Notes

10.3.13 I’m working on the left sleeve already; very fast knit as others have noted, especially since I’m using size 17 needles. I’d researched what loads of other Ravelry knitters used for yarn and found a deal on two 3-packs of this color which is less yellow-green than a goldenrod color. I’d thought ‘puce’ in my mind, but that’s purple-brown, which this isn’t. Still, I like the color and the price was right. ;)

10.12.13 All done! And… it’s far, far too big in every way. I’ll try this one again in maybe a sport weight or something. Very cute pattern! But my gauge must have been way off, even though I kept checking it. :(

10.13.13 I’ve opted to undo the sweater and re-knit it using size 13 needles. Then it should fit! :D

10.28.13 Re-knitted, and now it’s fabulous! <3
