February - both projects done! So different but both so beautiful.

Finished measurements on mine:
Bust - 42”
Length from underarm - 12.5”
Yoke depth - 10”

The silken fine is heavenly next to the skin and the mohair dresses it up a bit. I’m so pleased with my FO especially as I gambled with yarn choice.

I had never used Knitting for Olive cotton/merino before. It’s more cotton than Holst Coast and therefore a tiny bit thicker. Hard to make a good comparison as it was held with the mohair.

January 2023 - a mini KAL of sorts with Penny. I bought her the pattern and a gift certificate for yarn for Christmas. She’s using Baby Yak Lace as suggested by the pattern while I’m using something completely different from stash.

I intend a short sleeve, summery version.
I think my gauge is closer to 26 than suggested 22!?

Alternating skeins of the Silk Fine just in case.

Yoke to sleeve separation fit seems ok. Will carry on with as it’s just so darn pretty!
