Yarn is super-bulky with suggested gauge being 9 stitches to 4 inches on size 9mm (13 US), so instead of 101 stitches, casting on 91. Ended up 36 inches wide, vs. 34, so I could have used 4-5 fewer stitches.

Knit for 32.5 inches then started the front. Instead of casting off 11 stitches, cast off 9, leaving 41 on each side.

Finished measurements: 36 wide across the front with some overlap from the front bands, and 29 inches long. Like a giant blanket. Stitched up 2/3 of the length.

• added a toggle and loop - a necessity in my mind.
