Notes

This one was started about 2 years ago, after finishing Max for my son. Husband got to want “the same in clue colours” for himself.

I knit up the body part and… frogged the whole thing. The problem was, I took it on 3,0 needle, and the fabric was just too loose (“skuduras”! :) )
It’s about time to get it done, finally. Unravelling the old thing. A swatch on 2,0 needle suggests this should work.

Recalculating measurements to manly S, and my new gauge on 2,0 needle. Still, will knit in separate front- back parts, not in the round - less pain in mistake correction in case my calculations appear to be faulty.

Fingers crossed! Hopefully I will not frog it again for 2 more years O.o

Front almost done. Hope the size will fit after blocking and my new calculations will prove to be correct.

I probably knit 3 sweaters to get 1 finally finished and fitting the ideal way.
Well, hope this was worth it. :)
