Colour most accurate on swatch pic and stash entry.

1st May, 2024
Finished 3 of 4 fronts.

The designer tells you to not use a provisional cast on.

LISTEN TO HER.

I did not, and had to deal with the grid pattern being offset. I fudged it so that I’m happy with it. But don’t be me.

Knit one half sleeve because I wanted to decide on the final length once the body was finished. Might skip further decreases because I have big arms from my upper torso.

Apart from my own stupidity, this is a very fun pattern, perfect TV knitting, great for speckled yarns. The construction is really clever.

4th April, 2024

Connected both right sides last week. This is so much fun to knit! The pattern really lets the yarn and its speckles shine; yet it is not too challenging for a TV knit.

… as long as you’re paying attention to the slipped stitches. Don’t be me and then complain about having to tink 300 stitches.
