Notes

Knit along with TWT Sweater KAL Aug-Oct.
Ordered the kit from TWT
The Rauma in the only color left that day, which is teal so it must have been fate!
Bring for Norway cruise and Rauma mill tour!

Swatch: Used US 7 for RS and US 6 for WS and I figure that the slightly larger gauge will even out (tighten stitches) once actually knitting more fabric. Going ahead to follow size 3, will do a gauge check along the way to change raglan increases for body or sleeves as needed.

Finished the yoke, separated for sleeves, and on body to specified length.

09-18-2026

Finished hem and button band. At hem edge of button band had 3 knit stitches to try to avoid the upward pull.

Started left sleeve; will start right sleeve and work them in tandem to keep even. Might switch to 2AAT same needles if use a longer cable.

Since I have a ball+ left over…I am thinking of adding some pockets.
