Notes

4-2-11 I’m reworking this pattern for worsted weight yarn and a larger, looser look to the garment. I’ll keep you informed!

4-6-11 24, yes…TWENTY-FOUR inches of K2 P2 ribbing. I am SO bored! One more reason to make a real effort to learn to knit continental! 8 inches to go…

5-9-11 I let this sit for too long after I finished all the pieces. Now I’m up against the wall to get it done and I’m having trouble with the assembly.

5-18-11 Getting some help from a friend on the 20th at the St Francis Crafter’s Group. She’s a whiz. Hopefully this will be done by the 23rd.

5-20-11 Thanks to the wonder photos from Ravelers lotzakatz and knitterloreen, I was able to visualize how this all fits together. When I went to St Francis tonight I had the sleeve trim already attached. While I was there, I got 2/3 of the neck/waist/front lace sewn on by the time I left. I finished it up at home and now I can say it is done 100% Thanks, Friends!
