Seriously picked up this project yesterday. Completed the main piece and one sleeve. Working on the second sleeve and hope to also finish the collar. Sleeves require counting every row…since they aren’t rounds, so the sleeves take a bit more patience. Love the color of the yarn, but the loose twist of it sometimes catches when working stitches. Besides Riley (cat) chewing the pattern and yarn, no major setbacks or ripping.

Decreasing: pm in 40th st from each edge, decrease 2 sts after first 40 sts and 2 sts before last 40 sts.

Sleeves: worked first row through back bump of chain.

Collar: through the front loop means the third stitch when viewed from the front. After turning, will be just below the front loop in the top v’s.

Mark ALL increase stitches to help keep track of row counting.
