Notes

July 22, 2024

Gauge: Mine was too small - about 3.5” for 20 stitches and 30 rows, even after blocking. I reknit with US 7 instead and got just under gauge so I’m going for it. Knitting medium size.

Didn’t do the german short rows at the beginning of the back yoke. Accidentally just knit the extra 2 stitches at the end of each row without doing the slip & yo technique. Oopsies. I don’t think it’ll be a big problem, because this sweater is so textured, but it does create small holes each row

Finished the body but decided it was too long. For the double ribbing, I did 7 times for a total of 14 rounds (instead of 10 for a total of 20). For the ribbing before binding off I did 6 times for a total of 12 rounds (instead of 9 times for a total of 18). Then did the extra 2 rounds of double knitting and bound off. Length is perfect now. Ever so slightly cropped. Used this tutorial for tubular bind off starting with a purl stitch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZp9Hmdkmek

Sleeves were tough to pick up because I slipped the first stitch of every round originally. I picked up 114 on one arm and 112 on another by doing a YO every 3rd stitch + a couple extra. Worked out great.
