Notes

Very enjoyable project and the well-written instructions make it stress-free : )
Worked up in a few days after a waiting for my daughter to re-measure the arm and body length measurements.

I CO for the 2 year size but added length to fit the 4 year old recipient. The only change was to the neckline edge using #5 needle. I tried the pattern first and then a rolled edge and preferred the rolled. My first time using JSSBO and it worked really well! I used a mattress st to attach the pockets.

I liked working with the Vintage DK very much. The color is a rich shaded green rather than the more bluish color I was expecting. Actual color is closest to 2nd photo.
I’m planning on my the adult version Portside for my daughter and will use this or the worsted version depending on gauge.

Gauge: 22S = 4” after blocking.
Finished: 24” chest, 26” bottom circ, 11 1/2” sleeve from underarm, 8 1/2” upper arm, 6” neck opening, 16” top of shoulder to BO edge.
