Notes

My first testknit for Teti Lutsak, so excited! smiley

Getting gauge with 4,5 mm. --> Switching to 5 mm at the beginning of the chart for the yoke because my gauge got off.

I started with a mock neck, but there’s another (very interesting) option for the neck at the end of the pattern.

Yarn
Holding one strand of the Jensen together with one strand of the Silk Mohair. I also used a strand of mohair for the CC because I wanted to change the dark brown of the Jensen to a more red/brown color.

Length
I will need to lenghten the body quite a bit (I’m 1.75 m). Instead of 3 rounds of flowers I made 6 rounds of flowers. Total length of the body is now 51 cm (measured below the back collar).
