Sleeves - maybe Ginny or simple?

errata

back neck - I don’t like the Pom Pom errata bc it’s not balanced. Unfortunately, to get it balanced you end up cabling w a wrapped st (but if you use wrap-and-turn method it’s ok bc you don’t need to resolve that last w&t bc it is hidden in the cable). So:

Row 25: Patt to marker, SM, k2, SM, M1L, remove following two markers as you go; pattern to three sts before marker, C8B three times (this will take you three sts beyond the next marker), patt to marker, M1R, SM, k2, SM, patt to end. 88 (88, 88, 100, 112) sts

  • at the transition from row 30 to establishing the fronts for sizes 3, 4, 5. Should read, ‘Rpt rows 27-30 once more’

  • row 9 of ‘establish fronts’ should be k4 at the end of the row (not k2).

modifications
- on the cable rows for the fronts, move the cables in 1 st from the edge. Otherwise you cable right on the edge where you will then need to pick up sts for the neckband.

cluster sts - if you work them directly after the garter st row, they just get lost. Also the count doesn’t match the cables …?
So, worked clusters on front on row 10 (WS row) instead of 9. Then worked incrs on row 11 either side of cluster.

establish fronts row 2 - two M1RP in a row. Can one of them be worked on a difft row? And why is there a k st in there?

18 oct - lots on this today. Finished right front without making a hole in my fingertip on the cable rows and seamed to sleeve. Then started working an extra 10 rows for more armhole depth. Also worked an extra four on one of the sleeves in order to be able to start seaming it separately to the body. Need to do the other sleeve too and more body length.
30 sept - got a long way yesterday on yoke. Finished back and almost the other sleeve. Also seamed it up. Have picked up sts for right front today and working on that. Worked clusters on row 10 instead of 9 (so WS row). Worked incrs on row 11 either side of cluster.
28 sept - started again (again) w cushendale. Completed left shoulder portion of yoke and half of back portion. Just used regular w&t
14 sep 2108 - have completed row 15 of neck in stone wool Romney (p71)
