Notes

15-01-2025

Scandinavian yarns
Needle 3.25 pre blocked 27st x 28rows
After little soak blocked 24stx 30 rows
Going to try needle 3.0

24-02-2025

Struggling with the right gauge
Calculating the gauge was 24sts x30 rows
It became humongous ,but has already steeked the v- neck and didn’t have enough contrast color 1
The only solution was the frog the steeked V-Neck and repair the thread thinking_face
Meaning untangle ,reconnect the ends together, winding little balls of each color, ironing the wibbly wobbly thread in a smooth thread scream
Fresh start with needle 2.75 and hope for the best
I’m now on the same point as 3 weeks ago but the result seems to be beter ,27 stitches x 28 rows
I don’t think it’s going to be the original length of 65 cm and skip the sculls and crosses
