Crochet jumper

The second crocheted garment completed this year! A lovely blue jumper with lace sleeves.  I stumbled upon the pattern in last spring's issue 2/2023 of Kotiliesi Käsityö magazine (Finnish Craft Magazine).  The designer is Emilia Johansson. I crocheted the jumper with Katia's Cotton Merino. Cotton Merino is 70% cotton and 30% wool. The skein is 50 g and has 105 meters. The color is 131. I crocheted the jumper with a 4.5 mm hook and used a 5.5 mm hook for the sleeves. I used ten skeins what is 500 grams and 1050 meters.  The pattern for the jumper can also be found in Swedish on the website of the yarn company used in the pattern.  Crocheting the jumper was delightful, but there were a few challenges along the way. So, I had to improvise a bit.   But fortunately, my improvisation paid off because the jumper turned out lovely.  For more about the jumper, go to my YouTube channel, i n the episode one I will tell more about the project.
