Notes

Gauge is not correct, so even my 4 YO is thin, I use number of st according to size 8. The result is even more tight than I thought, but I love the result and it seems to fit my boy perfectly.

I missed the first stripe… Did not read the pattern good enough, so my first stripe was immediately after I split to arms and body.

Also I preferred to use garther st on the body and arms, and was happy with the result.

I decreased the arms as I normally do, so they are more narrow than on the pattern, but I think it’s better for an active boy’s playing, and more in line with the more tight body.
