Notes

I’m modifying this to be a dress. I’m planning on working 19 stripes (including the hem) for the body instead of the 13 in the pattern. I’m also adding extra increases in the body to make sure that the skirt fits properly.
I knit the hem on the larger needles to make sure that the hem worked for my legs.

5/23: divided for sleeves
7/26: finished body and started a sleeve
8/22: finished first sleeve and started second
8/29: Second sleeve finished
