Notes

Part of the “Jeck auf Jacken” CAL in the German Drops group in February 2011
14 Stitches x 20 Rows = 10cm square in stockinette
Will do the size M, with 88 cm bust circumference. Still thinking about making it a little longer than just 38 cm - will have to do some measuring before.
Will cast on 112 stitches, increase 6 stitches on each side to give me a total of 124 stitches at the widest part.
Finished. Used a 3needle bind-off for the shoulders and varied the edging. Still drying, especially the bottom was curling a lot after knitting. If I knit this again, I would pobably go for a little tighter gauge. However, love the yarn-colourway-pattern match - the two front-parts even came out nearly identical, though I did not mess with the repeats to reach this. Plan to use the handmade buttons I got from Isis during Schwarzwaldstrick 2010 once it is dry.
