Notes

For collar cuffs and split Hilo hem combined 1 strand of baby alpaca and 1 strand of charcoal tweed. For body and sleeves combined 1 Strand of charcoal tweed with 1 strand of dark dark brown.

The fabric it creates is beautiful and comfortable next to skin.

Modifications:
1) Changed rate of raglan incs. Less inc through shoulders then inc rapidly for chest circumference.
2)Added bust darts 2.5” from under arm.
3) Hilo hem: Worked twisted rib for 1” before splitting at the sides
