Notes

Relatively quick and easy knit, but - man - that cable trim was designed by Satan himself. Two cable needles, four double-points, one skein of slippery, slippery yarn…shudder. And when I cursed my way through those dreaded cables and bound off the first sleeve and realized that I had knit the damn thing inside-out? I was all, “Eh, screw it…I’ll knit the second sleeve inside-out, as well.” And I did. And I like it that way. I guess.

(Update - Despite its flaws, this is one of the rare knitted items that I wore on a regular basis. Woot!)

Exact skein count lost to memory, as I was simultaneously recycling the ill-fated Josephine. Yarn is wicked-splitty, but oh-so nice in the end.
