Notes

I wanted to make this pattern for a while. Finally, after unraveling this project I decided to knit a summer version of it, with short sleeves (wouldn’t have enough yarn for long sleeves anyway).
The pattern doesn’t have schematics, but is very simple and straightforward. I really like the elegant way all decreases and increases are incorporated into the design. The whole garment is formfitting and elegant.
The yarn still looks surprisingly well even after all the abuse.
Mods:

  • Start all parts with 4 garter sts rows
  • Finish the collar with 4 garter sts rows

For sleeves:

  • Pick up 43 sts (second size)
  • Increase twice in every 11th row
  • Decreases like for the second size
