Violet

Pattern: Japanese magazine - World Knitting 2005 Fall/Winter
Yarn : 9 balls of Cool Merino - Kid Yarn ( Italy) 100% wool
Needle : Japanese 6 (3.9mm) for the body and 5 (3.6mm) for the borders.
Modifications: I used one size up for the needles. Often the Japanese patterns are a bit small for me , so I decided to try to use thicker needles and yarn. In addition, I increased the armholes but forgot to enlarge the sleeves cap thus it's not as loose as I like around the arms
