Notes

Two, two, two tiny sweaters in Oregon Ducks colors for parents who are much more interested in sports than I.

Picked up 70 stitches for left button band on yellow body.

buttonholes: knit 2, yo, k2tog, knit 6, yo, k2tog, knit 6, yo, k2tog, knit to end, on row 7. knit 3 more rows, bind off.

Modifications:
No garter stitch at yoke
2 row stripes on yoke only
Short sleeves
No collar, just the applied i-cord edging
Wider buttons bands with buttonholes instead of button loops.
Applied i-cord along button bands, neckband, sleeve edges. If I’d thought ahead, I’d have done it on the bottom hem also.
More rows in the garter band at the hem.
