Notes

Photos taken with a 22 week pregnant belly - it seems all that cabling and the yarn make for a very elastic knit :) Hopefully it will fit just as good afterwards …

I didn’t make a lot of changes, but for the record here they go: shortened the length on the body and sleeves at the beginning (which I’m so glad I did or it would’ve looked ridiculously long on me), and added a few more waist decreases. The hood was done exactly as the pattern described, although I briefly considered doing some changes to it since I’d read it could come out too small, but happily it didn’t.

I haven’t blocked it yet, since I quite like the way the cables stand out at the moment, so I’m hoping it stays the same after a good washing.
