• Long tail cast-on in contrasting color

• Knitted the sleeves flat, two-at-a-time

• Worked pattern exactly as written. No mods.

• Faux tortoise shell toggle buttons from Hobby Lobby

Easy to follow pattern. I loved the collar construction, but next time I’ll work both sides of the collar to the middle of the back and graft there instead of working one side all the way to the other side and grafting on the front of the piece. It’ll be less noticeable.

For Rosette

• Used US 6 needles
• Mods: worked in st st instead of garter st
