Notes

Doing this for the 2/11 Tumble Knit-Along.

OMG What a journey! I am so proud of myself…. I never thought I could make a sweater!

Notes:

-It came out a bit too big, but that’s what I get for not using the recommended yarn, right? I followed the directions for the XXL and made some modifications. Good thing, or it would have been really huge. LOL

-I decided to go with 3/4 sleeves because I was afraid I’d run out of yarn… and I ended up with a ball leftover :P

-I also left off the ribbing on the bands for the same reason. I like the curling look, so it all worked out in the end.

Will I make this again?? YES but I will have to use the featured yarn, or a yarn with a similar gauge.

My sister really likes it and wants one. Oh boy…
