Notes

Held yarn together. Used 3.5 as main, 4.0 for pattern. Wonderfully clear pattern, as always from Ankestrick. Played intense yarn chicken with the Mini Maiden such that I had to make the sleeves a size smaller, and hope it could be compensated for in blocking.

The combination of yarns is beyond soft and luxurious.

(Actual colour is somewhere between the very gold and the very white of the photos…)
