Notes

12/13: This is my project to work on during a very long plane ride/vacation.
My bust is about 31.5… but I think I’ll make the XS (35” seems WAY too big), and hope there’s a part where I can add a few sts to the pattern.
I’m making it from cotton, so I’m hoping it will be a nice summer top.

1/5/11: Eeek! I ran out of yarn! It’s yarn from a sweater I frogged, so I really had no idea how much I had. I’m going to do some sort of striping at the bottom (I have about 8” to go) with a different yarn. Stay tuned!

1/19: Okay, so I added some white to the bottom (in 3 sts green, 3 sts white for 3 rows so it doesn’t look like a stripe) and finally finished the sleeves. I did the sleeves on size 2 needles.
Only the pockets left to go!

1/25: working on the pockets! (sorry the progress is so slow… I’ve been working on other things!)

2/4: Loved this project! It’s shorter than I wanted because I ran out of white yarn (and so did Knit New Haven! eek!), but I’m really pleased with it. Can’t wait to wear it this spring! (yes, spring IS coming!)
