Notes

Yarn was held doubled throughout

Re-wrote the entire pattern to be in the round

Hubby decided that he did not want a hoodie - so changed it to a crew neck

Followed the length for the largest size

Did not do garter ridges above the ribbing

Back

When piece measured 68 cm, I bound off the 15 center sts

Next row: Decreased 1 st on both sides of neck

Put shoulder sts on holder

Front

When piece measured 63 cm, I bound off the 11 center sts

Decreased 1 st on both sides of neck 3 times

Worked until piece was 70 cm

Used 3-needle bind-off for shoulder

Neckband

Did 3 rnds ribbing

Used the EZ sewn bind-off to ensure it would be stretchy

Sleeves*

Loads of issues here -mainly due to me trying to re-write the pattern to utilize Wendy Benard’s afterthought sleeves (which were great, by the way)

Because of my husband’s wonderful measuring skills, I had to rip back the sleeve I made today - in my frustration, I had to discard about 16 yrds because of the horrible knots

Used EZ sewn bind-off
