Notes

16.02.2016

I casted on 192 stitches for body (8 pattern repeat) because my gauge was so off.

25.02.2016

I divided body so that in both fronts there is 1.5 pattern repeats each and in the back there is 5 pattern repeats.

05.03.2016

I knitted sleeves in the round to the cap shaping. I made them according the smallest size, but after I had done all increasings I knitted rounds 47-54 four more times before I started cap shaping. I hope that sleeves are now long enough after blocking.

12.03.2016

I started to knit collar. For that I picked up 114+38+114 stitches.

24.03.2016

Yesterday I finished collar. For lower edging I picked up 243 stitches.
