11/2/14 Waiting on yarn to arrive. In the mean time practicing with Briar Rose Fourth of July which I got spot on guage doing the swatch. Ordered yarn 10/28/14 from Blue Moon Fiber Arts in Enchanted Forest color way.
11/08/14 in the mean time got the clue 1 finished with FOJ so going to continue. My BMFA yarn came on 11/05/14. Beautiful - but since I’m so far along with FOJ will continue.

11/30/14 completed clue 2. Briar Rose Fourth of July - just finished clue 2 and posted in the other thread. I’m concerned if my wavy bind off will flatten when blocked. Maybe I need to do the edge again. I used the knit 2 tog in back loop, place that loop back on left needle and repeat across Also concerned if the front edges will meet to fit me once the front button plackets are added. How many inches will that be and can they be wider, just in case? This was size 47” actual bust circumference.

12/26/14 completed clue 4. First time for buttonband, neckline, and buttonhole band. Did bind off a second time on the button band as seemed a little tight and wouldn’t stretch. Also redid the bottom ribbing bind off and made that tighter as was a bit to wavy. Also made the button band 1.5” & the buttonhole band 2” wide. Fits nicely. Love it. Still have to block it yet.

12/29/14 Blocking completed!
