03.27.16 - 11 inches complete on the sleeve - broke the yarn, put the sleeve on a scrap yarn holder and washed and blocked it. Size 4 needles is giving me 6 st/inch in stockinette, 7 st/inch on the color work. I will increase to a size 5 when I get to more color work.

03.26.16 - Starting with the sleeves. They usually work for a gauge swatch. Provisional cast on 60 stitches, just above the cuff. Pattern calls for 50 stitches at that point, but that seems very small. Increasing every 6 or 7 rows.

08.21.16 - getting there! Had lots of car time to knit the stockinette body.

08.26.16 - short rows to add length to the back.
