Love this pattern - I wanted to use the same wool and colour as pattern, however, they are slightly different as some weren’t available. I found it difficult to get started as I was using long circular needles and kept messing up the short rows but I bought some 40cm needles and it was so much easier. I also used German short rows instead of wrap and turn. The whole time I was making the body, I was convinced it would be too small but to my amazement it fits! I couldn’t try it on as the needles weren’t long enough to allow it unless I transferred to waste yarn but I couldn’t be bothered to do that. I used a stretchy bind off for the body as I made the mistake of using a normal bind off for a similar jumper and it felt too tight but this is great; it doesn’t look as neat as a standard one but it does the job and is more comfortable. Also did jogless stripes as suggested which turned out well. Did I-cord for neck edge and blocked. Really pleased with the result!

Thank you so much Alison, I was very pleased with this one as I actually found it quite fiddly to get started as the yarn is finer than what I’m used to but I love the end result
Another great jumper Andrea, love the colours and the style of this one, it’s such a lovely pattern too. Looks good on you too. Your knitting is so neat 🧶
