Notes

This started out as a simple stash buster. I didn’t have enough of the main colour to make the sweater as long as I would have liked, but it works as a fun little cropped thing to throw over a t-shirt. I love the simple vertical garter stripes and it was a chance to practice sewing in sleeves and mattress stitch.
