Had to go with sixes for the ribbing and eights for the body to get gauge. Cast on 10-8, about halfway through the first owl face today, 10-10. Loving this so far! I will be pushing it to have enough yarn… May have to modify to 3/4 sleeves and skip the pockets, but I really love the look and feel of this yarn with this pattern, so I’m going to persevere.

10/24 body and one sleeve done…

10/28 sleeves and body joined, working the yoke.

11/1 body and yoke done. I have a lot more yarn than I thought I would at this point, so maybe a shawl collar? Going to experiment a bit.

11/2 knitting done! Blocking and finishing tomorrow
