Notes

Added a bit of length…cropped can be too cropped when you are 1.82m zany_face

3.25mm for hems
3,75mm for rest of project

With the short rows from the pattern you will never get a wide neckline like the pattern photo’s suggest.

I saw that in other projects too, so if you want a wide neckline , cast on more stitches and do not knit the short rows.

Other than that is this a fun knit and well written pattern. I like the outcome blush
