Notes

Using one strand of each yarn.

Almost all my stitch count number fall between sizes.

I adapted some motives transitions following my two favourites projects for inspiration. Maybe I will write more detailed notes later on. I took notes on my pdf.

I redid the first sleeve to start the diminutions after the elbow (after 33 pattern repeat for me) Then decreased each sixth row until I had thirteen motives, and then 2x2 ribbing with smaller needles.

The neckline was entirely knit with the 3.5mm needles. I diminished two stitches on each side of the raglan line on the first knit row. After the purl row, I decreased 1/10 stitches on the second wrong side row hoping for a flatter sitting border. I think it worked.

The colour is insanely difficult to capture. The best approximation is in the work in progress photos.
