Notes

Ok. Pretty easy construction. The instructions on how to incorporate the increases in the cheveron chart are unclear. So i did them in st. St untill i had enough to do a full pattern repeat.

I like the kitchner seams. Clever.

Im done the body. I will seam everything before i seam in the sleeves. I like to see the fit. I will block to see how the moss st behaves as i would like the sleeves to be in moss.

doubled up on yarn as i only had dk weight
