Notes

This pattern is genius! Seaming the sleeves was the easiest I have ever done. And knitting this sweater on US 10.5 needles make this work up so fast. The garter stitch edging, decreases, everything about it…I LOVE.

I used up all of the 5 skeins. The only thing I would change, if I were to knit this again, I would omit the side shaping. I find it totally unnecessary with this much positive ease. The increase round, in the broiche is off a little. It’s easy enough to figure it out once you there. It was just something about the markers.

The brioche is knit up differently than I’ve ever done before…with YOs. I had always done it with knitting into the stitch below method. I like this one better, as it’s easier to frog.

The colorway looks like oatmeal in the picture but it’s really a silvery grey (best shown in the last pic).
