Notes

After making Ellen, I still had this terrible yarn left for Portia. So I’m doing it. I’m making another pillow garment. The pattern is a little less obvious to hand manipulate on the machine, but luckily it’s an even row motif (unlike Ellen), so my yarn is always in the right place on the next row.

I removed 9 of the 6 row motifs to shorten the jacket, but totally miscalculated my stitch count so the back has less stitches than the small. Hopefully using the correct counts on the fronts will make up for it!
