I got started last night after confirming stitch gauge in stockinette on US 9s. I’m US 8 for the yoke.

My row gauge is a bit off, so I may have to work less rounds for the body and sleeves between increase/decrease rounds.

04-19-2021

I was just starting the increases in the body when I realized I forgot to work two button holes sweat_smile so I frogged back last night and I’m now almost caught up to where I was.

Starting the first sleeve today, alternating 2nd and 3rd skein to minimize pooling.

04-30-2021

Finished my first sleeve last night and started the second. I decided not to adjust where the increases are despite my slightly-off row gauge. The sleeve fits great!

Finished knitting today and planning to block over the weekend while I’m out of town.

FINALLY added buttons today. This poor cardigan has been sitting around for week waiting for me to make up my mind regarding buttons. I’m so happy I finally settled on some that I’m ok with. Looking forward to wearing this out on foggy days grin
