Notes

This sweater began as a Corrina, but once it was knit up, I realized that the yarn was entirely wrong for it. I frogged it and have now knit a boxy. The yarn is a light fingering, so I knit it in a bigger size than needed. I cast on 420 stitches.

I feel like I have been knitting on this forever. I am ready to start the sleeves. I need to adjust the width of the armholes first. They are a little wider than expected. I should have considered how much length I took off the bottom when working the armholes. I am going to create short fake side seams for about an inch and a half at each underarm on the body.
