Notes

My next testknit for Meiju K-P is another secret test for her book. It’s called Solina sweater… a lace stitch pattern yoke pullover.

Getting the gauge under holding my yarns double.
Used tubular cast on, as pattern calls for.
I recommend to use patternmarker; makes it easy to hold the lace yoke clear. After knitting the full yoke pattern (up to row 79), my yoke meassure 26,5cm.
Sleeves are separated slightly_smiling_face
Body is done, now onto the sleeves…

mods:

  • I shortened the body to 25cm before
    ribbing, because I’m small

  • as I know, Meiju creates really tight sleeves and I don’t feel comfort with this, I added a few stitches and go for the sleeves with 62 stitches

ready slightly_smiling_face
left yarn is: 2gr Holst Garn Tides and 48gr buttjebeyy
so the used yardage is: 1140m Holst Garn Tides + 1008m buttjebeyy

Thank you Meiju, for letting me test this cute design!
