Notes

Insanely decided to make a sweater from 3 balls of sock yarn. I managed to finish it with only about 4 yards to go…!

I decided to save yarn by eliminating the nupps and placing beads instead to provide some visual interest.

I also decided to change the front shaping from a crew neck to a v-neck. I like that style much better, and also I would have run out of yarn if I had done a crew neck.
