Notes

Such a fun knitting project. I don’t want to stop.
I didn’t do a swatch though.
It feels a little bit tight after dividing for body and sleeves.
Decided to rip back to round 31 on the yoke.
Round 32-36: I repeated round 4-8 = 300 sts.
Now I continued with section 4 in the pattern.
I have a lot more sts than in the pattern so my sts for front and back is 102 (34% of 300 sts) and for the sleeves 48 sts
(16% of 300 sts).
Section 4:
Added 5 rounds:
10: knit
11: increase
12: knit
13: increase
14: knit
Section 5:
Sleeves: 64 sts Body: 236 +6+6= 248 sts

2019-05-04:
I don’t have enough yarn. This is because my gauge was way off. Decided to reknit the whole sweater with larger needles 7mm. Now the gauge is spot on 14sts/10 cm.
Now it’s possible for me to knit the sweater according to pattern.

Finished my sweater and I’m over the moon happy with the result.
