Notes

Size 1, all made to pattern.

This yarn has made a lovely fabric. It should stretch a little when blocked, it needs another 2” in width and length.
It was easy enough, but the star stitch was slow, and I left a thread behind a few times with the K3tog (I’d just picked up the fluff and not the actual thread), so had to drop down to fix it. Luckily I kept my eye on it as I was knitting, so I didn’t have to go back far. It would’ve been a pain to frog…
I made the bottom ribbing 2.5”, and the neckline was just 4 rounds.
I just used a normal bind off in pattern for all ribbings.
I tried the iCord and it looked a little too bulky, and no way was I going to do a tubular in this yarn.

Measurements before blocking:
Bust, 38”
Length, from top of shoulder, next to neck, 21”
Inside sleeve, 17”

Measurements after blocking:
Bust, 41”
Length, from top of shoulder, next to neck, 22.5”
Inside sleeve, 17.5”
