I've recently begun the Monday sweater by PetiteKnit with some discounted alpaca yarn I had lying around.

Has anyone here knit this pattern yet and can share some tips? I'm knitting quite a small size because 15-20 cm of ease seems excessive for me. Stay tuned to see if I am going to regret this choice later on :D

I love the patterns by Petit Knit! I haven't done this one yet, but I really like the simple design and you chose a great color.

I also sometimes mess with the ease of a sweater by knitting up or down a size or two. I know what I like to wear so usually it turns out right. I also obsessively measure as I go to make sure my gauge calculation is matching up with reality.

Keep us updated on your progress!
