Notes

3/2024
Lovely pattern!
Knitting all this ribbing can be a bit tedious, but well worth the effort!

ColourMart Cotton 2/18NM Heavy Laceweight stranded with some fingering Baby Alpaca. Great touch and nice drape.
Shallow neck for both front & back.
3.75 mm needles for the braids.
Narrower sleeves worked straight and finished with twisted rib cuffs.
The fit is very nice, but I should have knitted a longer front part. At some stage I will unravel the I-cord adding 1.5 - 2 more inches.
250 g (185g alpaca + 65 g CM cotton lace)
