Notes

My gauge as usual is off!! 20sts with 4,5mm needles before blocking, instead of 21,5sts with 4mm needles, so I knit size M.
I’m used to knit this yarn with 5mm needle so it’s a little tight, but since it’s a long cardigan maybe it’s not bad at all!

So happy with it!! Very CLEVER pattern, love all about this!
Make one modification : knit pockets with thinner yarn and stripes all the long.

I did the Raglan version, used less than 4 skeins for the main color, in fact I had one skein left and used it for the neckband, used about 60g for it.
1 full skein for CC2, and less than one for CC1.

The way I did it, I followed the instruction ( full of details and very precise ), but I knitted until the end of the hem, then put on hold and knit the sleeves, pockets, finish by the neckband.
Love the I-Cord ending , mostly for pocket, it’s invisible and make a very neat finition.
