Notes

FROGGED January 2019 - nothing wrong with the sweater but my body has changed and it’s unwearably large on me now, so I’m recovering the nice yarn to use again :)


I knitted the 46” size with almost no modifications; I just added in a few extra stitches (10 in total) through the under-bust area to make a slight A-line shape.

I also shortened the length a little. The decorative lace/cable panel doesn’t curve around my body as much as in the pattern photo, but it is still a gorgeous detail.

The lace panel bunches up a bit on my neck, so I have to wear it scrunched like a cowl or flipped over like a shawl collar, but I’ve had this problem before so I think it’s me and my narrow shoulders rather than the pattern ;)

This yarn is holding up very well to wear, like every Zealana yarn I’ve tried so far, and it’s soft and cosy-yum.
