Notes

Testknit for al-fa’s new design

will do some mods to get a lower neckline

CO 9x14+2= 128sts worked 3 increase rounds every 4th row between the pattern repeats +24sts=142sts
Worked 8 more short rows than given in the pattern =156sts and set marker as follows:
15,M1,22,M2,2,M3,31,M4,16,M5,31,M6,2,M7,22,M8,15
now started to follow pattern in row 19 of section increases fronts, back and shoulders

Worked 4x4 decreases for waistshaping.

28g leftover from second skein before starting with pockets.

Worked less increases and ended up with 268sts for hem.

Worked buttonhole band, button band and pocket finishing, 12grams leftover from third skein.

Decided to knithe long sleeves version: 78+10=88sts, sleeve decreases 6 times every 4th round and 12 times every 8th round, 52 sts before cuff.

Needed nearly every meter of the 4 skeins. But be aware when you knit the pattern as written you will need more yardage. So I recommend to trust the yardage given in the pattern.
