Notes

07-27-2023

cast on for size 1, knit the ribbing extra long, then increased to the size 4 stitch count

when i placed my markers for raglans, i added xtra markers to make each raglan 8 stitches wide (borrowed those stitches from the front and back sections, left the sleeves as in pattern) because i plan on running a braided cable down the raglans

07-29-2023

finished the short rows and started the raglan yoke

the cables are looking nice so far, i’m thinking ahead to when i split for sleeves and i wanna try to connect the raglans under the arms somehow

08-19-2023

split for sleeves, ended up doing 2 extra raglans for the depth

under the sleeves, i’m connecting the cables into a V shape, i’ve just gotten to the vertex and still don’t really know how i’m gonna do it

08-22-2023

nearly done with the body, i think i want to do one more inch

i’m considering doing a split hem but idk yet

08-23-2023

finished the body, working on the ribbing.
i am doing a split hem, and i finished the back half, working on the front

i did 8 rows of 1x1 rib for the back hem before using a loose regular bind off. i did not change needle size

i think i’ll only do 6 rows for the front

08-24-2023

finished!

i ended up doing 6 rows of ribbing for the front hem.

for the sleeves, i simply picked up the stitches and knit 3 rows of 1x1 rib before binding off, which gave me a nice cap sleeve
