Notes

Start as the pattern call, but see that it wasn’t going to be quick. The openwork stitch isn’t difficult, but required me to be a slower knit. This pattern is already big, so adding a slower knit, this would take ages to end…

I decided to change the stitch pattern to a simple k5 p2 ribbing, to make it more quickly!

04 May: It’s realy a lot of stitches, is going slow…

Decided to make this cardigan smaller. So for the opening for the sleeves I made it with 7” wide and after that with 4” wide.

The sleeve I started by picking 66 sts, and made it with 7 “. The last 1” I made it with a k5 p2 ribbing.
