Notes

Knitting fronts & back in 1 piece.
CO: 44 + 80 + 44

Used the pattern from ‘The Knitter ‘ issue 7. Errata applied.

Made too many buttonholes. Spacing was based on Pattern’s photo, 4 leaf repeats. I knitted 5 repeats because didn’t quite understand the instruction.

Knit 2nd leaf repeat with #6 needles. (want waist a little lower)

Collar: k2p2 rib because couldn’t pick-up enough stitches.

Sleeves: Lonely stalk on cap. 6th leaf repeat MIGHT fit in sleeve cap.
