Notes

Overall thoughts:

  • The pattern is so beautiful!
  • These sleeves are so different and yet so stylish.
  • The neckline is a bit closer than I expected. I wouldn’t call it a boatneck like the pattern does. It’s more like a crew neck on me.
  • Wrong choice of yarn for me; Too itchy. That said, it drapes nicely after blocking
  • I’ll probably end up re-knitting this with other yarn for myself and give this sweater to a friend.

Adjustments:

  • Knit one round on larger needles between all lace and ribbing switches (not always noted in pattern)

I was worried I was going to run out of yarn, so I ordered two more skeins. But since I opted for the boat neck rather than the turtle neck option, I made it with 50g left of yarn on my fourth skein!
