Notes

New yarn I’ve not tried before. I think the yarn is a heavy worsted, but I’m going with it anyway. The pattern has sizes 2 and 4, but I think I need a 3…I am hoping thoe thicker yarn will change the gauge enough that I can knit the size 2, increasing length, for a Wallaby that will fit our lil’ Peanut!

Mods:
I prefer a 2x2 rib, so I have increased the cast on to 96, divisible by 4. :) Rib 12 rows.

I’ll be knitting the body an extra 1/2” before adding sleeves.

Cast on extra two sts for sleeves as well. Rib as for front, inc 8 on first k rnd, 2 on third k rnd. Knit sleeve length to 8.5”.
