Notes

Using size 5 for ribbing, 6 for flat work and 7 for sleeves.
26” wide, 10” hem to underarm, 10.5” sleeve to underarm, 6” underarm to shoulder, 8” to 10” wide sleeve
Decrease to 66 sts over 40 rws for yoke.

Used size 5 us needle for icord- could have even gone down to a 4. Hood for kids is 2” shorter than for adult sizes, and I went for a length in between. The hood looks adorable and works fine but I could have just gone with the shorter length. Man, the top edge of the hood REALLY wants to flip up, even after pinning down during blocking. I’ll have to block just that edge again in the fall.
