Notes

Took me a bit to get the hang of it. Worked out better when I used a single circular needle instead on doing 2 circs. For some reason, my brain just wouldn’t compute when I set it up that way. Usually that’s not an issue.

Mods: Used 10.5 US instead of 10 needle
Didn’t start decreases in front until 12”, instead of 10”

2-3-16 CO 90 sts. While the cabled increases are a bit fussy, I like how it looks so I’m knitted it as instructed.
2-7-16 Moving along on my Lemongrass. Knitted up about 7”. Really love the center cable & the cabled increases used for the raglan shaping of the sweater are really cool.
2-11-16 Added a few more rows. Finished with the round for now. Working on just the front. Still really loving the cables.
2-21-16 Messed up the front ribbing. Forgot to do the button holes, dammit. Easy enough to fix.
9-28-16 And it’s all done. Just really, really love it.
