Notes

I’m satisfied with the result.
The yarn is so feathery and smooth.

着れる一枚ができてうれしいです。
着用物を発作的にやりたくなり、パターン選びも発作的でした。
下部のレース模様と構造が変わっていたのが選出の決め手でした。でもちょうど良いDKの在庫糸がなかったので3plyの細い糸で、出発進行。
楽しく、すいすい進めれた良いパターンでした。
大人っぽいな私~
大人は何十年もやってるけど。

I chose this pattern because of the lace pattern on the bottom half of the garment and the construction.
The lace pattern uses drop stitch technique, which was new to me and I really enjoyed dropping tne stitches, feeling a bit guilty at the first drop st.

The pattern calls for DK/8ply yarn but mine is 3ply. I managed to get a closer gauge to the pattern’s, increaseing the size of needle, and also I added one more block of the lace pattern. I basically followed X-small size.

The lighter yarn made the ladder (see-through part ) more visible.
Made the length of the sleeves longer.

note
Back & Front centre panel: Cable CO 43 + 14 sts
Gauge: 2.2stsx2.3rows in stst on jp7/4.2mm
In lace on jp6/3.9mm

There is a mistake on Row 35 of the lace chart.
The drop st should be moved 2sts to the left.

Shape neck: divide 21sts for shoulder, 27 for neck, 21. Dec 1st at neck every row 13 times. Left 8sts for each shoulder.
Centre panel length=153R/67cmx2.3R=pick up 155sts

Sleeve 52rows from the last dec row.

Neckband: 69sts-58sts=11 58/11=5..3 pick-up 6sts 3times,5sts8times
