Notes

Bought this yarn mainly because I wanted free postage on an online order! Had fallen in love with the Elfe pattern earlier in the day. Haven’t knit with cotton before, hoping it’s going to turn out well!

Can’t remember which size I made, but my gauge was very different due to yarn substitution.

I hid my colour changes in the decreases around the top of the jumper, then used travelling jogless stripes under the arm (the slip 1 method) and they are virtually invisible. I also carried the yarn down the side because I hate sewing in ends!
