Notes

I’m happy to testknit for Teti again slightly_smiling_face
Voloshka or Cornflower in Ukrainian is inspired by this beautiful meadow flower.

It is frequently used in traditional Ukrainian embroidery, especially in the farmland regions. Cornflowers are often found in the fields of wheat and cereal crops, where they look like beautiful blue eyes in the sea of yellow.

Used longtail cast on with needle size 3.0mm and changed to 3.5mm after a very short neckline for the yoke;
opted to the dark pattern choice…
Sleeves are done… started the sleeves hem pattern after 120 rows, now back to the body… started the body hem pattern in 28cm body length.

No other mods, knitted excatly as pattern calls for…

Pattern is well written and easy to follow. It’s such an easy and quick knit which ends up in a perfect fitted pull heart

Left yarn is: MC 65gr and CC 17gr, so the used yardage is 747m MC and 186m CC.

Teti, thank you so much, for having me on your testteam again!
