struggled to achieve gauge while doing a swatch in the round (I was about 2cm short) so went with size 9 for the main body, which was a fabric I was happy with. Once I got into a few inches of the stranded color work I sized up to a 10 and might go further to a 10.5 or 11 depending on how the next few rows look.

overall SUPER fun to knit! trying to learn a new yarn hold to hold both colors continental but for now its still easier to use both hands.

I was not successful in my last stranded color work sweater attempt, so I installed some lifelines around the yoke for sanity too.
