Hints and tips:

  • Carry the yarn at the back of your work, making sure not to pucker the fabric, if the yarn is carried over more than 4 sts, you can always just catch the strand every 4/5 sts. There are many tutorials online which show you how to do this.
  • At some points in the pattern, there are different options (eg. the sleeves) which you can take, these are only suggestions, feel free to improvise on these parts if needed!
