Note: Remember to fix the pattern ‘jog’ where the new round begins while you are knitting. I remember thinking about it at the beginning but not again until now so will have to fudge it with duplicate stitch because it’s bothering me. (A bit wonky but better now)

Aegean Tweed is not very tweedy. At least, the denim and ivory aren’t. Not enough flecks to look intentional so it seems like there’s the occasional bit of lint that needs to be picked off.
Nice to knit with, though. It’s fairly easy to find the center end so that each ball is pulling from the center.
Loose floats across 5 sts are just barely sticky enough. Hoping with blocking that they’ll cling together a bit more.
Knitting with bigger yarn/needles than pattern calls for.
Love the Wedgwood-type colors.

Holes under the arms make me crazy so I picked up 6 extra stitches under the arms. Decreased over the next couple of rounds to close the gaps.

Finished dimensions Size F (49.5) on US 6 needles (added length):
Chest - 50”
Length (back of neck) - 26”
Aegean Tweed softened up so much after blocking that I realized I can wear this without a second layer underneath. Almost regretted my decision to pick up stitches and knit a K1P1 turtleneck but very, very happy about it now.
(Changed to a smaller needle about halfway up the neck.)
Changing from throwing + continental for the yoke to just continental for the body changed the gauge drastically. I switched back after 1 row but can see the considerably looser row under the yoke, even after blocking.
No colorwork on the sleeves. The ivory would have gotten too dingy and gross.
