Notes

Plan to make V-neck twice as deep. (inc 1 every 4th row).

Modification didn’t quite work out. Frogged back & restart:

  • Start neck increase on row2. (inc 1 st on every other right side -q4th row)
  • Straight body. No shaping.
  • k2p2 hem with US#8

Finished! Superb result! The perfect oversized fit for pairing with leggings.

  • Gauge: post handwash, machine spin & dry 18 x 30 (4.5 x 7.5). Texture is kindda fuzzy. Will machine dry next project when it’s almost dry.

  • Armhole a little too long. Did not need the 1” knit even length I added myself b4 underarm shaping.
