Notes

12-13-2019

Modifications for boy fit:

Change to US3 for hem, cuff and collar ribbing.

Neck modifications:
- Knit top of front like back - do not bind off any stitches in the middle of the front to create a straight across collar, no dip in the front (additional benefit of making either size the front depending on wearer preference)

  • No bind off of final row of stitches - allows you to create collar off of live stitches.

Arm Modifications:
Start with same number of stitches as final width - no tapering of arm near the cuff. (I actually had one extra stitch to get the right number for the cuff ribbing. I reduced the width by the one stitch right before the chart work. )

  • No bind off of final row of stitches. Keep them live to work for collar.

Additional note: charts were confusing and took a full rip out of one size before I realized I needed to start the colorwork much earlier than shown in the chart. Was not intuitive that you need to start the chart much higher than shown.
