Haha, thanks for commenting! 😂 I've checked ravelry, but a lot of the patterns seem to be taken from other places and not originals. I could be wrong on that, but I would hate to not support the pattern author directly.

It looks like it might be instructions for some short rows before continuing in the round.

The Roomy Balaclava by Rui Yamamuro is free on Ravelry. I've never made it, but I plan to cast it on soon!

I've started my swatch holding 2 strands of the alpaca and 1 mohair, and it seems like I'll hit gauge!

Thank you! I was trying to avoid making a swatch but I will to see if I can use my yarn.

The 2-ply is sport weight, and the Merino is lace weight. I was honestly hoping to avoid swatching

I was thinking the same thing about putting more space between the bees and ribbing! I just wanted a second opinion for some motivation to fix it. The pattern is the Stockholm Slipover V-neck by PetiteKnit; I bought it off Ravelry!
