Notes

March 9 : completed the top half.

March 10: completed bottom front, 3/4 of the way through nearly! Better photos today :)

March 28: Welp, finished all the knitting and it’s a bit too cropped. I blame my tight knitting - the width is a little too wide, and the length is a little too short! Maybe something will come out of blocking it the second time…

I only used 8 skeins of yarn. 11 skeins was a bit of an overstatement in the pattern, hmmm…


I want to do a sweater/top for every month of the year. This is number 3!

A little sadly, this yarn is a lot less exciting when knit versus in the skein. The color was a lot more vibrant when it was twisted - somehow, knitting it makes it actually look less tweedy than in skein form.
