Notes

2017-08-02

I used my Denis2go needles at first and my gauge was way off, it got too big. Frogged it and started over with the Addi-clicks (short metal lace tips) and back to my regular gauge.

2017-08-04

All in all, easy knit and my gauge looked a lot better with the metal needles. Still slightly less stitches per 10cm than required gauge but I could not go down another needle-size. I knitted size S while I think normally I would have needed an M. I followed the pattern exactly, though in retrospect I might have done a few decreases for better shaping.

It feel comfortable on my skin though, pretty pleased smile

I’d like it a little bit longer (5-10 cm) so I picked up stitches and frogged the ribbing.
