Notes

17.08.2024

I was starting to knit sleeves when I realised that the sweater is too small for Isabel. There isn’t enough positive ease. I ribbed back to the armpits and continued raglan increases four more times. That means that the body has 16 more sts and each sleeve 8 sts.

18.08.2024

The sweater weighs 260 g.

09.01.2025

Natalia is taller but slimmer than Isabel. I will start with the same size (12-14 years) as Isabel’s sweater. I will not need to enlargen the width of the sweater, possibly reduce compared to the selected size.

25.01.2025

In the sleeves I made only 8 times decreases and they needed to be over 50 cm long measured from the armpit. The length of the body is 37 cm also measured from the armbit.
The sweater weighs 275 g.

10.05.2025

Isabel thinks that the sweater is too itchy and gave it to Victoria.
