Notes

I can’t remember if it was 4 or 5 skeins of brown but I did the correct size for gauge and it was HUGE because I was being super giving in my tension. Ended up doing like a small size for stitch counts, but fits perfectly.

Mods:
-double neck
-one sleeve is 6’s on right needle 5 on left…
-if there weren’t short rows in the pattern I added a few after the colors on the back and hid them in the arm pit area because I know my bust will tug
-5’s for ribbing, 6’s on stockinette and color work
