Notes

I love this sweater. The bottom is sparkly! It wears comfortably and looks funky so I am happy!

Held the wool DK and sparkly fingering together for the bottom section and the sleeves.

The blank drawing of the sweater in the pattern is quite useful for basic colour experiments on Paint :)

I got confused on the short rows - the 5 st before the last turn include the wrapped stitch. Also, don’t pick up the wraps in the yoke (I know it doesn’t say to do so in the pattern… but I need explicit directions ha).
