Notes

My stitch gauge is off at 18.5 sts in 10 cm but I don’t want to use a smaller needle (currently using 4mm) so I’m following the stitch counts for the size 2 instead of size 3, but following the lengths for size 3 as my row gauge is fine. So far this has been a very quick knit! However I’ve now started the double knit ties and I can already tell I’ll be at these a while. I’m using 3mm for the ties and my row gauge seems to match the stockinette on 4mm.
