Notes

Making up my own Lopi pattern, from the bits I like in others.
It’s a white jumper/cardi haven’t decided which yet with a focus on the subtle ray of light yellow.

Finished last night, I adapted the Rosa graph to an adult size and changed the bottom border heaps, I added purl stitches to the flowers for depth, I based the sizing on the large in the ar tresins pattern in the Icelandic knitting book, then when I got to the yoke I decreased and made the medium size. Fits perfectly, I am happy with this creation. Now to wash and then wear, I will post another pic with the jumper on once washed.
