Notes

16.04.2024 The folded hem on my needles today. Getting used to knitting with tighter gauge is going to take some time…
19.04.2024 Started again with a new CC colour that has enough contrast. Red it is, I love this colour and I hope I have enough!
29.04.2024 The chart ia finished! Now knitting the fronts. (2nd skein started at two rounds before the end of the chart.)
03.05.2024 The fronts are done and I am knitting the upper back.
06.05.2024 I’ve redone the front decreases.Ready for sleeves.
11.05.2024 Both sleeves are done. One sleeve took about 37g (143m)
12.05.2024 Finished knitting. I have 45g left.
yarn
MC 2.55 skeins about 255g /980 m

14.05.2024 Blocked and beautiful! I was a bit anxious about the neckband but it turned out fine! I’m still looking for suitable buttons.
