Same yarn from Flower Garden afghan. I’m sure it’s not sport…I’ll keep notes as I go…

Notes: My gauge is 5.27 sts/in, which means 26” (for a size 4) would be a cast on of 137. Closest cast on in the pattern is 138…let’s go with that!

16 rows stockinette before dec rows.
Dec on row 17, 23, 29.

Work in st st until there are 52 rows white.
Cast on 32 for sleeves…Inc on rows 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29, 35 & 41. Work in st st until there are 56 rows white.

Now that I am working the yoke stripes, I am really having fun with this! It’s just soooo pretty!

Button bands - pick up 86 sts (39 at yoke), 2 x 2 rib, double dec at neck edge on row 2, single decrease on rows 4 & 6.

02.14.13 - The knitting is finished! Yay! I do need to block this, and it is acrylic, so I’m not sure how well that’s going to go.

02.17.13 - Blocking helped more than I thought it would, and I found the perfect buttons IN MY STASH!!! Yay! Love it!
