Just because of needles currently available, will be working the edges on 3.25mm needle and working the body on 3.5mm - just like the first time I made this sweater, except this time working on a finer yarn.

I am making size medium again, gauge will likely be a little off so it’ll make for a slightly oversized sweater. Not sure yet if I’ll make short or longer sleeves, will see how much I can do with the two skeins I have. I might add a bit of waist shaping. I’ll try to make the body a little longer than last time, as I think the red one is a bit on the shorter side.

I added 4 decrease and 4 increase rows spaced 8 rows apart for waist shaping.

I finished the body yesterday, replaced the rolling hem by a straightforward garter st border. I still had 58g of yarn left so made two balls of 29g and now working the sleeves.

I finished sleeve number one yesterday, moving onto sleeve number two. I messed up a couple times on the lace in the yoke, and I failed to follow the instructions properly for the cuffs, so mine will probably look a bit different. Hopefully still ok thank god the pattern is very forgiving. Adapting to life with a baby is no joke
