Don’t like tight arm-holes so ended the body 2” before pattern called for and separated for front and back earlier. Knit the arm-holes to 8.5” instead of the pattern called for 6.5”.

Picked-up neck sts, started on neck. Blocked last week.

Neck-line complete, decided to whip-stitch it down instead of pick-up sts and do 3-needle bind-off like the pattern says.

To not have jogging in the stripes I added basting sts to both sides of the body, one at beginning of round, and one mid-way on other side of the body. I seamed those up and am now onto the armhole ribbing.

Even though I’m knitting the size S, I picked up 105 sts for the armholes because of the extra height added to the armholes.
