Notes

Inspired by Nefertiti busts found on the web and interpretations by artists.
Instead of Schachenmayr nomotta Extra Merino for the body I may use Garnstudio DROPS Karisma Superwash in turquise or dye a suitable yarn for dark petrol.
3 July: Yoke finished. I will use Schachenmayr nomotta Extra Merino for the body. Maybe just a west?
5 July: I decided to have no sleeves. I´ve used up three skeins of the petrol blue. Four left. I think I will opt for the lenght of a tunic and with some embellishment at the hem.
8 July: Now I am almost out of the blue yarn and I will knit some embellishment at the hem, remake the trimming around the arm openings and block the tunic/dress or whatever it is.
9 July: Finished. Just needs blocking and last photo.
10 July. Blocked. Should I shorten the small sleeves?
