2020-03-27: Correction in the 4th row of increase. We should read for size L K4, *M1, k4; repeat from to end.
It was my first project with circular needles and this pattern made it so easy. The instructions, once you get handle with the english abbreviations, are very clear and the sizing accurate. I'm still working on it, but the result is really wonderful by now. Thank you so much, I'll repeat!
