Notes

Modified this version like many others and made a henley version instead since I’m knitting it in cotton for the summer.

Once I knit about 4 inches for the button band I decided to cast on 6 stitches using cable cast-on and placed the marker in the middle and worked in the round for the rest of the project.

Super light and breezy in cotton. Full details on the blog.
