Notes

YARN / COLORS
This pattern has a gauge 1 (25 st) and a gauge 2 (27 st). I get gauge 2 with 3,25 and 3,5 mm needles and will knit a size 3.

Originally I bought a more orange yarn from Lindelicht to use as a contrast color. This did not have enough contrast.
Than i tried a grey yarn from Koperdraadje, but that was too variegated and did not show properly neither.
Than I tried a black yarn from Wol met Verve, but that also did not show the pattern good enough!

So on the Breidagen in Nijkerk I bought a light pink contrastcolor and hopefully that will show the pattern in a good way.

Split for sleeves in round 58.
Body finished.
71 gram left of MC for both sleeves.

Sleeves
I went for short sleeves, because I do not really like 3/4 length and i don’t have enough of the MC to make long sleeves.
So after the colorwork I knitted 5 plain rounds and ended with the ribbing.
