Notes

Pattern: Another well written pattern by Blue Bee Studio. I would actually like to make this again with a yarn that has more stitch definition as intended by the designer.

Split hem version.
gauge: 22/32- 5s

Yarn: Plucky Bungalow has been discontinued. This wasn’t my favourite yarn as it split easily and had no spring or memory to it. My stitch definition was terrible and blocking did not help. That said, it is the softest most comfortable sweater ever and I LOVE IT! I may even make a second one using stash Bungalow!!

Colourway: Moon Pie/a very light blue-green.

24g remaining/not enough for a noteworthy sleeve.

Mods:

  • Did only two decreases after joining in the round
  • Decreased 8x/10 rows (264)

Misc Notes:
Braid: Instead of working the first yo, knit into the front of the st, then k2tog tbl with that st and the next.

Contrasting colour braid: pick up stitches with the CC when working a contrast braid.
