I’m just about at the last set of increases in the yoke, but am going to have to set it aside for a few weeks probably because I need to do a couple of test knits.

My stitch gauge was really off on this one! I think I’m gonna block it out to about 54” and that will be just fine, but it’s nowhere near the 58” the size 7 should be. Not the fault of the pattern at all… it’s entirely on me. Still, I think it’s going to be the right fit. And I do love the Stra at this gauge. And I very much love the pattern. It was a joy to knit, and I cannot wait to wear the FO!

I think the whole project actually took me about 14 days since I had to set it aside for so long. And I think 2 of that was the tubular bind-off…
