Notes

Can’t wait to get started on this!

10/20/11: Oh boy - got all decreased down in the center, and now have casted on back up to 300-odd stitches for sleeves. Slow going toward the finish line now!

11/9/11: Done! Had to break into 5th skein of Tosh, though, which is too bad - used 931 yards, not 855 as called for in pattern.

This was one of the trickiest things I have ever seamed or blocked.
