Notes

Followed pattern directions, but found it was too short. Added 2” in length. Sleeves would have been too narrow as written, picked up number of stitches one size up and started decreases 6” from underarm rather than 1.5” from underarm. If I did it again I would have done more increases along the bust.

Gauge on 6 KnitersPride = 5.75 st/in 7.5 st/row (pattern 5.5 st/in 7st/row), grew to 5sti after wash + block.
Tightening up gauge as I work, in progress = 6 st/in which should block to 5.25 - 5.5
