collar in purple, switch to unicorn for body, intarsia with purple cable side button band - I think this will work out to the right amounts of yarn in the colors I have. may need to adjust bottom hem and/or sleeves depending on yarn usage.

separated sleeves - note, last front panel was +1 st, k2tog to get correct count (42)

September 26, 2025

for measuring yarn usage:

marker placed at beginning of row 5 of repeat 1 after sleeve separation
72gr remaining in ball 2 (unicorn)

September 30, 2025

measured after row 2 of repeat 4

41” wide x 3” tall - used 54 gr

(2.28 sq in/gram)

If I am doing the math right (16.5” diameter sleeve at start x ~10” = ~163 sq in, given relatively close to gauge) - then I should leave myself at least 70-72gr of the unicorn yarn

also:
1.93 gr/row of body
18 gr/in

currently at 5.5” from underarm, max is likely 9” - probably 63 gr still needed

Bound off body yesterday

Reducing sleeves on every 10th round instead of every 9th

October 13, 2025

knitting two at a time sleeves

as of end of round 5 repeat 7, 8.5” from picked up stitches at BOR

remaining yarn:
67 gr on larger (started at full)
31 gr on smaller (remaining from finishing body)

3.88 gr/in of length on sleeves so far (ofc this number will decrease as sleeves get narrower but good for rough approx)

at this rate, max sleeve length ~16.5 plus cuff
