Notes

5-6-11 - photographed!

4-21-11 - darn! just realized I didn’t update the project page when I finished this! but yes, it’s done and I’ve worn it twice and I LOVE it. (and of course, no photos!!) I did have to buy one more skein to knit the front edging and it took about half of it. I knit the sleeves to end just above my elbows and the body a bit longer. Also used a three-needle bind-off on the hem - yes, picking up the row of stitches to join was a pain, but hey, for no sewing it was worth it. Otherwise I followed the pattern as written.

3-17-11 - split off the sleeves yesterday…loving this project!
