Notes

Thought about knitting the Syli sweater but ended up using the Kobolt sweater pattern low key as a guide because this is knitted flat and I really wanted to machine knit a raglan pullover.

Made several swatches (on silverreed LK150 machine),
tension dial 8 -> gauge 16.5 st 22 rows gave the best drape.

Made a size 5 to get aprox. size 3, which equals 14cm ease for me. All ribbing done by hand with 5mm needles. Neckline ribbing only 10 rows.

Final dimensions: bust circ. 110, length 65, sleeve width 38, raglan depth 23, sleeve length 45cm from underarm

Turned out very nice! Easy wearing wardrobe staple (only €40 for a change). The yarn is sturdy and not very soft but fine with a shirt underneath and it will probably hold well.

ribbing loosened up with wearing, I might redo the cuffs with smaller ndls. Or make another one woman-tipping-hand
