Notes

Had this on my list for a long time. Loved the Olive color after I saw it in a yarn store … This was my COVID knitting project!

Not many changes made … the most significant adjustment I made is that I started/ended the raglan rows with one stitch of stockinette … this allowed for easy seaming, and I think it was worth doing.

I also “played” a little bit with the needle sizes. Of course I used thinner needles for the hem, thicker needle for the stockinette, but I also used an “in between” needle for the moss stitch, and I think it worked out great: The moss stitch is not too loose, but also not as tight as the hem. It blends in nicely with the stockinette that way, mission accomplished.

I added a few rows to the turtle neck so that it stays in place.

A very fun project to knit! I enjoyed it a lot and can highly recommend it.
