Notes

My gauge is off so I’m making the first size in order to get the fit I’m after which will be somewhere between sizes B and C - not sure why peer gynt is suggested as a DK gauge substitute since it’s much more like a worsted

I do really like her designs but I wish the patterns were more to the point. I find them a bit too wordy. The GSR line took me much longer to make sense of than it should’ve

Sleeves: decreasing on 17th round to account for my row gauge
