Notes

Worked top down to maximise yardage.

Used combination of Icelandic cardigan pattern and English sweater pattern.

Cast on 66 stitches (5 for steek) and worked short rows for back of neck before starting yoke chart.

Sleeves: 60 sts was too large, so reduced to 48 sts at underarm over 4 rounds, then 2 sts every 8 rounds to 32 sts.

Addd in waist shaping with 7 rows between decreases above waist and 5 rows between decreases below waist.
