Notes

I think I am going to undo the arms and reknit them……gauge is still correct, but there is somuch of color D, I need to elongate the sections by about an inch each.

Picked up 129 stitches on each side and 50 across the back.

I have 1/4 ball of teal left and about 1/3 of a skein of each of the other colors.

For the collar I knit 2 extra rows of garter stitch for each color. on the last color I elongated the short rows to be every 4 stitches apart instead of every 2.
