Notes

3/21/11 - Yarn ordered…can’t wait
3/24/11 - I love the way corrugated ribbing looks - but it is so tedious to do - but now finished! On to the fun part!
3/30/11 - This is fun!
4/15/11 - temporarily interrupted by purchase of NookColor
4/27/11 - Once again interrupted: by Baby Sweater this time.
05/09/11 - Ran out of yarn for Baby Sweater so am back at it. Only an inch or two of the body left to do - then sleeves - two on same needle?

09/03/11 - Set aside for the summer…need to get back at it!
12/29/11 - OK Christmas got in the way….almost finished with first sleeve. Had to order more yarn. waiting and started something else.
05/02/12 - More than a year now - on the second sleeve - someday this will come out of the WIP basket!
01/08/13 - back at it. I will finish this before I start anything else big. About 30 rows on last sleeve! Them the fun begins.
01/20/13 just cut open the steeks - too early in the morning for wine - darn I deserve it!!

01/23/13 corrugated ribbing is beautiful -knitting it is tedious, especially on the wrong side!!

01/27/13 Finished!! remember when you do the corrugated ribbing on the bands, you are starting on the wrong side - so it should be P2K2 that way the knit stitches are on the outside right side!! This was a journey but it is so beautiful. Thanks Kathleen!!
