Notes

27May2012: The fabric on this is so warm and fuzzy. It is great to wear on a cool summer day. My version is not really accurate gauge-wise… I clearly had too many rows per inch/cm, as the striped area on top should have been longer. I liked the size of the armhole, though, so I kept it as is.

I made a few modifications:

  1. Waist shaping (6 sts removed each side)

  2. Single crochet on sleeve edge to gather it in a little. Actually, it look great pre-blocking, but then it stuck out awkwardly after. So, I would just suggest not blocking the sleeve edge.


May2012: A test knit for Lidia Tsymbal (a.k.a. MadamButterfly). I thought I would make an oversize tee, but I am doubtful. It will be fitted in parts, I am certain. So, I am adding a little waist shaping so it doesn’t look awkward on me. 12 sts in and out.
