Notes

Slowly growing… had to frog a few cm´s and go down to needle size 3,00 mm for the stockinette part.

Finally finished, washed and blocked. And I love, love, love my new sweater! heart_eyes

The yarn is perfect for knitting fair isle pattern because it is a bit sticky. And it seems to be a bit scratchy at first glance but after washing it is soft and lovely.
