Notes

Gauge: 4mm needles - 22s x 28r

Firstable so happy with the testknit, I ran into problems when I decided to use the jogless stripes method instead of moving the beginning of the row to the side, as explained in the pattern. Bad idea!
Then I ran late because of a long flight to Japan, and came back home so disappointed by my pullover that it took 2 extra months to finish the body.

Time to try it on… Awful. The result is too long and too wide, my gauge went bigger as I progressed in the knitting. The colors are dull, I would have prefered a more summery palette.

I feel sorry for Isabell and the super pattern that I had the chance to test, but I had to stop and frog it.
