Notes

A sweater for Katie at last! I meant to make the 8-10 year old size, but miscounted my cast on by ten stitches and didn’t want to frog. She can grow into it, lol.

Joined second skein of Valentine a few rounds back the body from the underarm to the edge measures 10”. Only a few more left before the seed stitch border.

FInished body today and started the sleeves. I am trying to work them two at a time with the same needle I knit the body with and two balls of yarn (the remaining one from the body plus I cracked open a new one). Little by little, we’ll get this done.

I finished this while on winter break and am very pleased with it. Weighing my leftovers, I used about 2 full skeins of the Valentine yarn. I’m lightly blocking the collar to open the lace but don’t want to block too aggressively so that the neck is too wide. She looks so cute!
