PATTERN NOTES
You may find that you need to adjust needle size for the colourwork rows to achieve the same gauge as in st st. If you have substituted the yarn, test out the steek cut on a swatch. If it doesn’t hold together by itself, when it comes to the actual garment, you’ll need to sew each side with a sewing machine or back stitches.

SPECIAL TECHNIQUES
This pattern has a steek for each armhole.
A steek is a set of stitches that you cut through after it has been knit. You can steek any yarn, but whether you need a sewing machine or not depends on your yarn. For the recommended Hillesvåg Blåne you can use the crochet reinforcement method to stabilise the steek.
