Excellent pattern from Ankestrick, very detailed . The shoulders are perfect and very original the way to knit the tubular. I am used to ribbing in tubular but until now I have never used tubular with this method. I am sure I will use it again and again. I knit size 3 and fits wonderful.
About the yarn , this combo is perfect. Excellent drape

The only mod that I did is as my row gauge is different (36 vs 32) and the armhole is 20 cm (size 3) I must add 8 rows more. I have included them in the last four repetitions of the 5th set. I have knitted 5 stockinette rows instead of the 3 the pattern calls.
I love how it fits in my shoulders!
