Notes

This was a fun knit.
My numbers are off for the larger sizes and I was able to make adjustments that I needed. Specific to the arm holes
I suggest taking notes while you knit so you can do some math later on when you pick up for sleeves and button band.
If you have large shoulders, I suggest not doing the shoulder shaping in the collar. Unless you like the front raised up like in my pics.
You do you!

I’m really enjoying this project.
Next time I want to do the faux seams differently.
Maybe across 6-8 st with the purls on the the sides.

CO for Size 3 but inc for size 2.
The hope is to accommodate my apple shape body.

Working reverse stockinette for this one. It shows off the tweed so beautifully.
