Whippet

I made this for myself

    About

    I love this beautiful cardigan. It's knitted in one piece from the top down with contiguous set in sleeves. That ticks all my boxes for favourite features. I made this from stash yarns. I combined Lanamania Pearl with a linen / cotton mix that I had on a cone. I ran out of the pearl yarn, so made contrast sleeves.

    Knitting this was quite addictive, so it didn't take me very long to finish it.

      Can anyone help me with this pattern. I am knitting for size XXL (which also covers L and XL), I am on page 6 at the end of the second set of increases and placed the SLM markers. However the pattern states that there are now 6 more stitches which it does not show the increases for! So instead of having 20 front sts I only have 17. Help x
