Notes

My son Jacob never wears what I make him. BUT, he said he would wear this.

Chest size is 35”. Will knit the smallest.

This cardi is knitting up quite fast. I’ve got the back done and I’ve started the two front panels - which I’m knitting at the same time so that they’re the same.

I can’t believe I started knitting this in January. I got the shoulders and one sleeve sewed in. Now for the rest. I swear the sewing all the pieces together takes longer… and I’ve been avoiding it because I hate sewing!

Finally done. The only thing that really didn’t workout on this sweater was the last buttonhole at the top after the decreases for the v-neck. That last buttonhole just didn’t work at all so I graftet the top and bottom together and you can hardly tell it was there.

I’m otherwise really happy with the way it turned out and my son seems to really like it.
