Notes

Named fisherman’s friend, according to my brother I look like a sailor when I wear this :)

I love the pattern!

Knitted in the round. Started out whith the smallest size (CO 152 st.)

Mods

  • Followed some of daintypirate ‘s mods
  • Extra waist shaping (decs rows 1, 7, 13, 19, 25; work 1 patt repeat straight, 7 incs to make room for the girls and make it big enough so the armhole shaping doesn’t cut into the cable).
  • Shorter body -- began armhole shaping rep 6 row 1.
  • Sleeves: lengthened cap to 34 rows.
  • Collar: picked up 130 st.

I lovelovelove my little sailor sweater!!!! Thank you Norah for this great pattern, you made so many people happy!
