Notes

Easy and quick knit. Made one change by adding the detail around the neck back.

Found that the yarn shrunk more than I thought it would after wetting it, so it pulls too much at the buttons.

The other issue I had was not alternating the skeins properly while knitting. I hadn’t really used a hand-dyed yarn before and didn’t know you were supposed to do this. Now I have some noticeable pooling that I am not happy about! I haven’t decided yet what I am going to do about it.
