Notes

US 6 needle for ribbing

US 7 needle for body and arms

March 1st, ran out of yarn! Total panic! Went to LYS and bought a nice red that complements the green. I matched the red flakes that are in the tweed.

I put a crochet edge around the cuffs and the waistband. I wanted the waistband to have a loose fit so I made the crochet edge around this edge loose.
