Notes

Very happy to finish this, because while the knitting was fine, the finishing was a pain.

Shoulder seaming took forever because the nature of the yarn makes it hard to read the stitches. Also, some stitches were doubled yarn and some single which made the seam lumpy.

The thing that makes it worthwhile is how lovely the finished fabric is, once it is washed and blocked, and it will be a useful wardrobe piece for spring and summer.

If I had it to do over, I would have bought more yarn and made it a bit longer, and maybe adjusted to add a bit of shaping.
