Notes

Replace Alafosslopi by 2 threads of Plötulopi to get a lighter and softer sweater.
The gauge is 16sts = 10cm instead of 13sts.

notes: Cast on 156m for the body and 40m for the sleeves (increase to get 56m).
Need to get 228m at the beginning of the yoke.

XXL size in Alafosslopi and 13sts / 10cm gives the right size for my husband (about XL) when knitting in plötulopi and having 16 sts / 10 cm
