rows
-no short rows
- stockinette for front band

  • no rib for cuff/hem just bound off stockinette
  • knit body first, no additional stitches cast on for sleeves (they were turning out too wide) -picked up 3 sts for each sleeve

swatch notes: st gauge matches = 24st:4”, row gauge out - 38st:4”
may need to add additional rows to yoke (didn’t need to in the end)
