Notes
  • Even though the photo looks grey and the yarn is called “Dark Grey”, this yarn is definitely an inky navy
  • 63 rows is 18cm
  • washed gauge is 28sts but will likely stretch out a little
  • yarn has beautiful drape
  • 3 more increases to go and one row takes about 1 gram and takes 7 mins to knit
  • longest rows after all increases take 8 mins to knit
  • set-in sleeves instead of rectangles
  • picked up 74sts and shaped sleeve cap initially going 12sts past half way point and one extra st each row until reached the 8 cast on sts under the arms and then worked in the round
  • 12 rows stockinette
  • icord bind off like on the neckline but stayed on 3mm needles
