Notes

Natasja’s constructions are unique, this time she surprises with a great shoulder shaping

I decided to decorate my sweater with the bows.
However, I used a different technique. I pull the thread through the center so that only one side of the bow is the desired length and then wrap the thread twice around the center and cut the same length on the other side. This minimizes yarn consumption to the bare minimum and by not using knots, my bow lies flatter.

Edit: I insert the yarn double with a loop through the eye of the needle, but then pull one part long to the end.

The CC yarn usage is inclusive approx 25 m for the bows
