Notes

this pattern is a bit abused from the last time I used it, so hopefully I can get it right… (missing a few chunks here and there… :)
Not sure that I love this pattern, but it came out great! button band is a bit off centered (I made the button band as a part of the main body-not added in later as I did the buttonhole band. not sure exactly what I was thinking…) but I actually like it a bit asymmetrical. Sweater came out huge (see photos- my boy is 2 1/2 and is not small…) but a good thing when knitting for kids as he can wear it through next winter and maybe even beyond… I am afraid to eucalan wash it because it is so big already and a few have talked about how huge this yarn gets when it is wet… maybe after some kid dirt gets on it I will go down that road… I am happy with the results of this one, but will likely be switching patterns for the next cardigans that I make for the kids… LOVE the colorway on this… so perfect for my dreamy boy… :)
