Notes

Well written pattern and really enjoyed the easy yoke bottom-up construction.

Cascade 220 Heathers was a good choice for a slight color variegation for the green. The yarn is very warm and blocks beautifully, which was useful since it was fairly snug before blocking. I would consider going up a size if you want to layer underneath.

Quick and fun. Really love the sweater!
