Notes

I was searching a perfect pattern for this multicoloured yarn which wouldn’t be boring to knit. Then I remembered this interesting pattern.

January 17th: Started to knit ribbing with needles size 3mm.
January 19th: Decided that this needle size was too small and started over with bigger needles.
January 24th: I started to knit yoke. When I tried it on it didn’t look good out. I think that I had to rip it and start to knit yoke again.
January 25th: I started to knit yoke again and now I will not make increases to the front.
February 3rd: I finished second sleeve.

I love the result. And knitting wasn’t boring.

Modifications:

  • I didn’t increase in the front while I did raglan increasings.
  • I cast on 6 stitches in the armpit when I separated sleeves.
