Notes

I needed a break from the trials of my Three-Quarter-Sleeve Pullover that is portable and instantly gratifying and how good is this pattern and this yarn!

I had enough yarn to do an extra pattern repeat, but struggled with the picot bind off. As I had more stitches, Picots were cast on 2, bind off 9 sts (7 sts decreased).

A bit over 30 cm yarn left.

The yarn is beautiful, but the colour is not for me!
