Notes

Colour A: skipped
B: Titus in Coal, held double
C: Glacier, held double
D: Glacier & Jade, 1 strand each
E: Jade, held double
F: Jade & Riptide, 1 strand each
G: Riptide, held double
H: Willow, held double

Worked body until I ran out of H, about 16 cm. Then reversed the striping back with 2 rounds of each colour. Every 8th round is purled to add pop and texture. Finished up body short rows with Titus.

A bit of a LOL moment - after trying it on after the blocking was complete, I saw that the garter yoke had significantly opened up, leaving me with two distinctly different sleeve lengths :) I will have to get those extra couple inches in! I’m just glad I didn’t return the extra skeins!
