Notes

Having a lot of fun knitting this so far.

6/23 - Started the body last night. I swear I read the directions 4 times and it said purl, but my brain kept fighting it, but I did it anyway… (I was also doing this in the dark at the opening credits of Brave)

I should have double checked… Oh well, I ended up knitting the body in reverse stockinette. It actually kind of looks better because the yarn blends well. So it’s a design feature. :P

7/1 - almost done with second sleeve. Then the I-cord thing…

7/8 - just finished. Had to redo garter button band on one side because I picked up too many stitches. Now time to sew in ends & block. Also decided to keep the plain stockinette side as the front. The raglan areas are purlwise, but it’s not too terrible looking with a good blocking.
