I have finally started uploading photos onto the computer so this is my jumper, talked about 2 posts down ( sorry ).
This is the first garment I have finished and I am pleased with it. I used the Elizabeth Zimmermann percentage system. I started with 200 stitches for the body and 66 for each arm. At the neck I ended with 84 stitches in total and I think I had decreased down to 0 stitches on the sleeve bit.
I decided to do a fisherman rib instead of 2x2 rib. I sl1, k1 on one round then k one round. As I suspected it did curl when finished so I did a few rows of crochet to straighten it up and that worked.
