I had a lot of fun test knitting this pattern for Nadja and I would highly recommend the pattern. I’ve had many compliments on this garment.

I had to go up a size with my needles to get an appropriate gauge. Even then my gauge was .5in off in the length so I knitted 58 rows before I started working in the round.

I especially liked the bind off for the sleeves. In reading the instructions it seemed a little odd but it made for a beautiful finish. I’m going to keep that stored away for future use.

If I were to make this again I would add extra length to the body. It seems that it fits others but I could have done with an extra 2 inches or so in the body.
