Notes

January 6, 2016

CO : 224 st.
k2 p2 ribbing

For herringbone pattern : increase 1 st. = 225 st.
For lightnings and cables : decrease 1st. = 224 st.

May 20, 2016

Frogged a substantial part of the sweater (the whole part starting from the ribbing in the middel, back and half of the front), because the cables were making it tighter. I forgot to increase stitches to prevent this from happening.
So now I added an extra 14 stitches and I hope it will work out fineā€¦
(total : 238 st --> 17 pattern repeats for the cable pattern)

Sleeves
picked up 80 st. along the side of the arm;
1st round kbf in every stitch = 160 st.
2nd and 3rd round : decreased 50 st in total

herringbone pattern over 110 st.

decreases:
after herringbones : 4x 1st at each side of stitch marker every 4th round, then every 3rd round until 64 st, then every 4th round until 48 st

cuff : 12 rounds k2 p2
