MEASUREMENTS:
Neck-to-Hips = 24”
Shoulder-to-Shoulder = 17”
Shoulder-to-Wrist = 21”

Fabric Gauge, 4” = 6 rows of 3 granny clusters

Garment, body = 25” sq., 17 rounds
.. start w/ Strawberry (pink)
.. end w/ Raspberry (rose)
.. work collar w/ Black Cherry (dk.rose)
.. work bottom border w/ Black Cherry (dk.rose)
Garment, sleeves = 21”, 32 rows
.. start w/ Black Cherry (dk.rose)
.. end w/ Black Cherry (dk.rose)


BEST PRACTICES:
I reduce slant by:
.. using the Yarn-Under Method on the initial pull-through loop of each DC stitched.
.. reversing direction at the start of each round (color pattern permitting).

I’m using the HDC Method to join rounds in keeping with fabric-consistent Ch-space/Corner gaps.

I’m using the Wrap-DC Method to eliminate unsightly Chain-ups at the start of each round, and the Side-DC Method to stitch up and begin each row of the sleeves.
