Notes

12/08: ok, picking up this project again after neglecting it for over 2 months …

15/08: back done, started the front

26/08 - front done, will probably start the hood before doing the sleeves

27/08 - hood started. I’m using the same needle size as for the body, hoping the hood will be the right size :)

31/08 - hood done, and almost finished with the neckband. I didn’t pick up the exact number of stitches as said in the pattern, just picked up what made sense to me. Also, I’ve made it only 1 inch large instead of 1 1/2 inches.

03/09 - neckband done and finished all seaming for now. It’s looking really nice, now on to the sleeves !

17/09 - ufff.. finally sleeves are done and blocked. Will do the seaming later tonight.

18/09 - done, done !!!! and it fits so well, too :)
I love the final result, but I’m sure it will be a while before I knit a whole sweater in 3.25 mm needles ever again …
Ended up using only 6 skeins, now what shall I do with the remaining one ?
