Finally, finally I get to show this! I kept forgetting and then the wedding came and and..!
But here it finally is. My lovely first-ever knitted t-shirt. Let's look at the specs:
Pattern: Easy Peasy Tee
Yarn: Junghans Opal in petrol blue, 3,5 balls, that is 175 grams.
Needles: 4.5mm circular, 60cm long.
Mods: My gauge was something quite different from the original pattern, so I CO 128 stitches for size medium/large and adjusted the other numbers accordingly (like left only 10 stitches between the side stitch marker and the PINK stitch marker when doing increases and decreases instead of 20). I also shortened the tee a bit by leaving out one decrease to the waist.
Very easy and quick knit!
That fits beautifully. Sometimes it's the simple knits that are most rewarding. I have to remind myself of that.
