After washing, the measurements are: length 51 cm, bust 90 cm (a bit wide; around 84 cm would be just right). Yarn: Korean yarn purchased from a physical storeComposition: Mohair 16%, Wool 20%, Cotton 56%, Acrylic 8%Yarn usage: 8 liang (about 300 grams)Needles: No. 10 for the body, No. 11 for the bottom edge Starting the sleeves—the color looks slightly off, leaning more toward blue. Splitting under the arms Waist shaping The body is finished Sewing in the sleeves—I took it to a tailor shop and had them sew them using a sewing machine, at 2 yuan per sleeve. Collar Buttons—I couldn’t find suitable ones, so I repurposed a few from another garment. They’re bronze-colored and look quite nice. Finished! I knitted both front and back pieces together, all in plain knit, very straightforward. The knitting method is omitted here. Black is hard to photograph, especially since I used my phone, so the pictures aren’t ideal. Due to the weather, no real-life photos this time—heatstroke isn’t fun :tongue.
