First try (see first picture). I got so close, but… I made a stupid mistake at the collar (8 rounds in stead of 8 cm) and I didn’t see until now that I’m at the end of the body. Besides I don’t like the fit. It seems too big and bulky. I really want to start all over and make size S…

This has been hibernating for a while, but now I’m finally finishing it.

I started over, fixed the collar, and divided for “normal” sleeves. So construction for the rest of the sweater has been more like “try on regularly and knit until it feels like ribbing/ decreasing/ bind-off would be right.”

No oversize for me.

I only need to finish the last sleeve, and it looks really promising. What will wash and wear do? Stay tuned!

Washing did loosen the fabric quite a bit, so I’m glad I sized down. It’s soft and warm and I also like the colour.
So it’s actually my favourite of the few sweaters I have knitted so far
