Although i went for a size 3, i did an extra repeat to add to the length. As a result, i was short of yarn, so i finished the sleeves with a grey yarn from my stash. I also opted for a 3 and 2 rib for the sleeves as my hands were getting very tired of the cables.

The pattern is clear and well written. The yarn is nice, coming in lovely shades and shows the cables well. However because it’s 50% linen, it’s not stretchy which makes knitting cables very hard work. I would certainly use the yarn again, just not with this pattern .
