Notes

Will start with 66 stitches in ribbing and will then increase, no smaller needles for me.

Added the paillettes yarn after ribbing, but this is nearly invisible. Will leave it out at least for the lace.

November 26, 2025

Finished rounds 5+6 of lace chart, started round 7.
Left out the glitter yarn for the lace part, so I do not have to work with 3 strands.

In artificial light, you can indeed say the sparkles, so all is good!

Tried a new way to knit a ssk as shown in this video (at 0.48) »
It basically insert needle in 1st stitch as if to knit, then in the back of the second stitch on the left hand needle, knit both together.

Separated sleeves from the body.
CO 10 stitches underarm instead of 9
Added the paillettes yarn in again after ending the lace part.

Ran out of the first ball of Nord in the second raglan increase round.

November 30, 2025

Ran out of first ball of thin fluffy yarn app. 7 cm after sleeve separation.

Ran out of second ball of Nord yarn app. 15 cm after sleeve separation.

December 2, 2025

Reached app. 43 cm from cast-on in the front.
My Sunday Morning has a total length of 51 cm, which I like, so I will knit up to app. 45 cm before starting the ribbing.

December 5, 2025

Started ribbing, ran out of 3d ball of Nord when starting it, wonder if the rest of the fluffy yarn is going to last for the body.

Started ribbing at 47 cm fron length, planning to do about 3-4 cm of ribbing.

December 6, 2025

Reached 51 cm front length, started binding off again with the wrapped knit stitch method I found on Instagram »

Picked up 64 stitches instead of 60 stitches for first sleeve, might decrease to 60 when knitting down, we will see.

Decreased 4 stitches (2 on each side of sleeve middle marker) after 10 plain rounds.

December 7 , 2025

Finished first sleeve, did app. 38 cm straigt plus 5 cm ribbing.

Ran out of the 4th ball of Nord app. 5 cm into second sleeve.

December 8, 2025

Finished knitting, now it’s soaking. Turned out quite heavy-ish, at least compared to the Ranunculus from Drops Air - maybe due to the Alpaca content.

Kind of like the crumply look pre-blocking - let’s see how this will turn out when it’s dry!
