Can’t wait to start this! Got the yarn in a sale at my LYS

September 11, 2021

I am totally in love with the colour of the yarn! Also I love the texture of the yoke before blocking - will definitely not block this heavily…

And yes, there is ribbing on my project but not in the pattern… would have helped to read the pattern properly… However, I will leave it like that, I think.

Seperated sleeves from the body.
I strongly recommend to not only look at the chart, but also read ALL of the written instruction - guess how I know…

First I missed the first set of short rows and had to ripp back. Then I nearly missed the increases after the lace chart (only did those after 10 rows later or so) and then, last, but not least nearly missed the second set of short rows before the sleeve separation…

Well, now it is only stockinette in the rows for the body - I might want to add some increases for a very slightly A-line, we will see.

Finished body, have 69 g left for both arms - which will probably not be enough for full length sleeves, so I might make them shorter or add contrasting cuffs - we will see.

Started first sleeve decrease after 15 rounds

October 1, 2021

Weighed again after 4th sleeve decrease, have 54.9 gramms left so far.

October 2, 2021

Changed to contrasting yarn for sleeve cuffs after 14th decrease on the first sleeve, I have reached 35 cm sleeve length so far, so abb. 2.5 cm to knit bevore starting the lace pattern.

October 4, 2021

Ran out of the Landlust yarn a little earlier than for the first sleeve (at 3 decreases left), but I think this will not really be visible when the sweater is worn, I will probably push the sleeve back a ittle most of the time.
