Notes

Berroco Peruvia Quick ordered Jo Nell Christmas
10/3 swatching. Many problems reaching gauge. I have ended up with this solution. I am knitting the numbers of the med size with the measurements of the x-small size which is what I wanted to knit. The substitution of this yarn was difficult but I am really liking the results.

10/25 I have a back and sides done

12/11/09 Finished. I love the way this turned out. The measurements are spot on after all the gauge issues I started out with.
