Notes

Testing new cardi by Joji :). It’s impossible to resist such temptation!

Using the yarn from my Levenwick cardi - decided to rip it, as it was not worn much…
Love how it’s turning out - all those cables!

Great pattern, with very detailed instructions - and not boring! Thanks Joji for letting me test this!

Tubular BO and Knit Kitchener stitch - using this great tutorial

Mods:
sleeve: length 40 cm, 8 decreases.
I-cord on the button band instead of tubular BO

Weight:
Sleeves: 170 g
Total weight: 460 g
