It only took about 2 weeks to remake and finish the Crux sample when I had all the pieces (I lost one of the front pieces and set this project down for a while to make my Lisse sample); since Crux is cropped, it’s actually a very a quick knit once you get in the rhythm of carrying the yarn!

I did the 2 front sections and sleeves using the all-in-one Crux method, and I did the back piece with the simple Crux method. (due to the number of yarn butterflies on the back, I may suggest doing the simple method on the back). I needed to try both methods to write the directions, but I actually found the all-in-one method a fun brain-tease, which was partially the reason behind the name Crux:

Definition of crux
1: a puzzling or difficult problem : an unsolved question
2: an essential point requiring resolution or resolving an outcome
3: a main or central feature (as of an argument)
