Notes

This yarn is so soft and pretty!

I have decided to add some length to this lovely pattern.

After 5 decreases on every alternate row, I will work 2 rows without shaping, and keep doing that till I am at the side seams. By my reckoning, this should give me an extra 2.5 inches of length as I will have knitted 14 extra rows :)

Wonderful pattern…beautiful yarn, love both to bits!

I have photographed my Elsewhere on Busty Bertha my dressmaking dummy.

I was a bit concerned that one of the sleeves was pooling differently to the other but I know I can live with it now I have finished.

You can see a lovely big collage of her here

If I hadn’t made this longer I would have had plenty of yarn with just 5 skeins, but I just started the 6th skein in the final cast off (how annoying is that!?!?)
