Notes

Watson Christmas sweater.
February 01 - Initial cast-on
February 05 - Second cast-on (larger size, with blue)
February 12 - Achieved 16” of body!
February 21 - Finished sleeves. Discovered inexplicable 30 stitch abundance on body. Ripped out body, decreased after diamonds on hem to 162, and will reknit. Damn.
February 24-ish - Began yoke.
February 28 - Finished and steamed! \o/ Boom.

During the yoke knitting, I worked two short row portions, the first in red (B) after Dec. 3 and the second in blue (A) instead of “Next 3 Rounds” before Dec. 5. I went immediately into the ribbing in blue after Dec. 5, and worked bind-off attached to round immediately before ribbing started.
