Notes

Totally love this yarn for garments, so I will cast on another summer sweater/ top. I am a BIG fan of Heid Kirrmaiers designs, so it will be Buttercup. Hope that the pink part will not be too bright so I can actually wear this!

My gauge is a little tighter, i.e. 27 instead of 22 stitches, so I will knit XL to get something between S and M. I plan to make the neckline a little less deep as I do not like deep necklines and easily get cold when my neck is exposed… Well, something I might actually see as an advantage in summer - we will see.

Gnaaaa- again! I always mess up the feather and fan pattern as I do overread that I was supposed to repeat it from the very beginning, i.e. there will be 6 and not just 3 stitchtes plain.. After some trying to frog just a part, I frogged the whole thing today and I am not sure it will be a Buttercup or something completely different…

Okay, restart - will try the Twisted Little Raglan instead of Buttercup

Okay, used all the ripped off yarn from the first attempt yesterday and seperated the sleeves from the body today. Looks good to me so far, hope it will be all smooth sailing from now on.

Tried it on, looks promising! I am about half way through the body, app. around my waistline. Plan to not make it too long, probably around 55 cm, at least in the front.

Picked up 103 stitches around the armhole, plan to decrease 2 stitches every 8 rows.
