WORD TO THE WISE: (for my size) the first chart row does not line up with the collar ribbing! I kept thinking I was doing something wrong until I read comment number 9.

--I knit the button bands two at a time.
--Slipped edge is the outside edge not the edge that gets seamed to the sweater.
--To get the button holes to fall on the purl side, I seamed the button hole band with the cast off edge at the bottom.

09/09/13 - Blocking now!!! I love it!

09/04/13 - Finished knitting - just need to seam and add the buttons.

09/01/13 - Gah!!! Ran out of yarn on the button band.

08/25/13 - Finished up the body. I’d like to finish this up by the end of the week.

08/23/13 - Oh my goodness! I love this! I was so afraid to try it on because it LOOKED so tiny. But I was getting the correct gauge, so I kept plugging away. It’s so cute…I can’t wait to finish it!
