Notes

Not thoroughly satisfied with the result …
Though I carefully followed instructions for the short row back shaping, it was way too high for me, I had to rework it entirely, in order to get it fit nicely.
Though my upper arms are pretty thin, and I added 6 stitches before starting the sleeves, these are still a bit too narrow for me.
Well, I guess I’ll wear it as it is, I’m not going to reknit the whole sweater once again, am I ?
