Notes

Notes:

  1. Made the body slightly longer than the pattern called for.

  2. Did not knit the entire cowl around the neck, only knit 5 rows in rib st because cowls make my neck itch.

  3. Didn’t bother knitting the button holes in the sides since I knew I would never unbutton them. Just used a tapestry needle and after trying it on, attached the buttons where I wanted them.

  4. Did not do the cable increase st for the arms at the beginning. It was time consuming and I didn’t like how mine looked so I just did regular M1R/M1L sts.

  5. Knit from 2 different skeins and alternated every other row to ensure color vartiation spread evenly throughout.

  6. Did not wet block, just lightly steamed the bottom edges where it curves.

Love the pattern, love the yarn!
