Notes

Turned out a little small in the chest despite the extra rows. Wasn’t thrilled that the extra rows created a larger neck opening, though during knitting I was afraid the neck opening would be too small. Definitely learned a lot by knitting this. Interesting design concept, but I am definitely looking forward to knitting the next sweater in the round.

Tried to follow the pattern as best I could. I had to add about an inch and a few extra decreases to the neckline because it was turning out too small. This had the effect of making the sleeves wider which I will try to compensate for in seaming.
