Notes

So happy to be testknitting again for Natasja!

What a beautiful sweater, full of texture and lace.

There is a possibility to choose between 3/4 sleeves and cap sleeves. I was doubting but decided to go for the cap sleeves. They look so nice and I am sure I will get a lot of wear of a short sleeved top once the weather improves.

The pattern is very detailed and good. It is not a super quick knit, but it is a very enjoyable one. It never gets boring.

I like the Isager Merilin. I have more spring/summer tops made in Merilin and I think it is a perfect good weather yarn.

Modifications
The only modification I made was to lengthen the body a bit. Instead of 30,5 cm mine is 35 cm from the armhole (before blocking).
