Notes

Second one I’ve made! Decided to pick out pattern in a contrasting colour… My first time! I’m quite happy with the way it turned out. Gauge wasn’t quite right using the Cashmerino so I upped my needle size…. Should have stayed with original needle size as it turned out a bit big. Made the sleeves 40cms instead of 45cms as sleeves are always too long for me. Also added some short rows on the last 6 rows before the neck rib, only knitting the back and missing 20 stitches on the front neck part keeping pattern decreasing as I went….. May try ‘Owls’ pattern next although it hasn’t really been cold enough to merit wearing a thick pulley.
Does anyone know of a good way of joining yarn when knitting in the round?
