Notes

04-07-2019

Add an extra wrap to every cable crossing. If I says 1 wrap and 1 double wrap, do 2 double wraps. Says plain knit, do at least 1 stitch double wrapped.

Half way though 1st arm. Getting excited. Though I think when everything is said and done, I am going to undo the bottom hem and lengthen the body.

04-07-2019

Added stitches to the arm. Didn’t start the decreases until row 29 of the arm pattern.

04-13-2019

The arms are too tight even after doing less decreases and adding stitches. But there’s 4 extra inches in the underarms to make the shoulders puffy! The pattern is too tight over the cabling after adding extra wraps to the help lengthen the cables.

If you have any curves, this pattern is not written for you or scaled properly for your size!

It is laughable that the pattern says continue knitting for 11 rows after the main pattern is done before start ribbing. 40 rows later and it could still be longer.

This is the biggest disappointment I have ever knit.
