Ribbing for the body done in size 9 needles, body in size 10.

12 rows for ribbing, 14 rows before first waist decrease. 16 rows of decrease and 6 before increase (22).

First day - finished halfway through the waist increases (60 rows total)

8-22
Did one extra bust increase, did a total of 52 rows since the first increase (decreasing once on row 50 to get rid of the extra increase)

Sleeves:
(on size 7 dpn) After 12 rows of ribbing I placed a thumbhole, did about 8 rows of flat knitting, and 3 more rows of ribbing after closing up the top of the hole. Did one round of straight K and switched to the size 10 small circular. Made the first increase after about 12 rows, and will do one increase every 12-10-10-8-8 rows after.
counter to 114 after the first increase row.

Attached sleeves yesterday and did 3 rows of knitting before starting on the owls. Got almost halfway through the owls but my purling was looking sloppy next to the cables. After some online searching for a solution I learned about Norwegian purling. Excellent! Ripped back the owls and started over with new purls, its looking much better!
