Notes

07.08.10: Finished! Easy and well written pattern!

Lucky me, the Grapevine grew after a wash in the machine, no it fits perfect! :)

Had to knit the right sleeve twice, since I for some reason knitted the sleeves tighter than the body. The sweater came out a bit tighter than expected (as usual).

21.07: Finished the body. Added some length and made two more increases (5 decreases and 7 increases) because it was a bit tight. I think this will be a very nice sweater when it’s finished.

07.07: Separated for sleeves. Knitted 6 more rounds before separating. I think it’s going to fit, but maybe it’s a bit loose?

04.07: Had to frog the first attempt and start over again with smaller needles (3.5). Fortunately it will not turn out so big this time.

Since I use thinner yarn than the pattern recommends, the gauge is quite elastic and seems to variate between 21 and 23 per 10 cm.
