Notes

Just had to cast on for this one asap… and finished it in a week: a combination of knit-obsession and snow-incarceration scream

Mods: added an inch to the body (before beginning the lace), and 2 inches added to the sleeves (1” before and after the lace).

Yarn: a beautiful combo of the 2 yarns to create a downy-soft fabric… really lovely. I didn’t use anywhere near the yardage stated though (albeit I substituted the yarns).

Pattern: very clear and straightforward to understand, which makes for an enjoyable knit! I loved the gentle increasing in the yoke (the design just so didn’t need raglans); also liked how the nupps were constructed, and the alternate increasing on the sleeves - all very ingenious!

NB: I believe there’s an error in the sleeve length measurements in the written schematic at the beginning of the pattern.
