Notes

Gauge, even with smaller needles was a bit off, so I knit the small size with selvage stitches added for seaming, estimating that the finished chest measurement would be 42” (and it was!) Sleeves were knit cuff up, so when they ended up too long I picked up a stitch from the row where I wanted ribbing to start and cut away excess, then re-knit cuffs in the round. I like that the new ribbing cuffs don’t have seams. Next sweater I knit will have a provisional cast-on at the cuff so that I can customize the length at the end Sleeve length is always an issue for me … too long, too short … Loved the way the cable looks in this bulky yarn!
