Notes

Converted to top-down. Added some short rows at the back for better fit.

Hardest part - to play with colours…. First try was turquoise-berry-grey, but somehow it didn’t work in knitting even though looked perfect in skeins. So I decided to use white instead of grey and now the result is more “bright” :)

Made the most STUPID mistake - put aside different number of sts for sleeves… Had to rip almost whole sleeve and body up to the armholes :(.
