Notes

20.07.2014: FINISHED!
I am very happy with the result. This is a lightweight, soft to the skin top, which weighs 88 gr. Yes - not even 100g !!!! Awesome! That was definitely worth all the struggle with the yarn and the re-calculation to the different gauge!

19.07.2014: While waiting for the yarn to arrive so I can start the ::testknit::Chinoiserie, I managed to take up this little beauty again.
The yarn did not get more stretchy though…;-]

13.07.2014:
Body and yoke are finished. Only sleeve closings and hems missing. But… Oh … Je suis tellement lasse de ce projet!

I need to put this to sleep.
The yarn looks great, the pattern is fantastic, but both together do not really form a team.

11.05.2014: My gauge is 26 st. X 38 r. = 10 cm
1st CO 80 st. but after several rows this came out too long. Surprisingly my swatch knitted differently to the real project. This never happened to me :-0
