Notes

This pattern has been in my queue for ages, but I was a little reluctant if it wasn’t too close to Vitamin D to be fun.

So, I finally decided I want to knit this with my last Yarnart gradient and so far, I really like it.

At least the yoke is different from Vitamin D - different type of increases, different yoke - more a round yoke than a raglan…

August 11, 2020

I am at 14 stitches between increases, first colour change was at about 12 stitches..

August 13, 2020

Separated sleeve from the body,
will knit the body before doing the sleeves.
Casted on 14 stitches beneath each sleeve, which gives me 80 sleeve stitches each.

August 16, 2020

Nearly finished the second set of back shortrows, but I have 87 stitches on 1 front and 103 on the other, so I will divide the too many stitches evenly to have 95 on each side and fiddle with the increases, we will see…

August 17, 2020

Started 2nd repeat of bottom lace edging.
Just realized that as this is a 7 row repeat, it will alternate between knit and purl side - quite like it so far!

August 21, 2020

While the yarn gets to the end, I have to untangle a lot of Wollkotze grmpf, so I decided NOT to taake this with me on vacation. I am about to cast off the body and I will leave it at that for the holiday.

I am not sure if I will have enough yarn from the gradient left for the border, but we will see.
