Notes

General
My gauge is off so I’m casting on for XL in the hope of achieving something between M and L.

Holding both yarns together so used c. 668 meters.

Mods

  • not sure how long I want it so used provisional CO and will knit hem last,
  • grafted the back of the neck together instead of using a three-needle BO,
  • picked up stitches on neckpanel with 3mm needle,
  • undid provisional CO and knit downwards another 5 cm before starting border (the rice stitch panels are offset by half a stitch but you don’t really notice),
  • border garter 7 r + rice stitch 15 r + garter 7 r, BO on wrong side.
