Notes

06-April-2014 : Done, and looking good. Only needs ends woven in and blocking :D

19-March-2014: Finished the spiral stripe. I estimate I used about 15 grams each color for the spiral stripe.

17-March-2014: I need a bigger size on the hips than on the bust, so I´m making it more A-line by starting with a bigger size (M). After the waist decreases, I only increase back to the stitch count of size S, instead of size M.
I’m using 2 very different colors, so when I got close to the end of the first skein, I started a spiral stripe. I think I could have waited until I had less yarn, but I was away from home and couldn’t weigh my yarn, so I just went with it. Hopefully I will remember to weigh my second skein when I run out of the first, and be able do estimate how much yarn I had when I started striping.

01-March-2014: Swatching with 4,5mm needles.
Before blocking: 18,5 sts / 28 rows = 10 cm, in stockinette.
Blocked: 18sts/29rows
