Alternating cable cast-on. Looks tidy, but a bit tight.

Ribbing seems loose on 3.0mm needles, might wanna go to 2.5mm…
Swatch:
Pattern seems good on 4,0mm, but maybe switch to 3,5mm if stockinette is good on 4,0mm.

On 4,0mm before washing: 20,5st, 28-30 rows
On 4,0mm after washing: 20,5st, 30 rows

On 4,5mm before washing: 19st, 28 rows
On 4,5mm after washing: 19st, 30 rows

Plan:
Make size XS (88cm chest circumference). Will be about 92 with gauge being 5% off, so only 2 cm of positive ease.
Then do an extra round of increases (as intended for size M and up), then stitch count should be somewhere in between XS and S, so about 8cm ease.

Decided to move center front with 3st, so the stem of the leaf will be center front.
Moving the short rows, so a few stitches of short rows less on either side.

Must move BOR marker to mid back after lace section! (3 st)

Yoke almost finished. Did another 6 increases.
I think it will need a total of 5 extra rows to make yoke deep enough.

Total of 272 st: back 79, front 81, sleeves 56

Nooo! Mistake in row 45. Frog back and redo…

Cast on 11 underarm stitches

Sleeve: pick up 12 st from cast-on, then k2tog in corners. Still need to reinforce the corners though.

Starting with 20g of yarn.

Making them shorter: decrease in row 5 and 10. Total of 12 stockinette rows, then 7 ribbing rows. Knit row 12 with 2,5mm needles
