Notes

3.75mm = 24 sts x 34 rows knit flat
I feel like I could just go for 4.5mm in the round.

Oops didn’t read the note above when I started knitting! Though my swatch was on 3.5mm. No wonder my gauge was tighter for the actual garment!

Modifications:

  • Repositioned raglan shaping so there’s a bit more fabric in the front than the back.
  • Knit body a bit shorter.
  • Adjusted decreases for shorter sleeves, and for a bit of a tighter cuff.
  • Did the hem with the same size needles as body instead of smaller.
  • Did the cuff as ribbing (partner’s preference).
  • All ribbing as half twisted rib.

Approx. 81.5 hours of knitting for final version. More like 106.5 hours including a couple of false starts.
