Notes

I’m very happy to be choosen for testknitting this beauty slightly_smiling_face

Impossible to decide about colors to use… for the flowers I buyed two shade bags on top to the listed colors.
As I’m not very familiar with steeking, it’s a great adventure for me…

I finally dared to cut steeks open…
Knitted the body size 2, but the sleeves size 3.
First sleeve is done…
To hide all the yarntails will took for ages face_with_rolling_eyes seems, I need to try spit-splicing one day…

My Iris sweater is off the needles v dancer::skin-tone-4 v and I’m so proud of it…

Left yarn is:
MC almond 29gr, MC oatmeal 3gr, CC jasper 38gr, CC brass 37gr, CC old gold 9gr
so the used yardage for my Iris sweater is:
MC almond 695m + oatmeal 270m, together 565m
CC jasper 356m, brass 75m, old gold 235m

Thank you so much, Anne, for this beautiful pattern and for having me for this test!
