Notes

Only 6 skeins left, 4 off white, 2 yellow - hope I can squeeze another Ranunculus out of this.

CO 60 stitches, my normal twisted German cast on
Knit first 3 rows open to avoid twisting.
Did only kfb instead of lifted increases after ribbing
Did normal k1, not tbl
Knit one plain row after increases

Fun fact: Mine is number 14.029 when I cast this on end of July 2022 - my last one in July 2020 was no. 6001

July 26, 2022

Finished last round of circular yoke increases, close to starting the Raglan

Separated sleeves from the body, switched to size 4, want to have it a little looser.

August 1, 2022

Finished body.
Picked up 59 stitches for 1st sleeve
Knit 20 rounds plain without decreases,
changed to yellow, knit 1 row, decreased to 53 stitches in the second round, started short rows then.

August 1, 2022

Finished knitting and sew in ends. Quite like the Icord bind off and the diagonal cuff line. Ended up using app. 3.5 balls of the white and 1.8 balls of the yellow yarn for a cropped version (app. 43 cm long before blocking and elbow length sleeves. I think I would like to make another one
