I’m going to try and work this top down so that I can use all the yarn I have.

Changed Row 3 of collar to:

C2B, P2, C2B, P4, Cr3R, P3, C4F, P4, C4F, P3, Cr3L, P4, C2F, P2, C2F

I put this aside for a while as I had worked the sleeves then worked the body.

The sleeves were perfect, but I screwed up the body somewhere while reverse engineering it to top down and the armholes were HUGE!

So, I’ve had to frog the body and start again!

Took me four days to reknit the back and two fronts. I now have the shoulders together with a 3 needle bind off and the button/buttonhole bands done.

I’m going to spend tomorrow mattress stitching side seams and setting sleeves into place

Finished the collar of this today and used mattress stitch to attach the collar to the body, just need to get buttons and block it!
