Notes

I followed directions for the smallest size in order to achieve the next size up as my gauge was slightly larger. I added an icord edge to the front and made buttonholes.

The shoulders had some looseness around the triangular shoulder shaping and this may be why they were very pokey and stuck up unattractively. It may have been a combination of my looser gauge and the low wool content of the yarn.

Another Raveler fixed a loose part on her project by applying boiling water so I tried that and it worked wonderfully - drew the loose stitches together and allowed the fabric to smooth out, no more pokey triangles!

The sweater is lovely and the yarn is one of our favorites!
