Notes

Inspired by a design by Keiko Okamoto found on Pinterest. I am using her stitch pattern, but I’m winging it for the sweater shape. The original came in just one size.

I’m really happy with the Hobbi yarn. It feels really nice, the yardage is amazing and the price was great! As a large person who likes to experiment, it can sometimes be scary to invest so much money and then worry it won’t work out. At 1/3 the price of Noro (as an example), I feel freer to get messy with this yarn.

Alternating the colors every two rows.
Used the 6mm hook for the foundation row chain. It’s a bit big, but better than too tight.

The back of the neck stretched out from 7 ish inches to 15.5. I worked a line of decreases with slipped stitches and reduced it to 9.5 inches. The fit is much better and now I have ruffled scallops along the back of my neck.
