Notes

New Year’s Day 2022 cast on.

January 1, 2023

Picked this back up after languishing for a year! Lol

January 2, 2023

Knit body to 9.25”. Doing a cropped version to wear with my full linen skirts.

January 2, 2023

Plan is to finish cropped body with a 1x1 rib. Thinking 3” depth? Tried on with 1/2 ribbing. Want it to fit more snug at waist. Doing decreases. Decreased 4 sts, 2 on either side at waist line. Then again the decreases at 1” depth. So reduced 8 sts so far.

January 5, 2023

Body bound off. First sleeve picked up. Knit sleeve to 41cm prior to cuff rib. Cuff length is 5cm.

February 26, 2023

For sleeves and hem - knit one rnd in hem colour then start 1x1 ribbing on 3.25mms.

March 13, 2023

Finished last night and now many many ends to weave in.

March 30, 2023

This took a backseat to many many testknits but finally all ends are woven in and she’s blocked.

I LOVE IT smiling_face_with_3_hearts. Modelled pics to come!

Blocked measurements

Body - 11.25”
Sleeves - 18.5”
Body circumference - 37”

Perfect!
