I am happy with how the colours played out.
Edition 3 - 2298
I sent extra yarn so Deidre could make sure it was a good size. The great thing about the shawl is you can make it as large or as small as you wish. When you get halfway through your yarn you start the decreases.
Deidre used a 4mm needle and increased to 127 stitches. She had very little yarn left over.
The colourwork is almost finished. Isabell suggested to start with a provisional cast on. When the sweater is finished you put the stitches back on a needle and cast off. This way you can make sure that the neck opening is as tight or loose as you like. You can also add ribbing around the neck if you choose.
